      the thing is that it's actually really easy to have cake and eat cake as well
      like it's not hard to make that happen
      it's just that it's a LOT of stuff at once -- having cake and eating it. it can be overwhelming to keep up, for some people.

      anyhow, you think you need something that you're terrible at?
      you need to figure out what appeals to you about something reportedly unpleasant
      what aspect of this experience appeals to you?
      isolate that aspect of it and then decide if that's worth it, given all the negative stuff on the other side. really it's just a problem you can figure out, and then decide what to do.

      and then do it.
      would be my advice

      aw, no, that's ok, don't be upset!!! i mean, brandy did get a lot of votes... i mean i think we all know what we're talking/not-talking about here... i'm pretty sure that were brandy to tell the world that she wanted to be on the AS hot 100 of queer women, she would rank in the top 10. i think we all know that to be true.

      you probably won't be attracted to anyone else for a while
      but you'll get there
      start small
      try just liking someone else
      wanting to hang out with someone else
      feeling like smiling every time you see someone else's picture
      just try getting to those things first
      nothing ever changes right away!
      i mean, there are days you wanna listen to 'blister in the sun' and feel like you're totally over jordan catalano, but that's actually just one of the smaller things, too, is that day.
      one foot in front of the other, grasshopper
      one person and then the next
      dates can be fun! you get to learn all these weird things about a stranger for a few hours
      it's better than teevee, probs

      we can't! we rent summer camps in the off-season to do camp. during the summer, those camps are running summer camps and aren't open for rentals

      what a fantastic idea!

      WELL, you can go to ob's website --> https://www.obtampons.com/en/questions-contact.

      that way your message goes directly to the customer care team at johnson & johnson. then if the brand team hears form their colleagues that people are saying that they love ob because of autostraddle, they will probably do elated backflips. just a tip. :-)

      ok, i am so surprised by all these feelings about groups! y'all never talked on groups so i didn't know you really used them at all! basically buddypress is fucking up our website and making everything weird and slow, and when we turned off groups, we stopped getting error messages every two minutes. but cee and tess are trying to fix it so hopefully groups will be back soon, cee like knows somebody on the inside at buddypress, because she's cool like that.

      well hopefully there is more than one person out there who doesn't like to cuddle, because that's who your girlfriend should probably start dating
