The last one 404'd, can we please have another one? I know you all have some kind of cosplay frustration you want to let out.
| >> | No.6785013 A day of shopping for supplies: >need padded bra and leggings >all padded bras I see give me torpedo tits >no leggings in my size, only XS and XL >need gold paint >last three art stores I tried don't stock the brand >call around town >one store has it >sold out of my colour, and my colour alone >need faux fur in white, black, and gray for cosplay >want to get them all together to be sure they match >can never find white and gray, only black >cave and buy the nicest black I see, which is pretty shitty >a month later, finally find gray, buy it, still pretty shitty >in the meantime, have found all kinds of insane colours/prints but never the basics >this shopping trip: decide to comb every store in the fashion district for white fur >finally find it two hours later, in the 16th store I visit >pefect, soft, dense, fluffly >they also have that fabric in black and gray, get all three
A bit upset I wasted my money on the first black and gray, but this fur is so goddamn soft I just want to cover my whole bed in it and wear it every day. And I'm so mad I spent about 4-5 hours out that day when I expected everything to be easy to find. I was really frustrated by the time I found my fur. Going back out today to look for the gold paint because I can't progress on my cosplay until I have it. As for the bra, I think I'll just go Precious mode and sculpt tits out of foam, and sew them onto my bra. |

Plus, all that quilted, riveted space. My sewing machine couldn't take a material sturdy enough to stand up properly. Someday Sets, someday.
>>6788285 To be fair, they've never been in English and demons aside, it's mostly dated school uniforms. Though I did, of all things, see a Hazama costume a few years ago at a con that people were calling Michael Jackson. Felt bad for them. |
| >> | No.6791374 >want to lose weight for lolita >ask my mother for tips >"every other day you can only have a piece of toast and you must work out for 5 hours a night or else you will never be pretty." >I want to lose weight not be anorexic.
>Lose circulation to legs from sitting weird >Fall over >Mom: "Oh good girl, I see you haven't eaten today, you're on the right track, good job."
>Start eating smaller portions >Friends: "OMG ARE YOU ANOREXIC, ANON-CHAN, PLEASE DON'T DO THAT TO YOURSELF!"
>Period cramps >Nurse: "OMG ANON-CHAN IT IS BECAUSE YOU ARE OVERWEIGHT/ANOREXIC" every time I go it changes, "THAT IS NOT HEALTHY, YOU WILL DIE."
All I want to do is lose weight for lolita. But apparently eating healthy is bad for you, and at this rate, with someone yelling at me every five minutes, I feel like I'll never lose the weight and it frustrates me. |

Sweetheart. Baby. Please.
You're 15. Dear God, too soon for BDSM.
Even if you weren't, it doesn't matter what you might have said or done at the beginning. When the line is crossed, it's crossed, and then it's time to stop. If you were crying and squirming, he should have stopped. Once you asked him to untie you, WHILE CRYING, he should have fucking stopped.
He let his friend touch you, I assume without your permission. For god's sake, you were tied up!
I was in a relationship like this for five years. God, don't make the same mistake I did. You're too young.
Get out while you can. |
| >> | No.6791776 >>6791730 You are 15. Your life is just beginning. It's not the end of the world, in fact breaking up with this douchenugget might be a great start for you, in fact. You sound so adorable, and you deserve to treat yourself. Not serve some asshole's sexual appetite. Lay off BDSM for a while, don't be a victim of statutory rape, depending on where you live, and most importantly once you realize that he is what he is, do not hate him. Just act like you never knew him. By hating him, you might as well be stabbing yourself right in the heart. It only kills you if you dwell over it. Find someone who loves you. Truly, loves you. Please, also, date someone your age. When you're young, you cannot date higher. 90% chance they're like this asshole. You'll probably feel really refreshed after dumping him anyway. Good luck, Anon. |
| >> | No.6791778 >>6791694 Unless your parents are super ultra crazy evangelical Christians, your parents will not hate or ostracize you for making a mistake. You are young, mistakes are what young people do. Old people do them too, but generally out of neglect and not naivete.
Tell them he is coercing you to do things that you don't want to do. Do this BEFORE breaking up with your boyfriend. You WILL need their support, as that is your parents jobs as parents; to support you through your mistakes and help you grow. They will probably give you a longwinded lecture and lots of advice. Attempt to listen to the lecture and heed the advice. Then proceed with breaking up with your boyfriend. Talk to him somewhere away from school, but in a safe place where your parents will know where you are. Tell him how you feel, about the sex, about his two-faced attitude, about everything. Wait for fallout. It'll be shitty, but at least you'll have your family to back you up. In fact, if you can discuss this in front of a counselor or therapist or someone like that that you trust, you can get a neutral party to keep the entire thing from blowing up into a massive shitstorm, as it seems like he's probably too much of a two-faced sneak to act up in front of an "authority figure". |
| >> | No.6791783 File: 354 KB, 352x288, hurrdurrimahoers.gif [Show reposts] Image reverse search: [iqdb] [google] How fucking stupid my brother's girlfriends are. He's a super awesome BF to them and whenever a Birthday/Christmas/con event comes up, he'll basically buy them whatever outfits they chose.
ANYTHING. Legit, he'll spend a large amount of cash on 'em, okay.
One wanted a lolita dress ((she'd never had one before)) and needed help picking one out, so my brother asked me to help her, since he knows I know about the fashion. I directed her to Angelic Pretty, Baby, all the good brandz.
She picked fucking Milanoo.
I begged her to at least purchase something from Bodyline.
She picked. Fucking. Milanoo.
Another GF comes along, some thing, except she wants an Angel Stocking cosplay. Thirty days before the con. She picks one from freakin' HelloCosplay or some other bullshit online 'commissioner' site even though, if she had've planned ahead of time, my brother would have paid an ACTUAL commissioner to make her something near perfection.
I just ... I just don't understand it. I don't.
Although on the upside, he does the same thing for me sometimes for special events, and I'm always sure to choose the best, because he insists.
I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SOMEONE WOULDN'T CHOOSE THE BEST WHEN OFFERED THOUGH FFS |
| >> | No.6793253 >>6791730 >I'm just scared that he's going to tell everyone I know what we did. I'm just scared I won't be able to find another guy, okay? Any reasonable individual, upon hearing what happened between you two, will think poorly of him, not of you. A teenage couple having sex is normal. A guy letting one of his friends touch his girlfriend without her permission is not normal. If he talks shit about you, just explain what actually happened. The few people who may look down on you for it are shitty people who aren't worth associating with in the first place. As for the not-finding-a-boyfriend piece, trust me, even if it makes things awkward for the next year or two (although it probably won't), shit will be a-okay once you get into college. To be frank, nearly all high-school relationships are destined to fail regardless - it's the learning-the-ropes-of-relationships phase, and god knows we all had one or two that we weren't proud of (protip for any youngins out there; if she cuts herself in front of you, ABORT).
Anyway, to get back onto the cosplay-vent thing, I sometimes don't even know why I cosplay. I mean, I love making armor and props and whatnot, but it seems like every cosplay group I encounter is either swarming with weeaboos or made up of petty fucks. Are sane people really that hard to find in this hobby? |
| >> | No.6794690 My local cosplay community is becoming awful.
There's too many attention whores digging for popularity and it's making everyone overly competitive over nothing. Everyone's splintering into these little groups where they feel the need to give themselves fancy names and self-market, and half the time their costumes aren't even that impressive, it's just vain chicks who have tolerant man-candy to help them and are friends with good photographers or "popular" cosplayers they can name-drop.
There's way too many events and most of them are cookie-cutter and mediocre because every idiot thinks they can run their own event or con. And dozens and dozens of our cosplayers still feel the need to go to EVERY. SINGLE. ONE OF THEM because it's an excuse to get cameras shoved in their face. It's like they can't ever say no or learn to budget their finances. Fuck, I've seen local cosplayers screw up their lives because they chose to live outside their means and LULZ DO ALL OF THE CONS PARTY EVERYDAY, and are still planning cons and still pretending to be super-popular even though they're in debt, in the red and forced to move into family members' basements because their HOBBY keeps them from paying living expenses like food, rent and bills.
We've got some really persistent creepers who've stuck around for years because people are willing to play whiteknight for the ego trip that comes with a "devil's advocate" routine. There's some shitty cosplay charity groups that raise meager, minimal amounts and the actual charity part is just a pretense to get into cons for free. And in general, all but one or two of the genuinely popular cosplayers our community has produced have been huge assholes.
The ironic part being, my community is known for being "omg so nice~"
I probably just described about 90% of the communities in North America, but whatever. |
