I don’t know what to do anymore, I just want to feel pretty. I’ve been trying to lose weight since I was 11 and nothing is sticking.

My mental health is so shitty and it doesn’t help that I developed super early on. Like 4th grade early on.

>!I’m 16, 4’11 and 139 pounds. I cannot get below 137 no matter how much I starve, exercise and do literally anything. It’s infuriating!<.

I feel like a failure, I am a failure because I know if I’m fat I won’t be worthy enough to date anyone and that fucking sucks.

My type is big, not fat big but soft muscles and really big build. But even then I still don’t feel skinny enough to date anyone like that.

I want them to be able to pick me up or do something fun together without me feeling bad that they’re picking up so much weight.

It would be different if I was taller, maybe then things would level out.

I’m 16 F and my two friends who are dating each other are 16 M and 17 F. I’m only adding this detail to the story because I think it’s relevant, but my friend is trans.

I met, let’s call him John in 2024 during freshman year. Really sweet guy, invited me into his friend group, seemed really solid

He was dating another girl at the time and apparently she cheated on him a bunch. Now knowing how he acts I wonder how much of this was true.

He started dating Lily shortly after breaking up with that girl. We talking quite often and I’d consider him a close friend. She went to another school.

One night we were hanging out and he asked if I wanted to go to a football game and meet her. He wanted me to go to another one the next day more than he wanted me to go to this one because I really wanted to meet his gf.

Beforehand he warned me that she’s really possessive and that she can get antsy around him being around other girls. I had no interest in him so I knew all I had to do was make sure I kept my distance a little bit.

When I got there, I realized that wasn’t true at all. She was having a bad night and so at first, I thought he was right because she was a little upset. But when I started talking to her and messaging her, I realized that she was one of the sweetest people ever.

I don’t think the word possessive was even in her vocabulary. She had a really hard time making friends at her other school so she valued the relationship she had with John.

Later on, Lily switched to online school for him, so she could hang out with him more since she wasn’t making any friends at her school.

When we started talking more, I learned a little bit more about their relationship. And what I heard about was not something you ever wanna hear about from someone you care about.

He consistently went behind her back and messaged girls he didn’t know.
Constantly complained about her she never did enough in their relationship and got upset that she didn’t spend a bunch of money on him even though her dad has control over her credit card.

And the worst of it all watched porn behind her back. Claiming that he was trying to figure out his sexuality.

That one hit me super hard. As a kid of divorced parents that exact situation happened to my mother, and I saw how it affected her and her mental health.

The problem is, John is insecure. He craves validation from people because he’s trans and not even his parents accept him. Which is absolutely awful and no one should have to go through that but treating a person like this because of that is unacceptable.

There was one instance where a coworker was extremely rude to lily and flirted with John. And when Lily expressed her discomfort, John still went behind her back got that girl’s phone number and started texting her on a daily basis.

There were multiple instances of him begging for sex, Lily had some health issues and he got pissed at her for it because it meant they couldn’t have sex.

Despite all this, and despite how many times I’ve begged her to break up with him, she still stays. And I know people have no tolerance for people in bad relationships but with Lily I really care about her.

She has mental health issues too, so she consistently tells herself that she’s crazy for feeling upset about the things he’s done to her.

Lately they’ve “made up” and she says he’s gonna turn over a new leaf. She also mentioned that he missed me and wanted to hang out with me more.

I don’t wanna hang out with him more. I don’t wanna hang out with him at all. I wanna stop being friends with him, but if I stop being friends with him, then Lily will stop being friends with me.

I don’t know what to do anymore, I just want her to be safe.

I’m (16F) and I’ve been an atheist for 2 years in my Christian family. My father (now no contact) was a worship leader and my family was heavily involved in the church during my upbringing.

I always thought church was boring. I believed it because I was 6 but I really didn’t like going. I thought everybody in the world was Christian and was appalled to meet people who weren’t.

I think the worst part was the worship music. I’m fine with gospel because it sounds like it actually has soul, but the new modern stuff sounds so repetitive and fake to me.

I always hear that the reason people join church is because of the feelings they get when listening to worship music. All I can think is, “literally how?”

It sounds so cultish and weird, the melodies are all extremely similar. Weirdly the only one I can stand is “Even Then” but (no pun intended) even then I still cringe at it.

Does anybody share a similar experience?

Please please please idc how crazy I need to drop 30 pounds for summer STAT, I’m 4’11 and 140 pounds please help

Hi! My name is KJ, and I want to form a band! I sing, I’d say I’m about an alto. I can play basic chords on the piano and I songwrite!
I usually write slower songs but I really wanna challenge myself and collaborate with other people! Please comment or message me if you’re interested! (I’m a beginner producer on Bandlab but I’m willing to learn to use other DAW’s!)

I’m 4’11 and 140 pounds, I’m trying to lose weight but for some reason I can’t get under 139. Tips?

My brother (13F) and me (16F) live in the basement along with my two other older stepbrothers. My brother has health issues with that for a while now, he goes to the dr. for it.

My problem is the smell of his room and bathroom. It REEKS of pee.

It’s embarrassing to bring my friends over because they can smell his bathroom since it’s right by my bedroom (because me and only 3 family members have good smelling rooms bc the rest of the house smells like dog)

So I’m just wondering how to get the smell out, I’m thinking of having my mom shampoo his carpets and maybe I can mop his walls? His sheets are cleaned regularly since they get pee on them but he just drops them on the floor.

I’m going insane, I’m neurodivergent and extremely sensitive to smells so the smell of his bathroom makes it hard to sleep sometimes, thoughts?
