Insta Anon

Hi, I'm not sure if I'm upset for absolutely no reason here and I'd love some input if possible.

My best friend is VERY active on Instagram. Like, posts Instagram stories for every occasion, always makes collages at the end of the month about everything she's done, tags everybody she's spent time with that month. It's prompted me to do a very similar thing, and I post little collages at the end of the month too now. I posted one a few days ago that had two photos of the two of us and I'd tagged her in it. I only had like seven or eight photos, so those two were a considerable chunk of the post.

She posted hers today, with around twenty five photos on it, and I didn't appear once. We've seen each other multiple times, and talked on facetime a lot (I live in a different city so that's mostly how we interact.)

She posted everything else that she did, posted people multiple times, multiple pictures from the same night and not a single picture of us together.

I know that it probably wasn't malicious, and was probably just an oversight, but it's really upset me. I just feel a little overlooked.

I feel stupid being upset, because it's literally just a post. It's just that I know how much she cares about and scours over those posts, and it just makes me feel a little forgotten about.

Is it dumb to be upset about it?

Hi!

Honestly I’d be annoyed too! Like yeah social media shouldn’t be a big deal but she’s not acknowledging your friendship and that’s hurtful. I’ve had friends do similar things and it really sucks because it feels like you’re putting more effort in.

If you feel like she would be willing to listen and hear you out, I think you should talk to her. Explain that it's not just about the actual post, but like...acknowledgement. But if she doesn’t take it seriously, or tells you you’re being silly...I would reevaluate how much she's prioritizing you compared to how much you're prioritizing her.

Sending love!

outed anon

ap test anon

hi cas my first ap test is in around 2 weeks and i haven’t started studying yet im going to start today but im taking two this year and i only took one last year so i need to study twice as hard but last year i started studying like a month beforehand and im actually so stressed i feel constantly on the verge of tears but i keep procrastinating because there’s just so much to do and its overwhelming and i really need to pass both these tests and idk idk idk

i don’t even know this is all such a jumble of words i’m just really stressed i don’t even know

Hi!

I totally understand the feeling of being overwhelmed like this. Remember though--any studying is better than no studying. Even if you do ten minutes a night, you're giving yourself a much better chance of passing. Don't push yourself to the point of refusing to do anything. Just do little bits and remind yourself that those little bits are still HUGE. Set a timer, study for ten minutes, then take a ten minute break, and see how you feel. Repeat if you can. You got this, I believe in you!

no worries anon

No worries anon here

So… that friend hasn’t talked to me in some time. Like actually tried talking to me.

I miss having friendship with them, because they were my only irl that I had done rp with, they cosplayed and would understand my ships. They were in my fandoms and liked jegulus

Anyway

Despite that, I feel kinda free.

I do only have like… three irl friends tho, which is kinda sad. I mean, yeah, sure I’m introverted, but I like having friends.

Hi!

I totally understand this feeling. It's like, the loss of any friendship sucks because...it's a friend, and they once meant something to you. And when you have a small group of friends, it hits extra. But when that friend wasn't always respectful to you, it's also a relief. So it's a lot of mixed feelings. But maybe you can look at it like...now you have room in your life for someone who is better for you, you know?

Sending love <3

financial anon (new)

hi cas, i want to complain about my mother for a bit :(

she and my dad don’t have very high paying jobs, and we live in a pretty expensive area to live in, but we still have enough to live a comfortable life

however recently we’ve had less money and my mom seems to keep getting pissed at me for it (for context i cannot remember the last time i used her money for did something she needed to pay for other then like eating and shower ig)

my younger brother does THREE sports throughout the year and is also in boy scouts. the actual activities and equipment cost so much, and honestly that’s the reason we haven’t had as much money in the past few years

however, it’s always me she comes complaining to, never him. and it makes me so mad.

she complains about money when she should just idk take my brother out of one of his three sports??

and then she says she doesn’t have a favorite child like bsfr

oh and then of course when she’s mad about money she takes her anger out on us (not psychically but like verbally)

i have felt like a financial burden ever since i was eight becuse of her and she sometimes just makes me so angry

idk this rant probably doesn’t make much sense but yeah

Hi!

I'm so sorry your mom is taking those stresses out on you. You're right, it's not your responsibility or your fault. And while I do think it's probably a bit more complicated than just taking your brother out of sports, it shouldn't be something that you have to worry about.

I'm guessing you're the oldest? I feel like it's very common that parents pick one child, usually the oldest, to sort of...turn into the third parent. But that's not fair to you at all. And it's NOT your job to worry about those things. Is your mom the type of person who would get mad if you said something like "I'm a kid, so I don't really understand a lot of this finances stuff, maybe you can talk to x about it?" next time she talk to you? Because like....she really should be talking to an adult about it.

Sending love!

Hi hello I also don't have instagram but I desperately want to watch the watt instagram stories do you think there's any way you could post maybe your favorites? Thanks!

I’d love to! I’ll try to post it on my main later today so I can go grab the ones I’m a fan of, but don’t worry, I’ll give you your content! I don’t have instagram either, so I gotta thank @lesdukxs for screenrecording all the content and sending it to me!

instagrammer anon

im choosing to not reply/post your ask directly because i dont want other people to see your ask and then all rush to go message that person. I do have a personal instagram, and i’ll reach out to give them some educational resources, but i also want you to know that i can’t make that person change their husbandry. the best i can do is give them information and make sure they feel comfortable enough to have a conversation and ask questions and to not attack them or make them feel defensive, and i have to hope thats enough and accept it if it’s not.

(c) I SAW!!!!! i'm jsut lmao imagining steve "this song speaks to me. 'coming out of my cage and I’ve been doing just guys'" nancy & jonathan look at him in amusement. nancy: that's not how the song goes. jonathan: and what 'guys'? i thought i was your first bf. steve: you're right. 'coming out of my cage and i've been doing jonathan byers'. jonathan is so red and nancy is just laughing (steve corrects it again: coming out of my cage and I’ve been doing jonathan & nancy while kissing them lol)

YAAAAS I’m so glad you saw it!! I totally hc Steve is a memelord and is always up to date on all the memes. All three of them have tumblr blogs. Nancy’s is mostly fashion, intersectional feminism, and Discourse on fandom racism, racialized misogyny, and sexism,Jonathan’s is mostly aesthetic and photography, and Steve’s is just tons of shitposting and memes. And MCU. He also loved Wonder Woman (2017) and has a die hard crush on Chris Pine and Gal Gadot and sometimes reblogs Nancy’s Fandom Discourse posts to add cheesy gifs as a reply agreeing with the content

okay we’re gonna need a story time on those last two posts cause what the helly is elmo on 👀

-insta anon

Dhakdhajdh sorry to leave you hanging lmao I've been a busy man recently

Basically, he's just been continuing his self-appointed challenge of trying to get me to tap out purely through tkling.

I kinda provoked him at one point and was running away but he ended up getting me trapped in the corner against two walls and I was pressing my back into the gap and kinda pushing his shoulders away so he couldn't get to me.

Unfortunately eventually he got through and kinda softly shoulder barged me which half lifted me onto my tiptoes and kept me there while he clawed into my ribs. I didn't realise it until it happened but I curled my legs up defensively and I didn't fall?? He could keep me propped up with his shoulder so I was kinda just uselessly flailing around?

And then the hip bone thing was another night we were chilling on this comfy flat thing halfway between a couch and a bed and he started tkling me again (I probably did something to provoke it tho lmao), and I kinda half shimmy myself off but he grabs me as my shoulders are on the floor but my lower back and legs are still up on the comfy thing so I'm fully stretched out and he then just tkled either my stomach, sides, armpits, or hips until I didn't have the energy to try and muscle a situp into him to fight him off.

Both times very fun hehe 😁 I love him sm

Hopefully will have more stories soon, Wednesdays tend to be times when I get tkled the most often so hehe we'll see

really really hoping i get birthday tickles

-insta anon

Ooo I'm hoping for you anon !!!!

[cantsaythetword]

it’s literally so bad how red i get like it needs to stop 😔💔

while i was out w her we did this free colour analysis that a shop was offering and when i tell you my face went bright red while i was doing my turn.

after we left my friend pointed it out and i had to blame it on the fact that the shop was warm (which it’s most definitely wasn’t).

-insta anon

Agdkagsjagdh lmao I feel you, I used to be so flustered when my cool guy friend asked why I'd flinch or jolt when he brushed/poked me

Not that I've gotten any less flustered, he just now knows exactly why and has a lot of fun teasing me about it 😭😭
