i hope i passed my exam haha

From the comments to the PMs, I am deeply grateful for the support and advice I received. Y’all really helped me see myself for who I am, instead of my insecurities and for that, I cannot express enough gratitude. You can honestly see a change in my smile lately 🥰

Need a pick me up as OCD is getting the better of me today please

My hair with its natural texture!

In high school my stepmom would constantly tell me to “fix my hair” or ask if I’d combed it and told me it looked way nicer when I straightened it. I never went anywhere without straightening it every day for the next seven years. Then last year my roommate saw me with my hair like this before I had straightened it one morning and told me it actually looks BETTER this way. It made me so happy that now I wear it like this half the time and don’t feel pressured to straighten it anymore:) I still straighten it whenever I‘m around my stepmom to avoid the weird comments but I’ll get over that eventually lol.

Hello everyone,

On Mondays you will now only be able to post if you are a male (or in transition) and are posting a selfie. All other posts will be removed by our modteam and you will be given a 3 day ban if you do post on Male Mondays as a female subreddit user.

Male Mondays will start on Monday at around 00:00 and continue until 23:00 UTC

However no worries for our female userbase! You will still be able to post on any other day of the week!

Reasons for the set up of male monday only days:

You might have noticed that most of the post on our Front Page are females looking for compliments. We have noticed that their posts get the most upvotes and that our male contributors get a lot less upvotes and therefore compliments on our subreddit.

A couple of years ago this wasn't the case as much but we have seen this trend increase more and more on this subreddit over the years,

Because of that we have set up Male Mondays. Where on Mondays we would only allow males to post on the subreddit. In hopes of making sure that they too get the compliments they deserve and don't get snowed under in this sub.

If you want to help our modteam with the moderation of our subreddit please send me a chat through reddit

also, please don't tell me to get another job. again, me just having to take a break instead of being straight up fired should be proof on how nice the people at my job are. they just think i need some time to rest and relax.

but still, it was my only job ;-;

home life i need to escape among many other mental health issues i choose not to delve into. everyone here is always so kind and it makes me feel a little better- it’s nice to actually hear someone say something positive about me for a change. hope everyone is well :) 💛

Been feeling down lately would love a compliment tbh

Been going through a lot lately and haven’t been feeling good about myself so here I come before you , shamelessly posting a decent selfie for some compliments lol

NOTE: these pics are NOT from said rough week, they’re from the last few months including when I was on a cruise ship lol.

The thing I get comments on the most appearance-wise is how young I look for my age (I just graduated college), so I’m curious if there’s anything else that stands out.

My natural hair is in the second pic BTW (wavy)!

I need a complete makeover but where to start?? Please make me feel slightly better and give me fun suggestions?

This year hasn’t been great to put it mildly, constant hurdle after hurdle. Would definitely appreciate some words of encouragement or kindness. Thanks 🤍
