Yeah...kinda?

Damn, people are seriously responding to this. I thought it couldn't be more obvious.

So? What does it matter? What's the downside? Lemmy needs more content and engagement, here it is.

Btw you are engaging too. If it is bait the intention of your engagement does not matter, only that you engaged, that's how rage bait works for example.

This problem sounds so stupid and absurd, but that's what I'm dealing with...

It does not. You're feeling lonely, desexualized, maybe ostracized - that is tough, it sucks and it's not stupid. Those feelings are valid and you're suffering because of those feelings. When people say that their problems or their suffering isn't worth mentioning or it's minuscule I always counter that you can drown in an ocean or drown in a puddle, it doesn't matter, your suffering is real. And when you say you're feeling lonely - that is always serious, loneliness can be such a deep and heavy feeling that it's hard to overstate.

not very pretty

If that's you in your profile picture I would disagree, your eyes are stunningly beautiful. And if not I would still disagree without having ever seen you.

Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, people are attracted to different things and sometimes people think some things about you are attractive that you don't even know or think about.

I am sincerely convinced that this is the main reason why men have never approached me. I'm also quite socially awkward

We men are simple, but people in general are complicated. I may be that your young looks are a factor, it may even be a substantial factor, but it surely isn't the only.

Men are self conscious too, especially younger men. Approaching someone romantically can be super intimidating and even if you can work up the courage, you still have to make your interest clear, I can't count how often I was able to initiate contact but still failed miserably to convey my romantic intentions. And just because I don't act or look shy when interacting with you doesn't mean I am not terrified on the inside.

Your looks are only a part of who you are, looking very young might be a limiting factor for first contact in settings like bars or bigger social events but those are hook up situations and from what I'm reading from you I think it's not what you need or want necessarily. You want to feel desired, but you also want to feel yourself. You want to feel less lonely. Those are things a hook up won't fix, at least not lasting, trust me.

Like others mentioned, go out, meet new people, make friends, that will give you more self confidence and you will learn what is desirable about you, physically but also in your character. And once you've learned what is desirable and attractive or even admirable about you it will come easier, you learn how to play to.your strengths, what social setting suits you the best, how you make yourself approachable and most importantly - you'll learn to love yourself for who you are and you will be happy with yourself.

I promise you, you won't feel that way forever. You're not there yet, but one day you will. It might not be tomorrow or next week, but it will come sooner or later. Hang in there stranger <3

Yeah that looks correct, good job!

The wooden stock and the magazine assembly look more like a suomi KP/-31. On the ppd the wood either extends beyond the magazine shaft or it is a two-part wooden stock but it also extends beyond the magazine.

Only thing I can't quite make fit with the suomi is the air cooling holes in the barrel cover, I can't find any pictures of a suomi or ppd with only two holes in a row, they all seem to have more.

You're right about it not being a ppsh, as far as I know they had curved stick magazines not straight ones.

Selbst Trump dürfte es schwer fallen dann noch flächendecken genug Gehirnakrobatik zu verbreiten um einen Angriff auf europäische Truppen, die vorgeblich auf sein Verlangen hin dort stationiert wurden, zu begründen.

Pfft als ob das den kümmert wie glaubwürdig das rüberkommt, ich meine hast du die Venezuela Pressekonferenz am 02.01. gesehen? Da wurde nichtmal aus Höflichkeit gelogen, einfach direkt 'jo, geht ums Öl, was habt ihr denn geglaubt?' Der letzte fick der da gegeben wurde ist schon etwas her.

Ist auch keine neue Idee, ich war vor einigen Jahren mal dort und das Thema Angliederung an Rumänien habe ich mehr als einmal mitbekommen, aus ähnlichen Gründen. Ist natürlich nur anekdotisch aber ich fand das damals schon interessant.

Hey, thank you for reaching out, coincidentally today would've been my dad's 74th birthday. I'm having a tough time lately and your little message made me smile. It means a lot to me right now, so thank you again :) best wishes

Hab den Hang zu wütendem Wasser nie verstanden, als sanfte Schorle - fein.

Wenn man Grundschule gegen Oberstufe tauscht hat das Gespräch so ähnlich tatsächlich stattgefunden.

Ein guter Freund und ich haben neulich festgestellt, dass unsere Freundschaft mittlerweile volljährig ist.

You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know... morons.
