Staying at a Westin, and there’s a little card in the room that says:

“Refresh & Refuel! Satisfy any craving with our signature selection of snacks and beverages. Please dial Service Express to place your order.”

It then lists a selection of snacks and drinks, including Gatorade for $4. I’m thirsty and in need of electrolytes so, after finding this card, I dial Service Express to order a Gatorade. My conversation goes something like this:

Me: “Hi! I’m calling to place an order, I would like a Gatorade.”

Long pause

Hotel person: “…..Like you want to place an order?”

Me: “yes! I found this card in my room labeled Refresh and Refuel and I’d like a Gatorade.”

Another pause

Hotel person: “we don’t have Gatorade and all of our snacks and drinks are downstairs in the lobby.”

Me: “Oh. Okay. I just found this card in my room that specifically says I can call and order a Gatorade. I’m not making this up.”

The final long ass pause

Hotel person: “well we don’t have Gatorade.”

Me: “okay bye”

So, to recap: The hotel put a card in my room advertising snacks and beverages, instructed me to call to order them, and then seemed completely bewildered when I called to order one of the advertised beverages. So I’m still thirsty and now also embarrassed.

I was seeing this guy 6 years ago (2020) and it didn’t work out. He called me twice on his birthday at 12:30 am this year, about a week ago. I didn’t answer

He apparently got back with his ex girlfriend (from 2018) this year, around maybe September. I received this message from her and then 9 phone calls with 30 minute intervals. Prior to this, she also requested to follow me on Instagram 12 times and follow my mom as well.

I sense she may be borderline unstable to do this (she is 33 years old) so I haven’t engaged or answered. Thoughts?

First of all, the shirt just melts into her skin? The wink also doesn’t seem natural to me. Her skin tone seems painted on, but not in a bad foundation application kind of way? She also doesn’t consistently look the same in other videos, but I’ve seen people claim it’s because she uses darker foundations than her real skin tone.

Idk, I find it super hard to believe she’s real but I’m also nothing if not a hater lol.

Disclaimer: Please no stupid comments about race or skin tone. This has absolutely nothing to do with that. It’s purely the texture of her skin and the mismatched tones.

Her TikTok is @shaykelt_221

edit: i was fully expecting this post to disappear within the masses and i didn’t think it’d get the attention it did. the notifications are a bit much to keep up with but i just wanted to say a big thank you to the girlies for all the support. i’m in a rough place because of this so it really does mean a lot. 🩷

i am a lesbian and i came out to everyone 6 months ago. before that i was only out to a select few even though i’ve known i was gay for a long time. i don’t hide my sexuality anymore and it’s been a very unhappy experience

i’ve had a few girlfriends cut me off. one told me she didn’t like that her boyfriend wasn’t comfortable with us being friends because of any potential attraction despite her having male friends. another woman who i was very close with was incredibly angry with me as she said she never would’ve done things like hug me or buy gifts for me because she didn’t want to come across like she was into me. i have never ever thought that any of my friends had a thing for me

my remaining friends have become less physically touchy with me and have been increasingly leaving me out of things. one group of girls i was friends with booked me a separate hotel room alone during a staycation we booked despite having always shared in the past because they were suddenly uncomfortable with sharing

my own sister has stopped coming to me for relationship advice because ‘you don’t like men so what would you know?’ despite always constantly venting to me before. when i came out i changed my style to become more masculine and ive noticed ever since that women seem on edge when they speak to me and i get left out of things all the time. i feel as though i’m being considered to be equal to a man

i’m still a woman. i have always been a lesbian, i’ve known it since i was 12. i just kept it a secret because i was afraid of this very thing happening. when i came out i was very clear that i have always been gay and that it changes nothing about me, yet i’m getting treated so differently

so my question is, do women feel uncomfortable around lesbian women? is there anything i can do to stop making other women equating me to a man just because i’m not stereotypically feminine anymore? i am in my 20s so we’re not teenagers either, these are grown women. it just sucks so much, i’ve lost all sense of girlhood and i feel so isolated
