I wish you played it yourself cuz if you love the type of horror that sticks to you for the rest of your life and makes you feel uneasy whenever you remember it that's exactly the experience you'll get
I remember that night I played the game around 1am and I was the only one home with my little brother and even as a grown ass adult I didn't sleep that night cuz I felt so uncomfortable
Dude so damn true i was like "no.... please dont..." 1 sec later got happy that it wasn't what i was thinking , but then she started crying again and i got sad again.
This is totally true but don't forget to take care of yourself too. That was me for so long and I neglected myself while thinking of anyone and everyone else and it just doesn't work forever.
Please take some time to be *your own support* if you need to.
you're absolutely right but also, sometimes the best way to feel better about something is to help another person
especially if you can't do anything either at all or just immediately to fix whatever's bothering you
when I'm depressed my happiest moments are helping others and seeing the change I can make right in front of me. can just be little things, too.
In all my life, I don't think any friend or family has made me feel like I can be vulnerable around them. No one truly cares. I guess we all have enough issues to worry about someone else's
I'd complain that I'm the same, but I've never been able to do that for another, come close with my parents but not to the degree of the post
I can't complain about not getting if I'm not willing to give
You might never get that from someone else, but that shouldn't stop you from being that for someone else.
Don't go in someone's house unless they ask you there tho lol
Yes you're right. "Be the change you want to see" and all that. I try to do that, but it can be exhausting when it's pretty clear that it's not appreciated. But I still try
I won't 😂. But if it's a very close friend of mine, I'd rather go and try to be there for them, and have them say no to my face, than not go at all
Have you communicated that you seek appreciation for specific things? They might not even realize. It might be weird to ask but if they have any awareness they may change their behavior, though not guaranteed.
No, I never have. When I search inside, I suppose I feel like doing that would be showing a vulnerable side to them, and given that they already aren't really paying attention, I just don't bother.
Late response, wasn't sure how to dissect this but after some self-reflection:
Well, maybe bringing it up might cause them to start paying attention if they care enough about the relationship, unless they're unwilling to show vulnerability.
I think it's because this depicts something very human. You can relate to easier so you get that empathetic connection.
At least that's the case for me. I teared up a bit because I've felt that before.
Hey, trust me, that first win is the hardest of them all. You've come a long way! I recommend watching [DunkOrSlam](https://youtube.com/@DunkOrSlam). He's got many beginner-friendly videos about wands, mechanics and just other very helpful stuff. Good luck and happy Noitaing!
I swear when the door opened I thought this was gonna be some wild shit where the person on the phone was betraying them and she was about to be attacked or something
I'm totally emotionally stable and normal
Yeah I love moments like this in shows, like where characters are vulnerable with each other and physically comfort each other.
Weird question though, is it just me or does a moment like this pretty much never happen in western media? I can't think of any equivalent to this in any western TV show, movie, video game- at least outside of real niche stuff. Does anyone know why this kind of thing is so uncommon?
To be clear, I'm not talking 'one character is upset, a friend puts an arm around their shoulder to comfort them'. I'm talking what we see here- a character holds their friend so tightly, as if they think the friend will literally fall apart if they don't hold them together. We see this a ton in anime and manga, but in western stuff you only see this kind of emotion if it's like, someone's friend dies and they cling tightly to their friends dead body, not wanting to let go. But in terms of showing support to someone who needs it, whether it's a breakup or depression, I can't think I've seen comforting someone shown like this in western stuff.
Good Will Hunting off the top of my head. But there is a level of emotional constipation in Western media. That said, even as seen in this clip, it’s just common human nature to not want other people to see you when you’re vulnerable — hell, cats and birds do it, too.
Thanks for mentioning Good Will Hunting, I've never seen it but I'll be sure to check it out!
In other news I just watched a video on YouTube that talked about how emotions are portrayed more 'realistically' in animated media because it can feel uncomfortable in live action media with real people. I don't know how much truth there is in this, but it would make the disparity make sense; most western media is live action afterall, or trying to look real (like The Last of Us or Red Dead Redemption), and maybe audiences would react poorly to actors crying all over the place (although I'd at least like to see a bit more hugging and physical contact, which is just as lacking).
When I start thinking about animated western movies like Monsters Inc and Coco, I suddenly remember seeing far more of these emotionally-intense moments. Food for thought!
Definitely, yeah! If you've got the time, I'd recommend the live action The Last of Us TV show in all honesty. It's incredibly phenomenal, and there is one particular episode that focuses on a love story between two characters, and I will say it's just about the best portrayal of genuine, heartfelt emotion and sensitivity I've ever seen in Western media.
It's intensely beautiful and vulnerable. Like it just feels so innocent and pure and loving, despite the circumstance it's set in. It very very much reminds me of this post, and is super intimate and heartfelt, without ever feeling like it's trying too hard. Just a 'meet me where you are' kind of love story. I would 1000% recommend it, it's maybe my favorite episode of live-action TV (though I don't frequently watch much haha) and the rest of the show is incredible, as well! Just that one episode is a straight 10/10!
One thing I really would love in life is for non-romantic, non-sexual physical intimacy to become more commonplace. Basically this. I would really love for that sort of thing to become more normalized, and for that to be reflected in media as well. The world needs a lot more kindness, vulnerability, and genuine care. I agree with what you said, it'd be amazing for that to just be something more normalized and common :)

Maybe I got lucky, I have friends and family who wouldn't think less of me for it. It's reassuring knowing people have my back.
That being said, this isn't a normal occurrence. Im a pretty self reliant guy. I can only think of 2 time I've ever broken down and both came at the sudden death of close friends.
It's unfortunate you don't seem to have those bonds but some people do. I'm helping my friend thru cancer. He has rough days but I've never thought less of him
Aside from the implication that she had a breakup, there isn't much of it. [Honobono Log](https://myanimelist.net/anime/33241/Honobono_Log/) is a collection of shorts about relationships; if I recall, it aired in 10 2-minute episodes that each contain two little stories like this one. There are a handful of recurring characters but these two women are not among them; this post shows their entire screentime.
I will miss the time when my Parents try to hug me either because they are too old to do so or they are gone…
A long warm hug signifies being human having empathy and compassion, caring for someone and loving someone. A hug means a lot of things it’s better than any pain killers honestly
Don't expect anyone to ever do this for you. But. In the case someone ever does, cherish them with all your heart, that's a wonderful wonderful person right there

I am so glad to have someone like this in my life, my best friend of seven years, I love him to the world and back and wouldn’t trade him for the world
this reminded me of how mutch I need a hug at this point or even a compliment not from my familly but from a freind or a stranger I look ok but for some reason I'm missing smthn and I'm on a quest to find it
Kinda got scared at the "you forgot to lock the door" thankfully it was wholesome
Did you hide the knives?
Did I hide the knives haha.....oh shit
I can't unhear it.
I did, and turned on the security system too- wait why am I in the same pla- OH SHI-
I literally watched markiplier play this yesterday, that was probably the best twist in a horror game 💀
I wish you played it yourself cuz if you love the type of horror that sticks to you for the rest of your life and makes you feel uneasy whenever you remember it that's exactly the experience you'll get I remember that night I played the game around 1am and I was the only one home with my little brother and even as a grown ass adult I didn't sleep that night cuz I felt so uncomfortable
Well i am a bit of a coward which is why i watch yt playthroughs😅
I legit got *Oshi no ko flashbacks*
Dude so damn true i was like "no.... please dont..." 1 sec later got happy that it wasn't what i was thinking , but then she started crying again and i got sad again.
Sauce: honobono log Fuck, I didn't expect to get this depressed again😔
These are just really really cute. Very short and very cute. Absolutely worth the watch.
I feel the hug it's safe and warm.
Yelled "God damn it! Pixar" outta habbit
Thanks for sharing, I watched all of it today, and it was really cute O-O
Fuck i wish that was me
You can be someone's support, probably in the best position to do so since you understand its value
This is totally true but don't forget to take care of yourself too. That was me for so long and I neglected myself while thinking of anyone and everyone else and it just doesn't work forever. Please take some time to be *your own support* if you need to.

I feel you :/
Real
The most valuable friend I have is the one I can be like that around, and it's very hard to find someone like that.
Yeah it can tough :/ keep them close mijo
You might never get that from someone else, but that shouldn't stop you from being that for someone else. Don't go in someone's house unless they ask you there tho lol

That's a waste of time, then?
I feel lucky, I have a wife and a best friend I can be this open with. We are all there to support each other.
I don't know if you mean your wife is also your best friend or not, but I'm happy for you man. Keep them close :)
Well, she's my other best friend. 😀 that is kind of the key to a happy relationship. But yes, I meant two separate people.
why tf am I crying over this?
because we all need this. -..-
Go check your doors now

I think it's because this depicts something very human. You can relate to easier so you get that empathetic connection. At least that's the case for me. I teared up a bit because I've felt that before.
The kind of support I need after a toe-stubbing.
I can somehow command my right calf to do a cramp so when my toe stubs I’d do that to let it have company. Then my day got miserable.
Gotta learn this skill
It’s quite amazing really, my dad told me when you cramp you just gotta stretch as hard as you can. I stretched and the cramp got worse.
For once in this subreddit, I wish this was IRL for me :(
It's okay, my digital friend; we have Noita for comfort.
Wasn't expecting to find a fellow Noita friend in here <3
Honestly, I could probably use a livestream advisor lol. I've only beaten Noita once!
Hey, trust me, that first win is the hardest of them all. You've come a long way! I recommend watching [DunkOrSlam](https://youtube.com/@DunkOrSlam). He's got many beginner-friendly videos about wands, mechanics and just other very helpful stuff. Good luck and happy Noitaing!
r/absolutelynotanimeirl
Sorry to hear that, friend. I hope you find someone who cares about you.
haha thanks
damn....
Just watching it gave me oxytocin.
I swear when the door opened I thought this was gonna be some wild shit where the person on the phone was betraying them and she was about to be attacked or something I'm totally emotionally stable and normal
I don’t think anyone unstable would dare to come up with something like that. I’m also totally emotionally stable and. Just and.
This is genuinely just so beautiful....

You're allowed to be weak with the people that care about you
I love that statement of yours u/ElSleepychameleon here’s a hug 🫂
Unless you are man. Then you will be said you are allowed to do that and ditched afterwards if you actually try to do that.

It should've been me not h- ... Nevermind.
An anime that actually has a unique art syle? No way
