| I am pretty but at one point in my life, I gained enough weight that I wasn't considered attractive anymore. It was an interesting experience because there was an unmistakeable shift in attitude from other people, mostly men. I got less attention, people were not smiling as much and didn't seem as e... |

| The problem is that I never found that kind of truly loving woman. Every time I do they friend zone me and are only interested in being truly loving to someone other than me. I just find myself back at chasing after superficial attraction desperately trying to find someone that makes me feel like t... |

| I'm an INFJ. I always thought the type sounded a lot like a childhood abuse survivor. I even made a thread on Reddit asking other INFJs what their experiences were. Very many of them had suffered abuse and neglect. |

| I don't even know how to signal romantic interest. I can't tell what's too much and what's too little. If I don't signal interest clearly enough they're clueless, but if I overdo it it can be interpreted as creepy, needy, or harassment. On one hand, women hate it when a guy they're not into won't t... |

| I dunno. This thread makes me feel like the OP is solely focused on his needs and wants but doesn't pay much attention to women he's trying to approach as individuals. As a woman, I've never been able to identify much with what evolutionary biology supposes I must want, I think it's just a bunch of ... |

| No. Quite the contrary, I dread the change in attitude from other people that it would have brought on. My emotionally immature parents would not have handled it well. Others seem to think of me as smart and capable if just a bit shy and nerdy. I've always powered through anything that came my way -... |

| I think all the behavioral categories and psychological profiles of "disorders" are works in progress which science and medicine just barely understand. We certainly know this is true for autism. I don't think the other behavioral "sciences" are much more advanced in knowledge t... |

| I've been thinking about these things too. For a while, I thought my mom could have BPD. Now that I'm reading more about autism, I strongly suspect I am autistic (Cynthia Kim is basically me) and that my mom also might have autistic traits and has never been able to cope. But obviously, I cannot dia... |

| I've done it for quite some time. I'm basically only eating meat (and other animals products) and veggies. It is important to keep snacks on hand so you don't reach for carby stuff that's always more convenient to grab from the store when you're tired or in a hurry. Right now, I have a jar of jalape... |

| As for lingerie, there are many brands in the "indie lingerie" category that make bralettes from light, stretchy materials and in comfy fits. I've heard good things about brands like Flash You and Me, Toru & Naoko etc. Also Aerie (an American Eagle brand), especially for bigger cup siz... |

| I too feel like it would be throwing out the baby with the bathwater, but others I have talked to about it said it sounds like we are sexually incompatible and therefore, should break up, if they are correct? I mean I asked for their opinion and that's what they gave me. I try to communicate things... |
