2024.05.15 11:56 MikaeleHD Ao Ashi Chapter 369 Spoiler Summary
We go back to Barcelona exiting the pitch once again. If this performance continues, Ascari hopes that Barca's upper management aren't watching. Yuri imagines the ground ahead of himself as white tiles, spotted with darkness just ahead. Yuri aims to not allow the darkness to cover it all. Falco wonders if Demian is staying on the bench, afterall just the three of them the game is only two-thirds perfect, without Demian on Falco can't fulfill his role.* Yuri passes by Hana just like in the previous chapter.
Five years ago in Barcelona. Yuri is greeted by two of his teammates in their taxi to training, but Yuri is strangely nervous. Yuri's teammate "Leonard" tells him to be enthusiastic and his other teammate "Mauro" reasons with Yuri, reminding him they were brought to Barcelona for their talents, he should not be nervous.* Yuri was only invited to Barca six months ago from his club Sabadell, and for the past six months he's been struggling to keep up. He's scared that he's already done for, that his time with football will be over.
At the training grounds now, Yuri's every play is being judged by his coaches. Ascari runs into a pocket of space, gesturing for a pass from Yuri, but Yuri continues his run by himself. He's never talked to Ascari, he's only talked to the teammates he shares his ride with. Yuri has no friends in the academy, constantly fearing the day he is let go of. Yuri is a reserved kid, scouted for his talent, He enjoyed playing football back in Sabadell, which he has not experienced here in Barcelona. Yuri recalls his last conversation with Fukuda, who advised him to "communicate with the ball", just like he did with his father. Fukuda walks off on crutches with Hana by his side, wishing him the best.
Yuri passes the ball into a wide open space for Ascari, hoping Ascari understands his message, to attract the defender away. Ascari understands him, back-heeling the ball into the space he created for Yuri. Yuri gets to it, laying it off for Leonard, who finishes in the opposing net. Next day, Yuri waits for his taxi, happy he survived another day. The taxi pulls up in-front of him, greeting his teammate Leonard. Yuri notices Mauro is missing from the taxi, learning he'd been dropped. Yuri understood then and there, if it wasn't you that was dropped, it could be the person right next to you.

2024.05.15 11:56 boyazooga uncertainty
i’ve manifested pretty much everything i have wanted - i’ve been to both of the best schools in my country, have an amazing group of friends (so amazing that sometimes i cry just thinking about how happy 16 year old me would be knowing this), do not struggle for money, and i really like the way i look and dress. apart from one thing - i’ve never been in a proper relationship. this is literally all that i feel is missing from my life.
no matter how much i manifest, it just doesn’t seem to happen for me. i spent 3 years genuinely believing that it would happen one day, not worrying about it, and suddenly im 22 and nothing has happened.
im having doubts right now, because i asked out my SP - he’s a good friend, and i really thought he had been flirting with me for months, as did my other friends. i asked him out because i felt we kept missing what would be ‘our moment’ where something would happen naturally, and i know he’s a pretty shy guy himself. also, because we graduate in a couple of months, so i felt that time was running out. he initially said yes, but called me a few days ago to say that he’s thought about it and changed his mind, he doesn’t want to ruin the friendship - and he seemed genuinely surprised when i said i thought he’d been flirting with me, and said he didn’t mean to give those signs.
i see posts and videos online of people who are 30, 40, 50 and have never been in a relationship, and i worry that that will be me. i worry that even if i live in my belief that it is for me, 20 years will go by with nothing, as 3 years already have. it’s all i want in the world, but no matter what i do - love letter method, whisper method, self concept, detachment theory - it doesn’t come to me. which means i start having doubts about the law.
does anyone have any pearls of wisdom? sorry, i think i just need some reassurance, or maybe some explanation as to why this just isn’t working for me. what did i do wrong with SP? is there any hope, given that he’s rejected me and we are moving to different places in a couple months time? is it a sign from the universe that he’s not right for me?

2024.05.15 11:55 IndependenceBig9764 Too many black gfs in my friend group
I've always preferred black women. All my friends know this. I've dated a few in the past but the last couple girls I've been with weren't black. One of my friends has been with his black girlfriend for a while. Now I duno where where fuck they got the nerve, but in the past few months 2 of my other close friends have gotten into relationships with black women.
I'm worried how this might effect my chances with black girls in the future. I'm at the age where most of my socializing is everyone bringing their girlfriends out and hanging out as couples. These are some of my closest friends and it's very plausible that the first time a potential black girlfriend would meet my friends, it would be 3 other non-black guys with their respective black girlfriends. I'm in a place where black people are a very small percentage of the population. It will be weird for them. Get Out vibes. It reminds me of a Matt McCusker joke, it's okay to be in an interracial relationship but when your friends are in the same ones you start to look like "enthusiasts". One or two other black girls in a bigger, multicultural group would probably make them feel comfortable. But being the fourth one out of a much smaller group has a very different connotation.
It will probably be a non issue anyway, knowing my luck I won't even get a chance with another black girl again. I'll have to settle for off brand versions. Cambodians and Isaan girls. The blacks of Asia. "We have black girls at home" ass bitches. Maybe I'll get lucky and get a Polynesian. They're pretty black-coded. Or black-adjacent. Whatever you wana call it. They got black girl energy

2024.05.15 11:48 GK686 Here's the question of the day: should the model name be written or deleted?
 | Having owned two different Audi's over the last ten years, I've owned cars with and without the inscription and I can easily say that my preference is for the model inscription. When I told the authorized service that I wanted to add it, they said they could add the model name, for a small fee. When I shared this idea with my friends and family, they shared their opinions that on the contrary, not writing the model lettering provides a cleaner image. What do you think, should there be model lettering or not? submitted by GK686 to Audi [link] [comments] |

2024.05.15 11:42 Finance-Straight Starting to lose hope about ever getting married
I’m 23 turning 24 & i feel suuuupeeer old
I know there is a general marriage crisis going on but everyone around me (school friends, peers etc) seem to be getting alone just fine
I know comparison is the thief of joy & that Allah has blessed me in soo many other ways
However all the things i used to value (my education etc) i look at & think if does that even matter when no one even wants to marry me right now ?
Before anyone says you shouldn’t let a man pull your self-esteem down like that, it’s only natural to feel incomplete when you haven’t hit such a huge milestone
I’ve studied deep into the islamic sciences so i know better than to have shaky tawakkul - but tawakkul doesn’t come from books it comes from real life experience
I have been making dua for the last couple years - ramadan, in tahajjud, in palestine - all the blessed times & places
But Allah hasn’t decreed it yet😢
I know He is too generous to not give but i’m feeling less optimistic as the years go on - my family around me aren’t doing a great job at helping but tthe one story that’s in my head right now is how Prophet Yusuf asked his fellow prisoner to mention his release to the king & the prisoner forgot & remembered after 7 years! Prophet Yusuf remained patient & look how God rewarded him
So that reminds me that time isn’t being ‘wasted’ by my family being too slow with it all - it’s all just written to happen this way

2024.05.15 11:41 Wild-Dragonfly-3451 don't know what to think
Hi, i wanna get stright to the point. I'm(19F) with my bf(20M) for almost 2 years now. At first we were best friends and then we built a relationship. I started to feel rocd when i was with my ex, my ex and i were in relationship for only 2 months so this is my first serious relationship. I was overcoming a rocd for the past year and my bf was very supportive. We don't have perfect relationship, but we love each other very much, we learn from each other and grow together. Last year i found out that he liked some insta models bikini pics and i was very very mad about it(mostly bc im insecure, and what made me like that is that my dad cheated on my mum), even tho me myself liked some pics of some attractive guys. I told my bf about it and he stopped doing that without any problems, but that caused a lot of damage. I already had trust issues on my own, bc of my mental state and this made me go feral. A couple days ago pic of insta an model pop out on my insta suggested from like 2022 and thats one of the pics he liked back then. I got mad i dont even know why and i was very deffensive about it. We were fighting and he asked me to stop doing that to us bc he is really trying to be better for me and for us, and i always remind my self of this old fights. Then my rocd flare up again and i was having panic attacks for the last couple of days, i dont know what to do and what to think, do i deserve better, or maybe he deserves it?:(

2024.05.15 11:36 Virtual-Bicycle-3249 And again.
I went back and re-read one of your last letters... and I'm still stuck. "I appreciate that you're interested, but come on..." Except... "Does she like you?" and then "How much does she like you?" Maybe it's just my betrayal wounding, keeping me rooted in a problem that doesn't need to be one. You clearly got something out of the signals you sent or you wouldn't have done so. That doesn't have to mean anything. You didn't owe me. But we were friends, and you essentially played games with my heart, and that does mean something. It means a great deal to me because I've already been betrayed by so many.
You didn't know a lot of this, because we didn't ever really go that deep. I would have wanted to, but you never showed any interest in asking me the same kinds of personal questions I asked you in the beginning. I realize looking back that the information about me you did have was volunteered. And that tracks with what you said about your lack of attachment. Repression, disinterest, perception of being a third wheel. Why bother to feel if you believe your feelings will never be reciprocated? I know that feeling... except you put me on the receiving end because of your inability to connect to and manage yourself, and now I have to deal with that.
I realize how toxic my reactions to you were. How I jumped into fixing when I should have been taking a step back and letting you figure it out. And I get how that escalated things. That's something I have to work on, and forgive myself for. That's an issue in itself. It doesn't mitigate the game playing though. You didn't have to ...
It just hurts, I guess. I'm realizing part of that is shame, for not being more aware. Man after man has misled me about their intentions and instead of being more mindful of that, I hung on every word, every hint, rationalizing the mixed signals and hot and cold nonsense. One day, making me blush, the next, nowhere to be found or saying offensive stuff, refusing to apologize, and disappearing for a bit, only to come back and act like nothing happened a day or two later. It's maddening. I know better. But I was enamoured of you, and so attached, so I overlooked and made excuses and tried to fix, so I wouldn't have to say goodbye, and all I really did was magnify my own pain when it inevitably hit that this was convenient for you, pleasurable in the comfortable, distant way Internet connections can be, but it didn't really impact your every day life. Not like it did mine. I was looking for something in you that I should have been finding in myself. I'm an idealist, a romantic, and letting go of the idea of a great love is hard for me. There was so much about you that seemed familiar to me. I thought we had more in common than we do.
I don't really know what I'm getting at here. The fundamental core of this sentiment is you hurt me, and you didn't have to. I own my own shit. And I can see that you struggle to figure everything out, that you're trying to get better, and I appreciate that. But... you hurt me, and you didn't have to. I know you said sorry for leading me on. But all that about "mistakenly talking about" your "confusion" and telling me that I "can be very engaging"... so it's my fault? I mean, thanks for the compliment, but I really don't understand what that means. When I feel lonely and sad I return to that letter again and again, not to wallow, but because I feel tied in knots over how nonsensical some of it is. It's nobody's fault if you lead someone on except yours. It doesn't matter if they're a solid 10 (and I'm not, but let's go hyperbolic to slide the point home, shall we?). The responsibility for your behavior lays with you, just like mine does with me. I could be Aphrodite incarnate (I'm not) and you would still bear the sole responsibility for how you approached me. It doesn't matter that I'm a certain way, the only person who confused you is you. And if you had wanted to talk about it, I mean actually, really talk about it, I'd have held space. But to shame me for not being more forward when you weren't even sure you wanted me to be interested in the first place, only to tell me my interest is misplaced, and apologize for leading me on while distancing yourself from actually having done so... It's all so much circular, self indulgent bullshit.
And it isn't really that this one thing is coloring my entire experience of you... or that it's this world shattering big deal. It's not. I think I am fixated on that specifically because it hits on so many other experiences where men felt I was a sort of commodity to value or discard as they pleased, without regard for how it affected my well being. "I didn't mean to hurt you" doesn't always mean "I actively kept your wellbeing in mind, but I made mistakes and that hurt you, and I'm sorry". Sometimes, it means "I wasn't actively thinking about not hurting you." I'm sure you can see the difference in those two statements.
I suppose I could look inward, because when I was triggered by your outbursts and your lack of accountability, and later, your abandonment, I certainly wasn't thinking about your wellbeing. When I went NC the only aspect of you I was thinking about was the behavior and lack of good good faith I needed to protect myself from. I see how some of that is exaggerated. When you're not melting down, you're actually quite earnest. You said you don't attach, yet on multiple occasions you've demonstrated premeditated consideration. You can be quite thoughtful. Charming, sweet, earnest, provocative even (not in the antagonistic way, though you're very good at that, too).
You already said I deserved better. I don't know what I'm looking for here. It just hurts. It hurts, and it didn't have to.

2024.05.15 11:31 greyafender AITA for falling silent after a silent treatment from my girlfriend?
Last night, I informed my girlfriend that I was going to play online games with my friends. It’s been a while since I gamed with them (about two weeks or more), she’s aware of that and I also reminded her about it. I mentioned that we could still call if she wanted, but I might be a bit slow to respond since I get pretty absorbed in the game.
While I was playing and chatting with my friends, I still tried to keep up a conversation with her, even though multitasking isn’t my strong suit. I used two devices: she could hear me and my friends talking, but my friends couldn't hear her (I don't know whether this is relevant though, hahaha). After two hours, I left the game early because I didn't want her to feel neglected. However, when I ended the call with my friends, she didn’t respond to me. I kept trying to call her, and after about 3-5 minutes, she finally answered with just a "hmm?" I asked if she was sleepy, but then she went silent again.
Ever tried talking to someone who doesn’t respond? It's tiring as heck. So, I fell silent and started reading a book. After some time, she ended the call and blocked me on all social media, including my second account and phone number.
I attempted to reach out to her, but got no response, so I gave up. The next day, she still had me blocked. Then in the afternoon, she unblocked me and sent a message along the lines of, “Wow, you’re not searching for me at all, huh?” I saw it about 20 minutes after waking up from a nap and called her immediately, but she didn’t answer and blocked me again.
She left my Instagram unblocked but responded with very dry, delayed messages. I'm not sure how to handle this situation and would appreciate some advice on where I might have gone wrong. I realize going silent wasn’t ideal, but it's really exhausting to keep calling someone who hears you but chooses not to respond.
I'm 25, and she's 23 for the context.

2024.05.15 11:27 Snoo_30581 Nag bayad ng utang ang kaibigan ko
Tama pala talaga na dapat nag papa-utang ka lang ng kaya mo i-let go para hindi masakit sa damdamin kung di man bayaran.
Humiram tong kaibigan ko ng 10k last December and sabi ko 5k (ito kaya ko i-let go kahit di niya bayaran) lang kaya ko ibigay and she agreed to it. Sabi niya babayaran niya this May. Nawala na sa isip ko na may utang si friend tapos bigla siya nag chat kaninang umaga na na-transfer na raw niya yung nahiram niya. Nagulat pa ako kasi akala ko nagkamali siya kasi yung past utang niya alam ko bayad na. Pero pagka check ko nagpa hiram pala talaga uli ako. Nakaka happy lang na kusa siya nag bayad without reminders and sa part ko naman, maluwag sa dibdib ako nakapagpahiram ng pera noon.

2024.05.15 11:25 JokeCultural9610 Vox. One soul. Five fragmented personalities. Can you help me develop the fanfic, please?
I want to develop a character who has DID derived from PTSD, which in turn arose from a four-day period of suffering different atrocities. The character has no explicit memories of this four-day period, but their subconscious locks it away to avoid the pain of trauma and develops disorders as a defense mechanism. In addition to the mentioned disorders, the character has developed a refusal to eat food due to an apparently irrational line of thought and sensation that if they eat, they would be hypocritical for something, and therefore, more guilty. The character has 5 personalities. So far, I've only been able to conceptualize 3: the assistant, the machine, and the monster.
The monster is the murderous and harmful personality. It's what the character most instinctively tries to avoid manifesting, even if they don't know exactly why. It's the embodiment of their potential evil, and its appearances are always accompanied by tension and suspense. Even if not actually manifested (or is it?), the mere fact of appearing in nightmares and hallucinations already triggers panic attacks in the character. This is the most mysterious personality because the character has doubts about the nature of this personality that doesn't offer many explanations beyond the simple fact that it knows everything about him and is playing and affecting him; Is it a personality or a distinct demon? Is it a delusion or is it real? Is it himself or a separate being pretending to be him to scare him? Is it capable of killing the personalities, and if so, why doesn't it do it immediately instead of leaving the personalities unharmed? Why psychologically torture him if the function of fragmented personalities is to help in self-preservation? If it's real, why does it let him escape at the end of its ''games''? This personality (or not) is physically the largest, the most technological, the most inhuman, and presents more feats of strength despite appearing less, all geared towards psychological torture mainly, a literal kind of haunting like Pennywise's. It wreaks psychological havoc on the character in each of its personalities, and the most sensitive one, which is the one the other personalities most try to avoid being impacted by the monster, is the assistant personality, the personality that personifies human essence and, being based on the Superego and Ego and reflecting the distant past spent with his deceased good mother whose values were transmitted in his childhood and adolescence, is the personality that tries to maintain order, predominate, and reunite the fragmented personalities, although this self-imposed role is not easy and it is difficult to deal with the fear of what could happen if people found out that he and the other four 'people' are actually the same person who has DID; it is difficult to represent order while his other parts are more inclined to chaos and there is no direct interaction between the personalities. The assistant personality has blindness, whose degree varies depending nuancemente on the external and internal security situation it feels, but is always present because it results from an unresolved trauma. Glasses are used, the only one who does this. Blindness is more present in the assistant personality and less manifested in the other personalities because they are more detached from humanity. The assistant personality is the most divergent from what the character was before DID. Its form is more human, shorter, and less cybernetic, precisely because it reflects a distant period from the current one of the character. (A side note: the character is, in a way, a shapeshifter, so its personalities have a distinct form, some more similar to each other and others less similar, and vice versa. The metamorphosis is restricted to the forms the character has already had in its life and afterlife, and those forms it did not have are a more adapted version of the personality concept). The assistant is the most sensitive personality and the one that most tries to be virtuous, and because of these characteristics, it is the most vulnerable to the monster.
The machine personality is the psychological barrier. A wall for any emotions. An internal shield for trauma. It looks like a robot, like a machine, both for sentimental and behavioral issues. It does not feel emotions, is extremely rational, and is very connected to technology. Indeed, it is the most technological personality in the purest sense of the word, while the monster personality is the most technological in the most monstrous sense. Its function is to offer a more impartial view of situations and, because of the monster, to be the most solid shield for the assistant personality not to be haunted directly (and possibly killed) by the monster.
There are 2 more personalities to develop, and I'm working on it since it's a new idea I had.
The character is Vox.
The conceptual ideas for this fanfic that I intend to create, combined with my hobby of self-studying psychology/psychoanalysis/psychiatry, made me realize that I attribute four disorders to Vox:
• DID: According to the DSM-5 criteria, to be considered DID it is necessary: ▪︎Two or more distinct identities or personality states are present, each with its own relatively enduring pattern of perceiving, relating to, and thinking about the environment and self. ▪︎Amnesia must occur, defined as gaps in the recall of everyday events, important personal information, and/or traumatic events. ▪︎The person must be distressed by the disorder or have trouble functioning in one or more major life areas because of the disorder. ▪︎The disturbance is not part of normal cultural or religious practices. ▪︎The symptoms cannot be due to the direct physiological effects of a substance (such as blackouts or chaotic behavior during alcohol intoxication) or a general medical condition (such as complex partial seizures).
• PTSD: Symptoms of PTSD fall into the following four categories. Specific symptoms can vary in severity.
Intrusion: Intrusive thoughts such as repeated, involuntary memories; distressing dreams; or flashbacks of the traumatic event. Flashbacks may be so vivid that people feel they are reliving the traumatic experience or seeing it before their eyes. Avoidance: Avoiding reminders of the traumatic event may include avoiding people, places, activities, objects and situations that may trigger distressing memories. People may try to avoid remembering or thinking about the traumatic event. They may resist talking about what happened or how they feel about it. Alterations in cognition and mood: Inability to remember important aspects of the traumatic event, negative thoughts and feelings leading to ongoing and distorted beliefs about oneself or others (e.g., “I am bad,” “No one can be trusted”); distorted thoughts about the cause or consequences of the event leading to wrongly blaming self or other; ongoing fear, horror, anger, guilt or shame; much less interest in activities previously enjoyed; feeling detached or estranged from others; or being unable to experience positive emotions (a void of happiness or satisfaction). Alterations in arousal and reactivity: Arousal and reactive symptoms may include being irritable and having angry outbursts; behaving recklessly or in a self-destructive way; being overly watchful of one's surroundings in a suspecting way; being easily startled; or having problems concentrating or sleeping. Many people who are exposed to a traumatic event experience symptoms similar to those described above in the days following the event. For a person to be diagnosed with PTSD, however, symptoms must last for more than a month and must cause significant distress or problems in the individual's daily functioning. Many individuals develop symptoms within three months of the trauma, but symptoms may appear later and often persist for months and sometimes years. PTSD often occurs with other related conditions, such as depression, substance use, memory problems and other physical and mental health problems.
The four tabs below provide brief descriptions of four conditions related to PTSD: acute stress disorder, adjustment disorder, disinhibited social engagement disorder, and reactive attachment disorder. Source: https://www.psychiatry.org/patients-families/ptsd/what-is-ptsd • Psychotic Depression: Psychotic depression Some people who have severe depression may also experience hallucinations and delusional thinking, the symptoms of psychosis.
Depression with psychosis is known as psychotic depression.
Symptoms of depression Someone with depression feels sad and hopeless for most of the day, practically every day, and has no interest in anything. Getting through the day feels almost impossible.
Other typical symptoms of depression may include:
fatigue (exhaustion) disturbed sleep changes in appetite feeling worthless and guilty being unable to concentrate or being indecisive thoughts of death or suicide Doctors describe depression as mild, moderate or severe depending on your symptoms, how long it lasts and how much it affects your daily life.
Read more about the psychological, physical and social symptoms of clinical depression
Symptoms of psychosis Having moments of psychosis (when people lose some contact with reality) means experiencing:
delusions – thoughts or beliefs that are unlikely to be true hallucinations – hearing and, in some cases, feeling, smelling, seeing or tasting things that are not there; hearing voices is a common hallucination The delusions and hallucinations almost always reflect the person's deeply depressed mood – for example, they may become convinced they're to blame for something, or that they've committed a crime.
"Psychomotor agitation" is also common. This means not being able to relax or sit still, and constantly fidgeting.
At the other extreme, a person with psychotic depression may have "psychomotor retardation", where both their thoughts and physical movements slow down.
People with psychotic depression have an increased risk of thinking about suicide. Source for more information: https://www.nhs.uk/mental-health/conditions/psychotic-depression/
• An as-yet unidentified eating disorder: This is the only one in which I do not know which exact diagnosis it fits into. It is a consequence of the trauma from the four-day period - including this period being one of the biggest mysteries in history and a great source of theories for readers, as it is the root of Vox's psychological mess, the divergence point that originated the entire fanfic and which the protagonist DOES NOT want to remember - that resulted in the trauma of eating. He does not feel like eating, not even the SIN OF GLUTTONY is able to make him eat - he is immune to her powers - and feels an apparently inexplicable instinct of guilt and hypocrisy when trying to eat, as if he were the worst being in the universe if he ate a food and a huge hypocrite; why and what exactly this innate thought of judging himself as a hypocrite is another mystery in the plot.
In this story, at least in the initial arcs, no one associates all five as being the same person, at most they associate only one/two of them with Vox. With the climaxes (yes, it's in the plural) throughout the story, the characters will find evidence and suspect and associate more and more of the other alters (as I call Vox's fragmented personalities) with the same person, which increases the narrative tension. Being the assistant personality the last to be accurately associated by the other characters, although she was the one that had the most tension and care in NOT being associated throughout the story because she is the human essence of Vox, reflects more the fragility of his soul state and is not ready to deal with the harsh social consequences that the actions of the other alters and Vox before DID caused, needing solid support and not wanting to lose all the friendly social relationships, although fragile, that he built as a separate being from Vox and the other alters. It is easier to hate than to love. The assistant personality does not want to risk losing the little support he has built. These relationships are extremely valuable to him. He doesn't want to have this taken away from him anymore. The relationships he built are based on the inhabitants of Hazbin Hotel.
All alters have Vox's trademark: the TV as
a head. All... except the assistant personality. This alter is the ONLY one that has a human head and is the smallest, being even a few centimeters smaller than Lucifer. The size of his hair goes up to just above his shoulders, but he ties them in a professional hairstyle. His clothes are similar to those of an assistant, and they have a palette of blue, black, and white colors. The color of his hair, influenced by his powers as a Media Demon, is black with dark blue streaks and tips.
His human appearance reflects a period when Vox was human. In my story Vox is a trans man, which means he was born female and went through a transition at some point in his adolescence or adulthood. The appearance of the assistant personality reflects an episode during his 13/14 years. In this episode, he did a special show for his father's assistant at a fancy restaurant. It was her last night in his life as she would unfortunately be sent away without a chance to return, and he was aware of this. He also knew that his father was responsible for her being sent away, although his innocence at the time made him not immediately detect that she would be KILLED by a hired hitman hired by the father and mother. The assistant was a loved one by the teenage Vox. She was a loving mother he never had, and because of the emotional attachment to her, he decided to do a musical show, showing for the first and last time to anyone his talent for piano and violin. He, at the time still not going through the transition, dressed more masculinely, used the best appearance he could, and used a pseudonym to enter the restaurant and make the presentation without being detected by the family. He did not explicitly specify for whom the music was intended, but the assistant, secretly his true biological mother, knew it was for her. That was the last time he would see her, and he made every second of that night count.
Vox's human female name was Elizabeth. I chose this name because it is a beautiful name, it was the name of the former queen of the United Kingdom, and it was the name of one of Jack the Ripper's victims, Elizabeth Stride.
Vox, during his adult life as a man and even post-death, buried his past as a woman. It was not a source of pride, especially for the family abuses suffered and the transphobia of the time. If the Vees, the people closest to him currently, do not have a deep understanding of Vox's human life as a man, imagine their knowledge of the initial part of his life before the transition!
That's why being called "Elizabeth" during the direct and indirect appearances of the monster personality already causes genuine and unmasked panic in him. It is an indication of knowledge of his deepest layers.
The story has a suspenseful atmosphere, with some horror scenes. We follow the alters individually, and as the story progresses, we realize along with the protagonist some strange, wrong things. The alters do not communicate directly with each other and, therefore, the character does not immediately perceive the signs of having multiple personalities. It was as if there were four people in one body and none of them noticed, according to the perspective of the assistant personality, the alter that we slowly follow discovering the huge web of the situation he's in. There's something very wrong with Vox, more specifically his soul. But there's an invisible barrier that prevents the character from investigating further, like an elephant in the middle of the room. Each alter has its own course, all acting as if they were distinct people and not associating with each other. This is bad socially speaking in the long run, because sooner or later the clash of beliefs and values built among the alters will come into conflict and the individual consequences of their actions will negatively impact each other. The monster personality served to add more salt to the wound. It is by far the most harmful, appearing little but causing a huge mess in return. Don't think of it as a kind of Hulk, because Hulk is a destructive monster that his counterpart, Bruce, can try to control and turn into a hero, and everyone is aware of Hulk's nature, which is easy to understand and try to contain; whereas the monster personality is an enigma at the same time as it is a nightmare, there is no discussion with it, it causes psychological terror in Vox's alters, its apparently internal actions affect the external world of the alters, it is unpredictable, it is the literal meaning of hell. The monster personality has already caused physical harm to the alters, although they did not exactly remember, mainly the assistant personality, the most oblivious of all for a reason. I want to relate the monster personality to Roo.

Don't think of it as a kind of Hulk, because Hulk is a destructive monster that his counterpart, Bruce, can try to control and turn into a hero, and everyone is aware of Hulk's nature, which is easy to understand and try to contain; whereas the monster personality is an enigma at the same time as it is a nightmare, there is no discussion with it, it causes psychological terror in Vox's alters, its apparently internal actions affect the external world of the alters, it is unpredictable, it is the literal meaning of hell. The monster personality has already caused physical harm to the alters, although they did not exactly remember, mainly the assistant personality, the most oblivious of all for a reason. I want to relate the monster personality to Roo.
2024.05.15 11:25 NorthernStarzx When did you realise you couldn't stay in denial about being Lesbian?
I think for me it was when I was 14 and I got my first sexual attraction and it was towards a woman. Watched a film with two women in and that was it, I broke out in sweat and got stomach ache because the butterflies were so strong and I realised right there and then "nope, I'm definitely lesbian, no denying it now" before that I told myself it was a phase, that one day I'd be boy crazy like all my friends were, that it would "go away " Of course it didn't and looking back there were so many obvious signs that I ignored or brushed off, the most embarrassing one being spraying a blanket on my bed with perfume and sleeping with it every night because it reminded me of a famous woman I liked (a bit weird I know but I was 11 at the time)
What was it for you? what was your "Yep, I'm definitely lesbian" moment?

Linen, a fabric that whispers of age-old tradition and natural elegance, holds a special place in the hearts of those who value sustainability and style. Originating from the flax plant, linen is not just a fabric; it's a testament to durability and comfort, making it a beloved choice for both fashion and home decor. In the warm, vibrant landscapes of South Africa, linen transcends merely being a material to becoming a lifestyle choice, perfectly suited to the country's sunny climate and laid-back elegance.
As you explore the world of linen, you'll discover its unique properties that make it a real summer fabric, yet versatile enough for all seasons. Its ability to wear airy, stay cool, and dry quickly, alongside its eco-friendly and long-lasting nature, makes linen a smart choice for those looking to blend style with sustainability. Whether it's in the form of chic dresses, wide-leg pants for the fashion-forward, or as part of your home's interior with linen bedding and pillows, linen brings a unique, casual look that's effortlessly sophisticated.
But it's not just about looks; durability is where linen truly shines. Sheeting linen, with its high thread count, offers an extra layer of durability, making it perfect for everyday use without sacrificing its beauty. This resilience makes linen an intelligent choice for those seeking quality and style in one package. Over time, linen doesn't weaken but instead becomes softer, enhancing its usability and aesthetic appeal with every wash.
From luxurious India Ink Home Decor collections to locally crafted pieces, linen is a staple material. It's employed in creating everything from plush bedding that cools in the summer nights to elegant tablecloths that elevate a dining experience. Linen pillows and poufs add a touch of casual elegance to any room, making spaces more inviting and comfortable.
Moreover, the aesthetic of linen items in home decor cannot be overstated. Their unique texture and the way they gracefully drape offer a balance between laid-back and refined, embodying a lifestyle that appreciates both comfort and elegance. Choosing linen for your Best Home Decor selections means opting for pieces that age gracefully, becoming more beautiful with time and use.

Whether you're dressing up your living space or adding a touch of sophistication to your wardrobe, linen's unmatched blend of beauty and durability makes it an enduring favourite.
The production of linen is more labor-intensive than that of cotton, but it's a process that respects the environment, harnessing traditional farming techniques that have stood the test of time. This aspect makes linen not just a fabric, but a testament to eco-friendly practices that align with the values of sustainability-minded consumers, especially those seeking the best home decor options that India Ink and similar brands offer.
For those invested in creating a home with the best home decor, choosing linen not only adds a touch of luxury but also makes a statement about sustainable living.

Linen's durability and biodegradability ensure that your choice is not only an investment in aesthetics but in the planet's future as well.
Firstly, always check the care label before laundering your linen items. Typically, linen is machine washable in lukewarm water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild, liquid detergent to avoid any harshness on the fibres. It's crucial to avoid bleaching your linen, as this can weaken the fibres and alter the colour, diminishing the natural beauty of the fabric.
Drying your linen correctly is just as important as how you wash it. While tumble drying on a low heat setting is generally safe, air drying is preferable for preserving the fabric's quality and reducing energy consumption. Hang or lay your items flat in a shaded area, as direct sunlight can cause fading.
Ironing linen, while not always necessary thanks to its naturally relaxed texture, should be done while the fabric is still slightly damp. Use a medium-hot iron and press on the wrong side to avoid shiny marks. For an immaculate finish, consider using a steam iron.
For linen items that are part of your home decor, like draperies or upholstered furniture, regular vacuuming with a soft brush attachment can minimise dust accumulation. Spot clean any spills immediately with a damp cloth, avoiding rubbing, which can embed stains deeper into the fabric.
Remember, linen's beauty lies in its natural, slightly wrinkled appearance, embodying effortless elegance and comfort. By following these care tips, you'll ensure your linen home decor continues to add a touch of warmth and sophistication to your home, embodying the best of practicality and style.

A bit of backstory i lived in a 20 square meters apartment since high school because my parents house was too small to fit all 5 children and because im the eldest i had to move out first.I mean its not a big deal and i find a good job and rented this small apartment.After 2 years of hard work i get promoted to a new state and i earned 200000$ in the next 5 months so i was happy to finally be able to buy i house.I found a house in a nice neighborhood for a good price and it has 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms,kitchen and big garden in the fornt.
When I moved to the new neighborhood, I was filled with optimism and hope. The house was exactly what I was looking for - peaceful, with a beautiful garden and enough space for my favorite hobby, gardening. The first few weeks everything was wonderful. My neighbors seemed friendly, except for the neighbor next to me who will call Karen.
At first I didn't pay much attention to her unfriendly looks and comments. But over time, things started to deteriorate. Karen was clearly not happy with my presence and never missed an opportunity to show it. It started with complaints about the smallest things - noise from my lawnmower when I cut the lawn, my flowers that "disrupted the aesthetics" of the neighborhood, and other such ridiculous claims.
One day, while I was working in the garden, Karen came over and started yelling that I was disturbing the peace of the neighborhood. I tried to calm her down and explain that I was just doing my job, but she wouldn't listen. This was the first sign that she was not going to be easy to deal with.
Soon after, Karen began calling the police with false accusations. He claimed that I was in my house illegally and that I was probably a criminal. When the police came, I showed them my title deeds and explained the situation. They quickly realized that Karen was making false accusations and warned her to stop complaining.
But that didn't stop her. She started sending letters to the municipality, organizing neighborhood meetings to complain about me, and spreading rumors that I had a criminal record. All this became so unbearable that I decided to take more serious measures.
One night, after Karen called the police again with false accusations, my patience ran out. I waited until late in the evening when everything was quiet. Then I approached her house and saw that she was still awake, sitting in the living room watching TV.
I knocked on her door. Karen opened the door with a smile, expecting another neighbor to complain about me. But instead, she faced me. Before she could say anything, the rage and frustration that had been building up in me was unleashed and I hit her.
Karen fell to the ground, shocked and scared. I leaned over her and told her in a low but firm voice that it was high time she stopped trying to harm me. I made it clear to her that I would not tolerate her harassment any longer and that if it continued I would go to the authorities and file a formal harassment complaint.
After this incident, Karen changed her behavior. She no longer engaged with me and even avoided contact with me. I went about my life in peace and enjoyed my garden. Although I did not condone violence, I realized that sometimes people like Karen need to be put in their place to understand that they cannot act with impunity

2024.05.15 11:04 Major_Cod_1548 I think my ex is trying to get me expelled and I don't know what to do 😢
I won't give out real names so I'll just make some up because I don't want them to be angry if they ever find this. For context, me and my ex (sam) broke up a few months ago after we figured out we were going to different schools. She broke up over text and after that I never looked at her the same way since. We got together because I figured out she liked me but I didn't like her, it was from her ex (Emma) who slipped me a note saying her ex (sam) liked me. I actually liked had a crush on Emma because we knew more about each other then I knew about Sam. The only time I ever even heard Sam's voice was when she was saying "I'll smack the shit out of you if you do", sam and Emma were arguing about something but I thought they were going to fight, it was actually friendly?. I don't know how telling someone you'll beat the fuck out of them is a "friendly argument" but I went along with it. Me and Emma were talking about things with each other and got to know each other very well. She told me about her break up and how it hurt because Sam just walked up to her and said they should break up out of nowhere. I offered to try and help her out with the relationship between them and after a few days of talking that's when I realized it was one sided love and the day I realized I should never be a relationship therapist because I fucking suck. But yeah, I liked Emma but I was to nervous to tell her, I was giving hints because usually when we joked around and she said "I hate you" or something to make fun of me, I fuck with her and say something like "love you too buddy". We were great friends until she handed me the note and I don't know why but for some reason I actually started dating her ex without thinking about her, she thought her sam was trying to get back at her when really it was my fault. One day Emma told Sam that I didn't actually like her, I only liked her last year which was true but still got to me and that I only thought of her as a friend which made me mad and I cut her off, we would try our best to stay away from each other but one day she had a gf, let's name her, Stacy. Stacy was a year younger than Emma and I was making jokes about it and I was still feeling mad from her messages so I told Stacy she was using her to make Sam jealous and I showed Stacy the messages of everything, they broke up a few days after and I've been feeling like shit ever since. While me and Sam were dating, Sam got a missed call from Emma and When we tried to call her back she didn't answer. Messages, calls, video chat, any way we could. To let you guys know, she was also telling Sam she was going to end it if she didn't break up with me, so I could only think of the worst, what if she tried one last time before ending it, it was during the weekend so I was relieved when I saw her still alive at school. Fast forward to the break up. When I told Sam, she felt guilty for sending me the messages, a few weeks later we broke up and the only thing she was saying was that she felt bad about the messages and she going to a different school, sam went on to tell me that I was getting in the way of her studying even though she only sits on her phone for the whole period and doesn't do anything. I felt really hurt but I made myself happy for sam, I apologized to sam and told her that I was going to be deleting everything about us because I didn't want to be reminded of her and I didn't want the same for her either. I'm a over thinker and I have ADHD so I can admit I did tell her in advance to block me on all social media because one day I was going to try and talk to her again and end up sad when she blocked me for trying to talk to her and sure enough, after a few weeks I kept messaging her but then blocked her again because I felt to nervous to actually start talking. Fast forward to the important part of why they are trying to get me expelled. I started talking to Emma and apologized for everything I did to her, got with her ex instead of her, found out she had a crush on me this year and it got worse because I started dating her ex. So I think she was trying to break us up and then comfort me into dating her, I forgave her for that because love can change anything. My friend stopped showing up to school because he's home schooled now and a few weeks later the girl is emo and is barely talking to everyone. Sorry for that 😅, back to what I was talking about though, we were friends for a week and she told me we have to stop talking, this also was over text but this is after a incident happened between me and Sam's friend, let's call her horny girl or just hg for short, you'll love the reason for that name in a little bit trust me😈. Emma was telling me we shouldn't talk, I asked her why and she said it's because of hg and she said she was going to IN HER WORDS "beat my ass if I got with Emma" I don't know why she gives a fuck but I think she thinks I would do that to get back at Sam, ngl if I really was a asshole I probably would have but I was going to use her because we both saw each other as friends and I kinda like her but ever since everything happened we were just awkward friends, and even if I did date her it would be dumb as hell because not only is she going to a different school but it's only two weeks before school ends. Not to sound rude but hg is on the bigger side and she is just weird, I was uncomfortable for the first week of dating Sam because hg would sit behind me and make lewd hand gestures and since Sam was facing me, she saw what she was doing and just laughed hystericly, a few sam told me was she was making jokes of Sam stroking my y'know, giving me a bj, us having intercourse and me putting my fingers in her, that's all I can remember but the rest she wouldn't tell me. I started laughing over the text until I realized she was serious and I got mad so the next day I went up to hg and told her that if she can talk shit then she can easily say it in front of my face, we started yelling and it ended with me saying i don't have to fight her because my sister can come up and beat her ass for me, my sister is known in multiple schools for her fights and some of her friends are at my school so if my sister didn't want to fight she could easily tell her friends to jump her. I'm a guy so I'm not hitting a girl unless I have to. The next day, Emma said we should stop talking and this time she ment it, I said okay I understand why you want to do that and I respect your decision and we blocked each other. I haven't been showing up to my classes and my teachers are asking if it's because of what's going on, I didn't want to cause anymore problems so I just lied and said ether I must have forgotten or I was just uncomfortable with someone, I didn't say names but I think they already knew. Yesterday I didn't show up to school and a teacher was telling the principal about my incident with hg, funny thing I want to tell you is I made a name for the friend group and it's the main three, I call them the hgg because they all are kinda kinky so I call them the horny girl group, I have some information I got from people and the personal experience so if they want to keep making shit up about me then I can easily leak it on here and on the school page. The other two girls are my ex and the second girl who all you need to know why she's in the group is because she showed us a picture, pointed at a random boy in the photo (a friend of mine whos in the school) and said that was her cruch and I can't make this shit up when I say this "I want him to make me pregnant" yeah go back and read a few more times. no typo, no mistake, you Read it correctly and to make it worse, WE'RE IN 8TH FUCKING GRADE, so lt that sink in. An 8th grade girl is saying some shit not even girls I've met in college would say😂. And I have way more shit on my ex, the only thing I can say because I don't want to give you the best part was she used to watch certain videos and did stuff to herself when she would watch them, and you might be thinking of it's just hormones, that happens at that age. Bullshit😂 she was 8 when she was doing it so you can't blame it on that. Back to the story, they have been saying stuff to the teachers I'm close to and not only trying to kick me out of a class (I don't go to, I just go because of the dogs) but they are telling the principal that I'm making them uncomfortable and some other shit I can't remember. But yeah, I'll give updates if anything bad happens👍🏽

2024.05.15 11:02 FigSavings9615 Dormant/Dissolved Fleecehold Management Company Advice, can I pay them?
Apologies in advance for the big wall of text!
I've owned a freehold property in England for the last 2 years (bought as a new build) that has a shared private parking area that is managed by a Management Company set up by the developer, and currently still managed by that developer. Part of the sale included being required to pay a service fee to that management company. I was ok with this because part of the TP1 the agreement was that the ownership of the parking area would be transferred to the management company, and the residents made managing directors of the company. This happened happened yet, however, since the remaining plots haven't yet been sold.
After 2 years of sending no invoices for the service charges, they've suddenly sent 3, for the 2 previous years and a year in advance.
For at least the first year, the management company was officially dormant on companies house.
After I sent a letter in response to the invoices asking for accounts of what work had been carried out, which as part of the TP1 they were supposed to have compiled each year and sent to us (which they didn't), I received a response saying they wouldn't send the accounts, followed the next day by a final reminder and a threat of court action.
The day after that day, the company was dissolved by Companies house for not filing required documents.
The charges are £500 per year, which is excessive for a small parking area. However, I'm aware that as a freeholder I don't have the same rights as leaseholders to contest the charge itself. I also know there's legislation on the way to remedy this. I've also seen information about them being able to forcibly convert my freehold property into a leasehold, but I'm unsure about the conditions under which they can do this!
I'm pretty sure that right now I do have to pay the charges, but I don't know:-
I'm grateful for any advice given, even if the advice is "you need to just pay it and live with it"! Right now I just don't know what the right thing to do is!
The development company is privately owned by a single individual who has proven in the past to be untrustworthy, breaking promises, outright lying, and intimidating residents to get his way in previous interactions. So I'm not confident there's any recourse via any kind of customer service or complaints resolution process with the developer.

I'm pretty sure that right now I do have to pay the charges, but I don't know:-
- Should I be paying for the period the company was dormant? Would I be able to contest that at court?
- Should I pay a now-dissolved company? What happens to the money I send?
- Can the now-dissolved company actually take me to court?
- Is there anything lawful I can do to delay this until the new legislation (the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill) comes into effect at which point I could contest the charges?

2024.05.15 11:00 Tanagrabelle Unpopular Opinion: In Defense of Frannie Goldsmith
I wanted to do discussion, too, but it's definitely spoilers.
Frannie Goldsmith. Daughter of a decently well-off couple. Securely in college. Has a boyfriend. She's a little bit of a flake, prone to giggling under stress.
The devil, though, is in the details.
Frannie was raised by a very kind father. Indulged and spoiled, and allowed to do what she pleased. Wait, something is odd here. No, don't tell me. Ah, yes. She has a mother, too. A mother. She had a brother, but he's long passed away. A mother who seems to hate her, would probably abuse her if no one would notice, who wants her to be not heard, and doesn't particularly care to see her. A vicious woman.
And her father? He never calls his wife to account for her treatment of Frannie. He lets is happen, and as a result, Frannie is beaten down emotionally. She goes a little bit to pieces under pressure, and like many people who've grown up abused, her boyfriend is a tiny bit more toward the negative in her life than the positive. And when he strikes her, she knows that he is a person who will physically lash out when his pride is stung. In short, he's someone more like her mother.
Frannie's grown up with a father she loves, who has taught her that men will allow you to be harmed, insulted, belittled, demeaned. And they'll pat you and comfort you when you run to them from your abuser.
She nurses her father through to the end while the world is falling apart. Then she goes and nurses Gus through to the end. And then, she and Harold are the only ones left and Harold is a person who tends to belittle and demean people... a bit like her mother. And a bit like her mother, turns into a nightmare when thwarted. Though, unlike her mother, he has iron self-control and hides it. Thus, she is fooled for a long time.
And she meets Stu. Stu is nothing like her mother. He's like her father in that he's straightforward and kind. Unlike her father, though, he doesn't seem like the kind to stand there and let his wife abuse their child. Except he might be. Stu once thought about the negative traits of his friends (I can't remember everyone's names right now). I have this vague memory that it disturbed Stu to remember he had never taken his friends to task for things like one man who perhaps abused his children. Of course Frannie's attracted to Stu, he reminds her of her father who, for all he failed to stand up for Frannie until it was too late, at least was never the abuser.

2024.05.15 10:56 Major_Cod_1548 I think my ex is trying to get me expelled and I don't know what to do 😢
I won't give out real names so I'll just make some up because I don't want them to be angry if they ever find this. For context, me and my ex (sam) broke up a few months ago after we figured out we were going to different schools. She broke up over text and after that I never looked at her the same way since. We got together because I figured out she liked me but I didn't like her, it was from her ex (Emma) who slipped me a note saying her ex (sam) liked me. I actually liked had a crush on Emma because we knew more about each other then I knew about Sam. The only time I ever even heard Sam's voice was when she was saying "I'll smack the shit out of you if you do", sam and Emma were arguing about something but I thought they were going to fight, it was actually friendly?. I don't know how telling someone you'll beat the fuck out of them is a "friendly argument" but I went along with it. Me and Emma were talking about things with each other and got to know each other very well. She told me about her break up and how it hurt because Sam just walked up to her and said they should break up out of nowhere. I offered to try and help her out with the relationship between them and after a few days of talking that's when I realized it was one sided love and the day I realized I should never be a relationship therapist because I fucking suck. But yeah, I liked Emma but I was to nervous to tell her, I was giving hints because usually when we joked around and she said "I hate you" or something to make fun of me, I fuck with her and say something like "love you too buddy". We were great friends until she handed me the note and I don't know why but for some reason I actually started dating her ex without thinking about her, she thought her sam was trying to get back at her when really it was my fault. One day Emma told Sam that I didn't actually like her, I only liked her last year which was true but still got to me and that I only thought of her as a friend which made me mad and I cut her off, we would try our best to stay away from each other but one day she had a gf, let's name her, Stacy. Stacy was a year younger than Emma and I was making jokes about it and I was still feeling mad from her messages so I told Stacy she was using her to make Sam jealous and I showed Stacy the messages of everything, they broke up a few days after and I've been feeling like shit ever since. While me and Sam were dating, Sam got a missed call from Emma and When we tried to call her back she didn't answer. Messages, calls, video chat, any way we could. To let you guys know, she was also telling Sam she was going to end it if she didn't break up with me, so I could only think of the worst, what if she tried one last time before ending it, it was during the weekend so I was relieved when I saw her still alive at school. Fast forward to the break up. When I told Sam, she felt guilty for sending me the messages, a few weeks later we broke up and the only thing she was saying was that she felt bad about the messages and she going to a different school, sam went on to tell me that I was getting in the way of her studying even though she only sits on her phone for the whole period and doesn't do anything. I felt really hurt but I made myself happy for sam, I apologized to sam and told her that I was going to be deleting everything about us because I didn't want to be reminded of her and I didn't want the same for her either. I'm a over thinker and I have ADHD so I can admit I did tell her in advance to block me on all social media because one day I was going to try and talk to her again and end up sad when she blocked me for trying to talk to her and sure enough, after a few weeks I kept messaging her but then blocked her again because I felt to nervous to actually start talking. Fast forward to the important part of why they are trying to get me expelled. I started talking to Emma and apologized for everything I did to her, got with her ex instead of her, found out she had a crush on me this year and it got worse because I started dating her ex. So I think she was trying to break us up and then comfort me into dating her, I forgave her for that because love can change anything. My friend stopped showing up to school because he's home schooled now and a few weeks later the girl is emo and is barely talking to everyone. Sorry for that 😅, back to what I was talking about though, we were friends for a week and she told me we have to stop talking, this also was over text but this is after a incident happened between me and Sam's friend, let's call her horny girl or just hg for short, you'll love the reason for that name in a little bit trust me😈. Emma was telling me we shouldn't talk, I asked her why and she said it's because of hg and she said she was going to IN HER WORDS "beat my ass if I got with Emma" I don't know why she gives a fuck but I think she thinks I would do that to get back at Sam, ngl if I really was a asshole I probably would have but I was going to use her because we both saw each other as friends and I kinda like her but ever since everything happened we were just awkward friends, and even if I did date her it would be dumb as hell because not only is she going to a different school but it's only two weeks before school ends. Not to sound rude but hg is on the bigger side and she is just weird, I was uncomfortable for the first week of dating Sam because hg would sit behind me and make lewd hand gestures and since Sam was facing me, she saw what she was doing and just laughed hystericly, a few sam told me was she was making jokes of Sam stroking my y'know, giving me a bj, us having intercourse and me putting my fingers in her, that's all I can remember but the rest she wouldn't tell me. I started laughing over the text until I realized she was serious and I got mad so the next day I went up to hg and told her that if she can talk shit then she can easily say it in front of my face, we started yelling and it ended with me saying i don't have to fight her because my sister can come up and beat her ass for me, my sister is known in multiple schools for her fights and some of her friends are at my school so if my sister didn't want to fight she could easily tell her friends to jump her. I'm a guy so I'm not hitting a girl unless I have to. The next day, Emma said we should stop talking and this time she ment it, I said okay I understand why you want to do that and I respect your decision and we blocked each other. I haven't been showing up to my classes and my teachers are asking if it's because of what's going on, I didn't want to cause anymore problems so I just lied and said ether I must have forgotten or I was just uncomfortable with someone, I didn't say names but I think they already knew.

An 8th grade girl is saying some shit not even girls I've met in college would say😂. And I have way more shit on my ex, the only thing I can say because I don't want to give you the best part was she used to watch certain videos and did stuff to herself when she would watch them, and you might be thinking of it's just hormones, that happens at that age.
