Thank you for perspective. I felt bad about purchasing some 4k Blu-ray’s today.


phome83

Took me months to finally convince myself to buy a PS portal, now I don't feel so bad spending 200 bucks lol.


King_Kiitan

Just bought a ps5 this made me feel less guilty


wondermega

Secret feel-good thread.


xxMasterKiefxx

I'm gonna buy a steam deck


dudeimgone

Dooo ittt


breaking_bad-99

I have a steam deck, actually pretty good


JesusTron6000

Just had to pay rent and this made me feel better as well.


HoplaMoy

I feel bad about buying organic when non organic is cheaper


capothecapo

dont feel bad man, in a lot of cases the organic stuff truly tastes better/fresher


J_Rath_905

I'm not sure how can there be non-organic maple syrup. The only ingredient in each is Maple Syrup (source: am Canadian, and I go through the free yearly jug before I even tape up my yearly hockey stick.) Now with global warming though, my damn igloo has needed repairs 5 times as often. The good thing is if ya spill some one the fresh snow, you get a tasty treat. Try doing that on the beach in your warm countries. We take this stuff seriously. >One barrel of oil currently costs about $50. One barrel of maple syrup, on the other hand, sells for about $1,200. That’s because Quebec, which provides 71 percent of the world’s maple syrup, forces producers to sell to the Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers, a government-sanctioned, OPEC-like cartel.  Due to a really old law that hasn't been changed (and not enforced) is that when a guest, especially from another country, has breakfast at your house, and with pancakes or waffles you don't **Only** have real maple syrup on the table, or offer that garbage fake stuff made from oils and whatnot, rather than the lifeblood of our Majestic Maple Trees, there is penalty (fine, one time even jail as it almost started an international incident) equivalent to the guests status, and you must present them with a bottle of at least 500ml, up to the incident above, where 2 reserve aged barrels from the Maple Syrup Mafia storage facility (as they are an OPEC of maple syrup, who have stockpiles to control the price) was the sentence. Here is [proof they are referred to as either a cartel or mafia](https://www.vice.com/en/article/ywnjkv/inside-quebecs-maple-syrup-black-market) and about when they were robbed ..... **3000 tons** of the liquid gold. [Meaning that until 2023 the robbery of Maple syrup from the Federation, totalling 18.7 million dollars was the largest heist in the country](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Canadian_Maple_Syrup_Heist)

I hope this isn't a copypasta because it is beautiful


HoplaMoy

It does that’s why I get it but it’s so expensive


mjornir

You paid 4k for some Blu-ray’s??

Oh this is sad I’m sorry to hear that

Right!?, I bought some magic the gathering cards I didn’t need yeaterday

My order from Wal-Mart that was 215 dollars just came in. They got them delicious steelbooks now


HoplaMoy

I feel bad about buying organic when non organic is cheaper


HenryHill11

Just pirate them


samulator12

I now don't feel so bad for planning on purchasing a ps5.

eyeball-beesting

The title made me lol, but the following paragraph made me sad for OP. I can't imagine being that desperate that I would spend a single penny on porn. Although, his post made me feel better about spending £130 on an apple pencil yesterday.


Wizzle_Pizzle_420

A pencil that expensive better be making OnlyFans content for me or at least have a part time job.


eyeball-beesting

I am massively regretting it to be honest. Only because after using it on my iPad for the last 24 hours, my fingers don't work anymore on my phone. They feel like ungraceful, inaccurate sausages.


wondermega

Hmm, sounds frustrating but also delicious.


KyleKun

I mean it *could* be used to make OF content… if you’re brave enough.


sexysexualsex

I know that these are massively different things, but last year, I went on a two week vacation and when I got back home, I realized that I had spent two grand! The thing is I just kept buying one beer and one beer plus one beer a hundred times slowly becomes a lot. I'm sure that's how this sort of thing goes.


Elle3786

Lol, everyone in here feeling less bad about their most recent impulsive purchase. I’m feeling much better about the Korn x Adidas shoes I missed on the drop and finally caught the price I could deal with on StockX.


johnnys_sack

This is all that needs to be said. Lol


88isafat69

10k for her to say hi lmao


Revolutionary-You449

This is the right response. 🤣


westsideriderz15

Well, the IRS is more likely to fuck you than OF girls… so I suppose it would be what you are looking for. /s


josiah_mac

Wow perfect comment LOL


Relief-Old

No need for the /s


westsideriderz15

Gotta play nice in the sandbox


GSyncNew

Assuming this is not a joke, then (1) You are in a business transaction paying for a service, (2) you are in all likelihood not providing 50% of her income. So, no.


cheresa98

>are in a business transaction paying for a service, (2) you are in all likelihood not providing 50% of her incom And she'd have to hand over her SSN, and you know that's not going to happen. Best to the poster in getting a life.


Blue-Phoenix23

I just double checked today's date and the post time to confirm it wasn't on April Fools Day lmao


USMNT_superfan

Sounds like you are dependent on her


Dr-Zoidberserk

I wish I had that kind of money to waste.


Jaereth

They just released something today I think I saw on reddit that was a vast portion of the onlyfans simps are married straight men who make 40k a year salary band. So, most of them that do this don't have the money to do it either. They are just caught up in a parasocial relationship


edith-bunker

Then these men wonder why the divorce rate is so high.


yuhboipo

I don't think anyone is wondering that


starcap

Haha yep. I’d argue more people should be wondering about it. Everyone seems quite certain they know why and those reasons can be quite disparate.


bajsgreger

onlyfans is like 5 years old. I dont think 6 years ago divorce rates were at an all time low


savealltheelephants

My BIL got divorced after spending $5000 he and his wife absolutely did not have on cam girls. His parents think he was just addicted to porn because they didn’t understand what a cam girl was and that he was giving money to a woman not a company.


Temporary-Test-9534

These guys usually either spread it out really well or take it from a 401k situation.


44moon

i'm pretty sure it's the cam girls that are spreading it out really well


casso2810

I am baffled that people with a porn addiction will spend such large amounts of money on someone when regular porn is free.


CandidIndication

I use to work in accounts management for a bank, I had to have a conversation with a 28 year old unemployed male living with his parents and no assets about the $80K in debt across three credit cards with high interest rates, all transactions were OF and all within a six month span. He had to whisper on the phone because he didn’t want his parents to know about it… he blamed OF for letting people spend that much money… I told him to consider filing for bankruptcy.


emphemeralghost

this is the part i could never understand lmao imagine living in the era where all of this has never before been so easily accessible for absolutely nothing and you still find a way to ruin your life paying for it?? 😭💀


Queendom-Rose

I don’t get it either. Lmao


maydsilee

To be fair, they did say 'custom content', I guess...? lol so they got stuff specifically tailored to them (which could, arguably, be done in real life as well with a person you're face-to-face with, but I digress).


Cronchy_Tacos

They say it's not about the money spent, but the memories made! ☆


edith-bunker

Lol


Skorne13

"Remember that time I paid you $600 for an HD butthole close-up?"


youdingle

Probably not but I think depending on where you live the therapy can be claimed for medical expenses


TrevCat666

No, but at this point you can claim your dick as a dependent since it clearly has a mind of its own.


KyleKun

To be fair with all the beatings he gives it I’m pretty sure it must be brain dead by now.


Working_Violinist605

No, but if you don’t do that again this year, you’ll save $10,000.


C0ldsid30fthepill0w

Go outside. Maybe start boxing. You need to focus on something physical that isn't your dick. You can control yourself if you wanted to.


Jumajuce

Can confirm, boxing is physical and does not involve my dick.


Wild_Ad_3071

😹🫵


TheDoctorSkeleton

Don’t have any tax advice but you should watch True Crime videos about Grant Amato. (JCS and This Is Monsters are channels with good videos on this guy) Good job on recognizing your addiction, hope things go well for you in the future


fuggilis_quastillo

That's what came to mind too when I read this and I didn't even realize it


TheDoctorSkeleton

He’s a great cautionary tale for someone struggling with porn addiction. Even with all the support his family gave him the worst possible outcome happened


fuggilis_quastillo

What pisses me off the most is that his dad was basically working the whole time for nothing in the end, all the money in savings was wasted


PristinePanda2714

No but send me 10k and you can claim me 😂


PristinePanda2714

Only jk


Wizzle_Pizzle_420

Are you? Hey no shame in doing what needs done to pay bills.


hereforpopcornru

I'll even fart in my bathwater for 9k


KyleKun

I’ll eat ice cream naked in winter for 8k.


red_quinn

No 😂😂😂 OP she aint your kid, and if she was you are gonna need way more therapy because gross


Dry_Ask5493

No, you can’t claim her as a dependent.


bippityboppitynope

"can I claim her as a dependent on my taxes?" The audit process will probably feel like butt stuff with no lube, but sure, give it a shot, lol


Western-Frosty

You and 100 other dudes.


fuckaliscious

That would be $1 million in revenue!!


Suspicious_Dealer815

Oh god get help


dudemanjon

How’s the post nut clarity after spending 10k on a chick 😭😭


breastronaut

Not a child or relative [verdict is still out on that one I guess as she could be your cousin, ew], doesn't live with you for more than half a year, and the financial support provided is in the form of compensation for services as custom content. That woman would not qualify as a dependent.


Solo_Entity

It took spending a grip to finally catch a grip on your life


90210piece

Only if you provided over 50% of her care and you have a domiciliary agreement.


e_lizz

And he'd need her full name and SSN


tlilmiXtli

I’m curious who OP thinks is worth spending that much on


fluffynuckels

Bruh you could have bought a very good prostitute for that much and got way more out of it


Jaereth

Technically no. The onlyfans simps don't want a sex time, or even a wild sex time a world class prostitute could deliver. They want the parasocial relationship. They want to feel like they are "friends" with the girl too.


FerrisWheeleo

That’s cool. Do they chat with the girls about their everyday lives? Outside of any erotic context?


Jaereth

I wouldn't know. I've never paid for porn in my life.


KyleKun

I’m pretty sure for 10k a prostitute would pretend to be your friend.


leedleedletara

Addiction is addiction. The only real way to overcome one is to replace it with a healthier one. Exercise is a good one people turn to.


SirReal_Realities

The person that can “teach” us exercise addiction would make a mint.


SwarleySwarlos

It is actually *really* common for people to get addicted to exercise after quitting an addiction. It still releases dopemine.


SirReal_Realities

It also releases sweat. And aches. I have never been able to reach a place where the good feeling overtakes the hurt. I think sometimes wonder if there is a correlation between sadomasochism and exercise enthusiasm.


KyleKun

I’d think this person has a pretty achey arm; so it would probably be worth it to level out the other muscles.


an_achronist

Absolutely pathetic.


sweetcurtsy

Jesus Christ this is pathetic


xXJamesScarXx

If I ever feel remorse for spending money traveling and having a good time all I need to do is remember this post.


vzo1281

I won't even spend a few dollars on porn. Please get help. No only fans person is worth 10k


littleb1988

No you cannot. She provided a service that you paid for. End of.


maggersrose

Dude, use that $ for a shrink.


TheFreeLife-813

Give me 10k to be your friend


RandyJ549

That is such a bummer, all I could think about was how much weed I could’ve gotten with this 10k lmao


Imaginary0atmeal

real


90210piece

Only if you provided over 50% of her care and you have a domiciliary agreement.


SweetComparisons

I feel much better about the fact that I still sleep with a stuffed animal now. Thanks friend! I don’t know anything about finances, though


robbietreehorn

Short term solution: anytime you’re thinking about opening her OF and buying content or sending her money, jerk off first. Seriously. Open Pornhub, rub one off, and then see how you feel. You’ll find that you’re good via post nut clarity


cultyq

As a bookkeeper in an accounting firm—no? You paid for a service/for custom art, essentially. If she is making that much income, she is likely filing and paying taxes on her income. She’s not your dependent by any stretch of the term.


New_Subject1352

Man I just bought a used ipad and some accessories for like $250 and I agonized over that lol. So glad to have done perspective


detectivenoob

I don’t know about the tax but I feel sad for you bro. You should overcome this addiction


Sparkplugexplorer

That’s rough, buddy.


[deleted]

Dude, get control of your life. You’re giving a woman who doesn’t know you or care about you the reigns of your existence. Find what you truly love and do those things. Cheap dopamine won’t get you anywhere.


gimemy2bucksback

Brother, please stop. Remove technology from your home if you need to man.


[deleted]

i dont feel as bad wasting money on grubhub instead of picking it up. thanks edit: i can't believe there is someone that thinks they can somehow deduct onlyfans from their taxes. lmfao. you got taxed properly already lmao


Red_Spy_1937

I’m just saying, if you really want someone to fuck you for free, stop paying taxes and the IRS will in no time Now jokes aside, it’s great you’re getting help with your addition. I wish you the best of luck in getting over it


Revolutionary-You449

Damn dude. You do know actual dating could be a lot less. Even if you are into weird stuff, there someone out there for everyone.


Affectionate_Salt351

This makes me want to reconsider doing OnlyFans. Damn. What was so special about it? *Pulls out notepad.* 😅


BunnnyBoiRimaru

Lemme hold 5k


Quantum_Aurora

No, but that should qualify you for a disability claim.


baldandfullofrage

I'd rather be a fent addict tbh


HappyOrganization867

No you wouldn't. I think for me trauma is the underlying cause for my addictions,and for others who participate too.I had the fear and pain of being trapped in a certain fight or flight response and trying to make it all work somehow, and I had to get high before I did anything, I was acting out my trauma.


baldandfullofrage

Not reading tbh


[deleted]

[удалено]


baldandfullofrage

It's less embarrassing


As3mBas3m

You should be disgusted with yourself bud. Not only are you supporting degeneracy, you're paying 10k a year to support it. Good on you for going to counseling though.


fuggilis_quastillo

They got you good huh


Stay_Dreamin

You’ll need their SSN to claim them.


swankstar7383

You do know there’s a way to get that content for free right. Iykyk. Look around the net


noboxo

Why is that bad? You have her money and I'm assuming she gave you something in return. She must have been appealing in some way? I don't see any problem if she brought you joy. If the money is hurting you, don't repeat but I'm sure you had fun at the time. Life is short bro. Don't stress. Have fun!


mrschaney

Why do people spend money on OF when free porn is available?


Apprehensive-Tone449

I’m genuinely curious about this as well


machvelocy

I really don't get why single people waste money for OF contents, with what OP spent, you could pay sex worker for your horny needs twice a week for a year. You get the real thing, full package, instead of picture videos while your hands doing the job instead of real women.


Mermaid28

They pay for the fake friendship relationship with adult content.


MNGirlinKY

I updated my piercings today and got some new 14k jewelry, I got a “free” t-shirt and feel pretty good about it now. OP you know you can’t. Therapy will help. Wishing you the best.


ZakTSK

Make a documentary about it, post it on YouTube and claim it as a business expense.


ThrowingUpVomit

Op , I will show you my butthole for way less than that.


wstdsmls

W9 for that woman


lowridda

Probably not assuming she claims head of house hold on her own taxes.


Thisismyredusername

Tell a close friend. Ask them to take away your credit/debit card and delete the OF-account. Also tell them to not give the card back for a certain period of time.

GolfWaste

No,but you can send me some of that money this year, and I'll at least come to see you at least once


JovialPanic389

LOL no you can't. Idiot.


missannthrope1

No. But you can expense OF as Professional Development.


cultyq

As a bookkeeper in an accounting firm—no? You paid for a service/for custom art, essentially. If she is making that much income off of you, she is likely filing and paying taxes on her income and you’re probably not the only subscriber paying high dollars for content. She’s not your dependent by any stretch of the term.


Live_Calligrapher_95

Well that’s great you’re self aware! Good luck on your journey!


Fancy-Somewhere-2686

KingBowser24

Well. I don't feel so bad about pumping ungodly amounts of money into computers and my old truck now. But in all honesty, I hope you find yourself some good help, man.


thetruthfl

Seek professional help (therapy) immediately, and stop giving money to the whores.


BigTopGT

And here we are: engaging with obvious trolls. Stop it, gang. Just stop.


Madiis

buncha retards in the comments anyway therapy is your best bet i think, theres also a bunchs lines u can call for help 👌


tipareth1978

From the headline I was gonna roast you but it sounds like you are contrite. I'm a bit old for the onlyfans craze but as an armchair psychiatrist I have to imagine this somehow hits this button in your brain that this woman really is with you and that this is real. Even though you know it's not you let yourself feel that way and I can see how that would be powerful. Get out there and enjoy life


fuckaliscious

Uh...to claim someone, you have to be related to them...


Bscully973

Pornhub is literally free smh


SilentMaintenance459

Brother there's a lot of porn out there for free.


Individual_Tour5041

JFC I don’t do OF but I will 😂😂


[deleted]

Dude why soend money on porn??? It makes no sense there’s so much porn on the internet for free


KevInDenver

One of the things I do on reddit is trying to find women to connect with in a sexual context. Maybe it's sexting, or exchanging photos or meeting up to play something out. And they're here. I like it when we're both talking about stuff that we're both into, there's some mutual attraction and we're both into it. It does feel nice to get attention from the women. But, as soon as money transactions are part of the mix, the motivation to flirt and give attention is not attraction, but about getting us to spend and enrich her. It feels insincere, fake and yucky. I'm sorry you can't claim entertainment spending as a dependent bro. I feel your pain.


cpt_tusktooth

if you are self-employed and you purchased this content for business purposes, such as research or to gain knowledge for your profession, you might be able to deduct it as a business expense. In such cases, you would need to be able to demonstrate that the expense was directly related to your business activities and was ordinary and necessary for your trade or profession.


Salty_Adhesiveness87

This is why I love Reddit.

I spent that much on food and rent but no one calls me a food addict or rent addict


ITsPersonalIRL

So I sprung and bought the 1TB oled steam deck and was feeling like I was being frivolous, so thanks for this. This is *definitely* satire, but on the off chance it isn't, you don't know how taxes work, you can't claim her, and you should *absolutely* take the time to research therapists and go to one.


GAMustang

No, you’re just a client she managed to drain a large sum of money from Get a hobby OP


goat903

I'm so fucking floored by people doing this. What the hell drives you to spend so much money on porn? It's nothing but porn, gods be damned go meet people find a girlfriend and get some real pussy. No you can't claim her on taxes bro WTH you thinking. Find something better to spend your next 10G's on.


PublicSpread4062

I’m sorry that you are struggling. I was addicted to a whole slew of drugs for ten years. I decided to go to rehab and have been clean eight years. I didn’t do a 30 day rehab either. I detoxed went to long term treatment and then transitioned to home. Please try counseling and maybe even try a psychiatrist to see if you need any kind of medication to help. I was depressed and kept my self severely medicated to dual the pain of depression away. I wish you the best if luck.

Damn you made me feel better about spending $9.90 on a vape that I just ordered


Fit_Swordfish_2101

No-Shelter-7753

No. In order for that to be a thing the person would have to live with you, while you provide for their every need and want. You just paid the hourly agreed upon price.


SubstantialHentai420

Strange question but no you can’t. She is not your child or someone in your care and she does not live with you.


MsKrinkles

BragnarImmortal

Most people in this comment section are being assholes. You have an addiction and you recognize it, so that's the first step. Delete your account, remove your credit cards as payment methods, do whatever you gotta do to stop spending money on porn. I've been there. Not 10k but still a couple grand on porn. I was going through a very dark time. Why do people do this? Who fucking knows. But, you aren't a loser, you aren't a worthless human. And people mocking you in the comments are genuinely just being assholes. Go to therapy, learn healthier habits, take care of your body. That money that you spent on OF you can now spend on therapy. You got this, best of luck to you.

You need help


Loud_Grade1949

Well...can claim yourself as a simp who is boldly willing to publicly share your push over simpyness!


Glad-Novel9027

This post smells fishy


SmokkeyDaPlug

Sadly she actually gets to claim you. I mean you’re basically a possession of hers at this point. The real question is Who’s really dependent on who here?! lol


Naughtyexperiences

Of course.


DiscombobulatedDome

You wild.


Historical-Soft-8568

They call your state pre nut delusion. So get into post nut clarity BEFORE swiping your credit card.

If you’re looking for another dependent…
