Whole foods and exercise. Though you should probably talk to a actual nutritionist instead of the internet.

I don't have the money, unfortunately.

Use a calorie counter. I've used myfitnesspal. You input your height and weight and it tells you how many calories a day to eat in order to gain/lose weight

On the plus side, the coloring isn't that bad.

Although I noticed a lot of artists use their coloring skills to distract from awful anatomy. Which is why I focused on anatomy first myself, before learning to color.

It's not awful, but it's generic, boring and the light/shadows are pretty off in some places.(talking colouring)

If you both love eachother, then you will be happy and nervousness will fade. You have the advantage of having known eachother for years before. Better chances of things working out well.

Apparently the reason none of my relationships stuck so far is because we only really act like close friends, not like significant others. I wasn't having sex with anyone when they broke up with me. I don't know how to act like "more than a friend" with someone but not be sexual.

The reason I haven't had sex is because either I was told at the beginning that we weren't going to have it, because they didn't want to have sex with anyone, which I was fine with, and the people who didn't tell me that weren't interested in negotiating when was the right time and under what conditions. They refused to wear condoms, refused to wait until I was comfortable. And I was within my rights to say no, as well as being not the only person who would do so.

I had to go to the united states for a few weeks because of work.

And holy shit, I'm sorry Americans, but never have I been more happy to live in a country that isn't filled with religious nut-balls.

I mean, some of the people I met there, would be locked up and considered insane where I come from. But in a America, not only do they roam freely, if they forces their beliefs on you, then you are the one told to be open-minded and respectful - not the one forcing their beliefs down your throat.

I met a lot of people, who told me "God is speaking to me. I can hear him talk to me", say that sort of shit, where I'm from, and you would be locked up and diagnosed with schizophrenia.

Nope, not at all. I'm a virgin at 21. Mostly just circumstance and me not really feeling like trying to get laid.
(not asexual, not in the slightest, just lazy.)

Going to be a 26 year old virgin very shortly.

Okay nothing against you anon. But can i just take a moment here and say how sad i am everytime i see someone ask this in such a thread? Everytime i get so saddened by it. I mean i was until 21 a virgin too, until i thought i found the man for a longlasting relationship, where i can trust and love him. I was okay with beeing one until i lost it, because in all honesty i needed to get with myself in sync and went through some times of doubting myself. But i also knew i didn´t want to lose it like one classmate who just lost it on some switzer bimbo in a drunken state. I thought what i am worth to myself? Because it was my first time and i wanted to have it with someone who would thread this delicate matter as something special too.

Because now here i need to say the ultimate truth. There is a market for everything. It is not about finding a sexual partner who would want to sleep with you, but rather about a partner which you could trust and where you later don´t feel like you where just used for his needs.

It is nothing to be ashamed of to be still a virgin or to have already lost it. Like so much in your life this is a thing between yourself and YOURSELF. And yes sometimes you see in the mirror and think. Curse the world and that everyone finds someone. And than you listen to TMSI and think you rather never went over this line. There is no generell approbiate age to lose it. If others say: There is a to late, there is a to soon. Than tell them politly that this doesn´t matters to you, because you are you and not them.

Also the average japanese woman loses her virginy with 22. I hear of german teenagers who already lost it with 14. But than they just got the concept of the mechanics and the deep trust you feel with a partner to which you build up a emotional relationship is not there.

To the end you should be aware how you think your first time should be. Should it be rather with someone you have friendly feelings for (some want it like this) or you are maddly in love. Or just someone you trust.

I feel the same way. I remember hearing that the writer did a lot of research into Lincoln's actual life when he was doing the book, and the actor who played him was known as a period actor, so they know what they were doing there, even if the movie wasn't so good.

I don't know. I take it and TF2's backstory as lighthearted (though possibly some of it is Soldier making shit up) and not intended to be mean. If after I died people said I went around killing vampires with flamethrowers and saving my country, I'd take it as a compliment, I guess.

My mom was bitching about it because she said you shouldn't say anything about a real person, especially a president, unless he actually did it. And even though I disagree, I can see where she's coming from.

My sister is a huge Abraham Lincoln aficionado; she had her doubts about the book but the rich detail and attention to history won her over.

She absolutely hated the movie.

But my own opinion on alternative history stuff? It can be pretty interesting. It only rustles my jimmies if its done without much research or falls back on cliches of the 'genre' (Nazis doing anything supernatural comes to mind. Not bashing Hellboy or the like, mind you, but its been done to death. Give it a rest!)

>>12293
I remember hearing Adolf Hitler was interested in the supernatural, but I don't think he did anything with it.

Another thing that sort of fits in the alternate universe genre that I really liked was an anime OVA called Read or Die. Brittania still exists, Beethoven had a book with a doomsday device plan in it, and a bunch of steampunk influences. Apparently they're making an alternate-universe series that's more like Fahrenheit 451 and the cute bookish protagonist is all "dark" and has silver hair and...eh. No me gusta.

I've been here since danceflower IIRC. I want to say July or August of 2008, or some time around there.

I've been visiting the website not long after I got the game, so roughly around the time of the first Halloween update. Sure, not as long as some of you, but not exactly recent. Not that anybody would care, since I've never been very active and only posted one fic in workshop. Still, though, love this place. Even if I don't have much to say or contribute, you're not gonna get rid of me.

Have a cute spider.

I've been here since the Danceflower days. Want to say started lurking as Anon in December 2008 and started posting regularly around March 2009.

Yes, I still lurk around every once in a while.

:)

What's that? You want me to draw someone who isn't Sniper?
Well, if you say so.

I don't have a scanner or any skill, really BUT i did evolve my whirlipede yesterday!

Guys. Guys.

Blood-spattered doves.

I would happily design and create the announcements and invitations for you, but as I live in the UK I have no idea how this would work. Here's a sample of my work, if you're still interested I've included my email so we can talk there

You are the best people ever. Fo real. These are all great. Also, how does one go about moving threads? I'm pretty newfag.
