Confessions thread

[RestlessDreamer]

Good point, Ariosto. We need to keep this ship on course.

Confession for the day: I find it really hard to be happy before night time. Something about daylight generally drags me down and I'm not a fan of crowds or other people (in general, I mean). But when it's dark out, no one is around and everything is peaceful. I much prefer it.

 

[RedSavage]

Eh. Unless you have important errands to run, I always feel that days off were made for wasting however you like. Whether that be social stuff or dicking around.

What do you do for a living, Red? Restaurant?

Sleeping is generally how I waste my days off. Haha. I'm in bed on my phone. And I drive a truck for a living. Dairy tankers. 50,000 pounds of raw milk, and I go from Stephenville to Houston round trip daily.

Hmmmm, I won't dictaminate what you should do, but maybe it's really best if you got some more sleep before getting back.

Yeah I've got quite the sleep deficit. Think I'll take a nap.


And OT. When I was homeless I stole food from Walmart. I was always missing the free dinner because I was working, but I had to wait 3 weeks until I got a pay check cause Id just starting there. Hunger is a very harsh feeling. One Im familiar with.

When I was on holiday in England one time I had a twenty minute conversation with a so-called celebrity. I had no idea who they were and I still don't know who they were but apparently people were impressed I treated someone of their status like a normal person, to me they were a normal person and had good taste in music. I only figured out they had that status when after a while of talking people were running up asking for their autograph.

 

[Ariosto]

I confess that I tend to calm my anxiety through eating; however, something unusual has happened lately in that eating a lot, or eating sweet things, does not satsify or please me, and all it does is bring even more stress. At the same time, I'm so accustomed to eating things that I end up resorting to it all the same. It's a bit of a vicious cycle, but as I've implied, I think I am breaking from it, thanks to exercising and possibly a change of mentality.

 

[RestlessDreamer]

Better than needing to alleviate anxiety through drinking. I know that all too well... :/

Bit somber/fun confession: I could probably drink any of you under the table. Regardless of body weight, I'm pretty certain of it. Although bear in mind I'm a super flirty (read: not horny, flirty) drunk. So I'll be making constant verbal advances and flirtations.

:c
What can I say? I hope it isn't life-damagingly heavy, and that you might leave it behind fully someday. I don't know why, but people who drink always have my sympathy.

Sometimes I feel really weird interacting over these forums. Being represented by a species I don't belong to, behind a name that is not mine and using a language that is not my mother one... it feels almost like leading a double life.

 

[Kinharia]

I feel as an Irishman this is a big confession. I can not stand Guinness. The taste of that vile English pisswater is enough to make me sick.

Why does everything the Irish don't like have to be made English in some way?

It's pretty heavy, but I'm not falling over drunk. I think the issue is my resistance has grown much higher so I don't get affected by it much (hence leading to heavier drinking). But yeah, I need to gradually reduce my intake for certain. Being on leave from work for months due to a broken toe and then having my mother die during that has caused me to be rather careless. That's the biggest issue - the idleness combined with existential ennui.

But drawing has helped hold my focus and been good for keeping me away from the stuff a bit more than usual. Just need to keep active, that's all.

 

[Kinharia]

To be honest Fallowfox the only I call "English" to describe vile is Guinness mainly down to it being viewed as an Irish drink, regardless of the fact that an English company owns it. I don't call anything else as "Vile English xxx"

 

[Volkodav]

Asexuality is lack of sexual attraction
while i can look at someone and say "wow they're really hot, i want to fuck them", an asexual is more like "that is nice to look at"

 

[Deleted member 93706]

Y'all are a bit off base with asexuality. Best I had it described to me, by an asexual friend of mine, is that sex for asexuals is like a different flavor of ice cream. Sure, they can enjoy it. It's ice cream after all. But it's certainly not their FAVORITE flavor in the run of things, but if it's with someone they like they really don't mind. Their favorite flavor of ice cream is more emotional and platonic interactions, and love is certainly included in that mix.

Well, by that definition, I am asexual. That would certainly explain a lot...

For me, the emotional interactions bear far more weight than the sexual interactions...probably because I'm an empath, and that I perceive emotion as beauty. All of that ties in to my demisexuality.
That said, I cannot stand to see a pair of humans going at it. All I get is shame and a nauseous feeling in my gut. However, when I see a pair of anthros in the same situation, I perceive everything but shame (and nausea).


Confession:
I confess that my former confession was timed as to minimize viewers.

 

[Fallowfox]

Is demisexuality a real psychological phenomenon, or is it another special snowflake term?

 

[Volkodav]

Special snowflake term

 

[Deleted member 93706]

I don't really know actually...if I am asexual, then demisexual may be a redundant term. Hell, demisexuals may all be asexuals and just not know it.

I'm not sure if demisexual fits me anyways...there have been several individuals (some male, and some female) over the years with whom I felt an immediate emotional bond (upon meeting them).

 

[Volkodav]

Demisexuality was a term made up by someone as a joke on a Mary sue role play board
the basic definition is "i dont feel sexual attraction until i know that person well and form an emotional bond "
Basically, what the majority of people who dont fuck around feel

Okay, well then it sounds snowflaky as fuck. Asexuality it is then. Q_Q

Welcome aboard!

 

[Deleted member 93706]

Welcome aboard!

Apparently, "asexual" is a far broader term than I ever realized. So yeah.

 

[Kleric]

Hmm, I kind of only have interest in personality as well, and people mean just about nothing to me until I know them... yet I considered myself Pansexual, or Bisexual in-case no one knew that more specific term. Maybe it's a bit different for me, because I CAN be attracted to people I do not know, however I would never ever let myself go off and pursue someone for those reasons because personal bonds mean so much more to me.

 

[Deleted member 93706]

I should clarify. Asexual towards humans. Still bisexual towards anthros.

I'm so weird.

 

[Renarde]

I'm hyper sexual but only in the context of interacting with the person I monogamously bond to. Which has always sort of perplexed me. My sex drive is high and I'd like to be able to do casual, I envy people who can.

 

[UrsusArtist]

For me there is a separation between love and lust. My partners and I are on the same page, don't get jealous of each other when we have encounters with others, and know that our love for one another supplants any extracurricular activities we may have.

I do understand that not everyone can have this mindset...not getting jealous is a difficult thing.

I confess to drinking excessive amounts of coffee everyday. Usually within the first hour of waking I will have consumed at least 15 tsp's of instant coffee

I'm so dependent on caffeine that if my morning ritual isn't carried out, my brain will function at only 50% for the entire day.

I found that I had to pee loads when I drank coffee every morning.
