Was anybody else a RBN twin? The twin dynamic lends itself, I think, really well to the GC/SG even without a narc around, or maybe I've just been around way too many N's.

I felt extremely objectified as a twin, and was given implicit and explicit messages that I wasn't a full person my whole life. When I was grieving for my stepmom in the hospital during high school (she survived but that wasn't the prognosis) I had a school admin accuse me of lying because my twin wasn't as visibly effected.

It was just plain easier to treat us as a unit growing up, sure I get that. But the result was that no one ever knew me, just that I was the counterpoint to my twin. Or as the double-daughter-set my N

Hi RBN, I've been lurking and commenting for a while, but this is my first post. I'm so confused about my experience and I'd really like some help processing..

I am the least reliable witness for my life.

I can't remember much detail of my childhood, and I tried so hard to be alone that I actually was. I didn't bring serious problems to my parents, which was mostly just my mom after the divorce ~age 9. For the record I have ptsd from abuse from my brothers, cptsd from various traumas and neglects by my mom, and regular old depression and anxiety to boot. I've also had pretty extreme bouts of depersonalization for the past 7 years (I'm 25).

I did go to my friends for support, but because

I dont know much about this subreddit or sex positivity in general (though I am probably safely categorized as sex positive), but I couldn't find a thread on this topic and thought you all might be able to help.

I have a friend who says she is part of prominent sex positive spaces online (though she doesn't use reddit). I'm usually in feminist/female support areas of reddit, so when she used the word 'slut' in talking about a Game of Thrones character I was really surprised and my initial reaction was a cringe comment about slurs. She was defensive about it and said that my dislike of 'slut' harbors sex negativity, and that the sex positive community is trying to reclaim words like slut and

Sooo I was just with my first girl (I'm bi, long term with a guy) and she kept being super silly during sex and I have NO IDEA how to handle this! Like blowing raspberries into the kisses (and everywhere) or telling jokes during sex - like can I politely make things more serious or is this a style I just dont understand? Is there a gracious way for a sheltered girl to react here? I want to see her again, I'm just not that flippant with sex.

I hope this is a good place to post this, it feels like a really awkward situation. The women in my family tend to be overweight, including my mom and grandmother, but I'd been pretty thin until college. I gained 30lbs in college, but I didn't tell anyone in my family I was trying to lose weight recently until I showed up for a family dinner. I was really proud, so I told my mom what I'd been doing, and the 15lb loss is pretty noticeable, so she bragged to everyone about it (that was sweet of her).

However, my grandmother has always been incredibly judgmental. It's a miracle she never called me fat when I'd gained, but she trashes the looks of my overweight (identical twin) sister behind he

I need a South Korean native preferably to help me answer 5 questions about gestures in your culture. Please?
