I had to learn a couple times due to my 80s and 90s female socialization. Truly the worst era for women dating! I’m glad you learned and never looked back! I have no choice but to stan!

In pop culture, however, it was pick-me central those decades. Last week we were posting the worst pick me picks of the 90s! Topanga, Sex in the City, Felicity... ugh

Topanga was from Boy Meets World! Both her and Felicity gave up going away to amazing school and bettering themselves for man children who didn’t deserve them.
I’m not from the states so I already grew up in a misogynistic culture but when I moved to the states I had pick-me pop culture “raise me” as far as boys go bc that’s not something that was discussed in my family or with my mom. It was a terrible pick-your-own adventure disaster 🙃 feminism came later for me lol.

Oh yeah I’m 35 now lol but tv helped me with English at the time so I watched all these shows as a teen. I’ve also dated internationally and honestly there isn’t just one culture of guys that has value, it really comes down to finding an individual. Needle in a haystack. I’m good though, I don’t have time for that kind of searching game!

I’m here now. Eating window is like 4pm to 10pm. Not on purpose, just been stressed AF safety planning. It’s not healthy but it’s only temporary. There is freedom on the other side of this all ❤️

I shed some extra pounds thanks to a man, as well. So I guess someone being a jerk to you has that benefit, at least.

This is me!!! I’ve been unable to eat properly for two years!! And he still criticised me for being thin and that I have no ass! I’m still on the road to recovery but even this morning I threw up from stress .. looking forward to enjoying food again

Can confirm that I don't feel hungry anymore after what I let an LVM do to me. Went down a size in pants.

Happens to me every time I try and date. Anxiety.

😂💀 "seem clean"
[–]ldnsurvivalFDS Newbie24 points25 points26 points 6 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Never understood why I was always lighter when I was with my exes. Retrospectively I realise it was the stress keeping the weight off. Safe to say it the weight has gone back on a bit now though but at least I'm not running myself ragged over useless men.

It’s one thing if you are maintaining a healthy lifestyle and working out, but it’s a complete other thing if you are so anxious that you can’t eat and your body starts breaking down fat and muscle. It’s also incredibly aging! Health above all else.
[–]ldnsurvivalFDS Newbie6 points7 points8 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
100% agree. All that stress of combatting chronic disappointment. Exhausting. I don't miss it.

In my cases, they ate all my food.

Women don't often orgasm with men or even have good sex with them and then wonder why their desire wanes in an LTR.

I'm confused at "making your apartment seem clean"
[–]BalkankaFDS Disciple[S] 56 points57 points58 points 6 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
You clean up before he comes over to hide your mess lol so the apartment stays fairly clean looking OR in comparison to how he lives like a pig, your own apartment seems clean.
[–]miz_nycFDS Newbie16 points17 points18 points 6 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
LOL Oh! Makes sense.

Aw looks like we are getting brigaded already with downvotes. Some poor keyboard warrior is sitting on “new” downvoting Lolol.

For some men, being a troll is their only hobby and they are really dedicated 😂
[–]BalkankaFDS Disciple[S] 9 points10 points11 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I just can’t even imagine what it would be like to live that life.
[–]CyanCayenneFDS Newbie14 points15 points16 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I think it means your apartment seems clean compared to his.

This is no good for me, I eat my trauma.
[–]CyanCayenneFDS Newbie8 points9 points10 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Ugh I know right.

That comment is exceptionally true 🤣

Men make EVERYWHERE look dirtier and messier. And 99,9% of them are incapable of making a woman orgasm.
[–]venomous_gFDS Newbie9 points10 points11 points 6 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Eh, relationship related depression (Not with a man) made me fat, but I’m naturally a chunky bitch that loves food. Guess it depends lol.
