u/thats_mytype

i realised lately that im always the one initiating with majority of my friendships like hangouts or casual conversation like its always me putting in the effort and im getting sick and tired of it cause i feel like i look desperate even tho i know im not. i just want a circle that understands that its not always me who has to initiate hangouts or anything like that and we can talk daily and hangout a lot or often without me having to put constant effort then they disappear. im just so tired of being a good person because at this rate it isnt even worth it in anything.

im 20f local and i study in UOWD about to start my final year. i pretty much don’t see my friends anymore (they either graduated or just got extremely busy) and ngl uni gets lonely af like i just wanna hangout and vibe with someone like-minded🥲🥲🥲

p.s. if you’re a guy DONT APPROACH ME I WONT REPLY

not just reddit, but i mean in general. since i was a kid i’ve always found it hard to make girl friends and even a few of them were mean to me and the guys were basically nicer to me than them (until 7th grade started then it became the opposite).

even right now being in uni, i find it hard making girl friends even tho there’s MANY here. maybe cause my vibes aren’t entirely “girl-like”??? im the type that enjoys low budget hangouts such as karak hangouts, cafeteria even if its rashid ali, chilling in the car, once in a blue moon going to a board game cafe and play long and loud games. obviously if there is a nice restaurant i wanna try i’d go for that too, but realistically im a person with low budget hangouts which is why 90% of the time i prefer going out alone because i haven’t met anyone with the same exact vibes as i do. plus, things being extremely expensive in dubai really doesn’t help my case either😭 i cut off nearly all my friendships with guys because i just don’t feel the necessity to have many male interactions anymore.

im in my final year of uni and i really do want to make the best out of it but cant seem to do that as i just attend my classes then go eat outside if necessary then go back home, it gets pretty boring icl. im not trying to sound like a pick me but its just something that seriously bothers me and i wish i could find someone as the same vibe as me.

رايكم!!!

im 20F and i’ve been diagnosed with PCOS a couple of months ago. i take meds and go to check-ups so everything so far is stabilised. my real concern is that i’ve seen that PCOS usually affects fertility and even in some cases causes infertility which is my biggest fear because my one dream in the world is to become a mother. how did it affect you? i kind of need reassurance lol

this story happened around 5 years ago but i still feel immense regret.

one day i was heading to my ex best friend’s house and her older sister (who is also around my age) opened the door and told me that she wasn’t here and that she had gone out.

since her sister and i had also had a few conversations but i wouldn’t deem her my friend, i went inside and hung out with her instead. everything was fine until we started talking about homophobia and i mentioned how homophobic her sister is and she agreed.

i don’t even recall how the conversation led to this but her sister started asking me to tell her the things her sister does for the sake of “helping her”, i refused at first and said i don’t want to backstab my best friend, but her sister kept insisting me to tell her and in the end i gave in and told her nearly everything she does.

i swear my intention was just to help and her sister wouldn’t leave me alone until i said something. she was shocked and then proceeded to tell me about how her sister is selfish and arrogant and is always flexing on her other sisters (they are 5 girls and 1 boy altogether) about how she’s the only slim and tall one in the house and she has a crappy attitude towards her parents. that shocked me too because she didn’t seem that kind of person at all. i was so infuriated that my stupid ass unfollowed her everywhere without saying anything even and she had texted me afterwards but i ignored, and i just stayed friends with her sister.

around 2 months after this i felt super guilty and texted my ex best friend and told her the truth about everything. she obviously was super upset and snapped at me and told me that “i ruined my her” and that she would never forgive me. i genuinely felt so guilty i couldn’t sleep for days and weeks it took me months to get over it.

then shortly after that i went to their house to meet up with her sister and she was obviously home but kept ignoring me. i told her sister that i admitted the truth because i felt super guilty and i basically backstabbed my best friend of 3 years. her sister kept telling me that i did the right thing because i wanted to help her to stop her from going the wrong way; but there were other ways i could do to help her stop from going the wrong way instead of blatantly snitching on her to her older sister.

anyways so her older sister went to her room and tried convincing her to let me at least talk to her and explain why i did that and after screaming and fighting she agreed. i went into her room and burst into tears and tried explaining that my intention was to help and that her sister kept pressuring me so much i couldn’t handle it anymore. she took the reason as BS and started calling me a snake and all of that other stuff, in which i can’t blame her i basically destroyed the poor girl. apparently after what had happened her phone got taken away for a few days by her sister and another elder sister without parents knowing what was going on.

i tried asking her to at least forgive me like we didn’t have to be friends again but at least her forgiveness but she never did. she just told me to move on and thats it. we ended it at that.

i noticed that her older sister was lowkey being disrespectful to her mom and my ex bestfriend herself that her sister was worse than i thought and i seemingly believed her i can’t lie. to sum it all up i ended up cutting off the older sister too because turned out to be a so-not great person and also because of the immense guilt i felt at that time.

this community is so dead so im wondering if there’s any girl who lives close by so we can meet up!!! 20F btw (18+ only)

I (20F) have been dating the love of my life (23M) for about 10 months now.

When we met for the very first time several months, we planned to chill in his car for a bit then head to the mall.

I was on my period that day (day 1) and I was in excruciating pain but still decided to meet him since it’s not everyday I can see him, so I said why not.

I saw his car had reached and when I stepped inside to the passenger seat, he hugged me so tight and immediately bursts into tears for at least 5 minutes
and I couldn’t even register what happened because I was already in pain but I obviously went in for the hug and I felt a waterfall on my shoulder.

This moment still plays in my head and makes me super emotional cause I have never felt loved like this before.

Im a 20F darkskin and around 3 years ago I got sun burnt BAD because I wasn’t applying much sun screen and now my face is a completely different colour than my face. I can’t lie I look better when Im darker but not when my skin is at an uneven tone😅 I want my skin to stabilise again. Can someone help me out?

20F bisexual looking for genuine friendships in dubai with lesbian and/or bi girls ONLY. could be a little fwb if we really get along😛😛😛 (only people between 2003-2007)

ever since i started my third year of uni i lost a few of my friends and one of them was my best friend (the friendship got toxic and i had to end it), i felt like i had no special person to be with 24/7. i have a lot of friends and quite a few close ones and some i knew for 10+ years but there isn’t that “best friend” connection, or someone i can talk to 24/7 and 365 days a year and never be separated from each other and be considered as sisters. because of the amount of issues that happened in my life i’ve become very picky on who i want to be friends with which is my right but at the same time it makes me sad because i feel like i won’t ever have that sisterly friendship like i did before ever again. is anyone in this current situation or just me?

P.S. this post is a genuine rant and not some bait to look for friends, but anyone is welcome to message me for whatever i don’t bite.

this feels weird, but growing up i always loved playing rough and acting like a boy but couldn’t do it completely because my family is kinda strict (muslim household), it decreased a lot by the age of 15. after turning 15, i tried to get myself into feminine stuff such as dressing up, applying the most basic makeup ever, and so on so forth, but it still feels wrong to me. despite all of this, i’ve been in a serious relationship for nearly 10 months since i decided to give it a try, and he is the biggest blessing that has ever appeared in my life. i honestly don’t know how he loves me despite all my odd flaws and mental health issues. is this normal? can you still be loved like a queen even as a tomboy? i love him to death but at the same time i still don’t know how this happened.

So basically Im (20F)and I got diagnosed with PCOS back in May this year and Im currently on hormonal pills to get things back on track.

So in my most recent period which was done about 11 days ago I’ve been experiencing breast pain (started a few days before my period came) and my breasts still hurt to this minute and the pain is unbearable its a challenge sleeping at night and it just rapidly grew in size in the strangest way possible, its frustrating me because I finished my period literally 11 days ago so the breast pain is supposed to stop until a week or few days before my next period. Is this normal? What do I do about it? Its seriously bothering me.

this post feels a little odd but i just felt the urge to rant.

these days ive been experiencing strange mood swings and im not in the mood for anyone or anything, idk if its because finals are nearing by so im just stressed out but genuinely this feeling is killing me. even my social skills have gone down the drain i can no longer make friends as easily as how i used to do it before in my first year of uni (im currently in my last sem of third year). everytime i try making good friends whether online or in real life and they dont have the same exact thinking or maturity as me i get extremely annoyed and try to back away, especially when i notice this person is extremely clingy (i ended a friendship because of this and i got a عقدة from it due to other personal reasons). im trying my best to be open to everyone but i literally just can’t like i just became extremely picky on who i really want to be with but i just can’t seem to find the person who matches my exact energy. its probably a matter of trust issues, but i dont know exactly. im superrrr frustrated with everyone and everything and i dont like this feeling and i wish i could get rid of it. many things had happened to me over the time period during uni that led me to being like this and i wanna stop it but idk how.

i finished my period about a week ago and my chest still hurts like hell to the point sleeping at night is a challenge (im a size 34DD so they feel like wrecking balls). it hurts so bad and my chest is so heavy how do i stop this💔💔💔
