2024.05.16 04:59 accidentalswifty Animal control is on a mission to make me miserable

TL/DR; I got into some legal trouble, part of the fallout was my abusive ex calling the city and reporting that my animals were neglected and they couldn’t prove it in court but I pled to a lesser charge to be done with it. Since then, they have been itching to find me in violation of my probation and ultimately got me for having one more dog than the city allows. I have had four dogs as long as I’ve lived here and I now have to go to court and explain why I was violating my probation. The initial charges were issued based off a picture submitted by someone who didn’t have authorization to be on my property and the second time evidence was obtained after the officer climbed up on my fence and looked into my yard, without a warrant or my permission and then he threatened to seize my animals if I didn’t comply with his demands.
I went to jail on NYE and was in there for three days (weekend/holiday) for a petty crime. My 4 dogs and 2 others that I was watching for a friend were at my house. My best friend cared for them (very well might I add) while I was in jail. Animal control was contacted by my ex claiming the dogs were left alone, mistreated, and that I was boarding animals at my home. I returned home from jail and animal control was waiting for me at my house. He’s new, still has the creases in his uniform, stands about two feet shorter than me and takes his job very seriously. You know the type. Regardless of Paul Blart’s larger than life personality, I remained professional throughout all of our interactions. He wrote me a citation for animal cruelty for leaving my dogs regardless of the fact they were cared for, unauthorized use of a residence (because I accepted money from my friends to watch their dogs), not picking poop within 48 hours, hard to do when in jail, and number of dogs on premises (the city allows 3 dogs max, I have lived here for 8 years unaware of this and I moved here with the same 4 dogs I have now and that’s not changing). Prosecutor in my tiny town of like 30,000 people recommended 11 days of jail (no, I’m not joking). I pled to number of dogs on premise and the boarding charge in exchange for 1 year unsupervised probation as the judge didn’t exactly see eye to eye with the prosecutor. To my knowledge, animal control has been aware that I’ve had four dogs and I have certainly not given them any reason to believe I have less than four dogs. That I can assert without a shred of doubt.
A month after we reached an agreement, I received a letter in the mail from the same officer, stating that on 4/8 they received a complaint that my dogs were barking in excess. He edited the standard message to include that this would be my only warning and that the next one would be a summons, which would violate my probation. He made note of the complaint which was received via our cities “app” where anyone can report anything and they may do so without any ounce of personal information tied to it. What struck me as odd was that the “complaint” came in on 4/8, however the letter and the report were filed on 4/7. What’s even stranger, is that I was camping 3 hours away with all four of my dogs for a week and didn’t return home until 4/11. I can’t help but to feel like that was anything other than a targeted attempt to punish me.
A week after that, animal control is in my alley looking over my fence into my yard. Harassing my dogs who were now barking aggressively (as they have every right to do might I add, I don’t care if the FBI or the Pope are peering over my fence, unless you have my permission to do so my dogs can do whatever the hell they want). A few minutes later there’s a knock at my door, he tells me that I’m in violation of the ordinance regarding the number of animals I have on premise. I told him that * ”I do not wish to speak to you anymore because every time I have been honest with you— I have only ever been honest with him— it was under the pretense that you were “concerned” with my animals and you used that concern against me” * His supervisor, who is a literal Paul Blart on steroids told me that I would either do whatever the officer said or they would “seize whichever dogs they wished to at their discretion and I could go to court to get them back but that likely wouldn’t end in my favor”— that’s a direct quote. He then asked me to bring my dogs out one at a time for him to “inspect”, all of whom were healthy and in great shape as they’ve always been (which we both agreed on). He then issued me a summons. A day later I received a letter in the mail from the court stating I was in violation of my probation and that I needed to appear at a different date to explain to the judge why I was violating my probation.
Can animal control look over my fence? Am I not to expect a certain level of privacy in my own home? What if I had been back there sunbathing in the nude and does it make a difference if I was or not?
They didn’t have a warrant but they threatened to take my dogs away if I didn’t comply. That just feels fucked up to me, pardon my French.
What’s my angle in court? I cannot afford an attorney and the public defender they appointed me last time is a sleaze so that’s a no go.

2024.05.16 04:59 windowlight9 Being stalked by the guy who would regularly beat me up in high school

I’m a 25 year old man. I was brutally bullied in high school and called a slave n***** boy any time I came across the dude who found joy in my suffering. He has given me black eyes which I had to go to the hospital to get checked, lifted me in the air while I was dizzy and slammed me on my stomach, body slammed me, put me in submissive head locks, spread rumours about me, called me the n word like it was nothing, and done a lot of other shady things behind close doors that I don’t know even since he had his group of friends supporting him.
He had my number back in high school and I have been receiving the same messages looking for the same "Karl" and "Kyle" every single month from 2016-2019. It was in 2019 where I received an apology from him (his 5th apology) about what he did to me in high school and said he already knows I hate my guts but wishes me the best. The messages stopped (but I changed my number the same year and deleted all my social media accounts). The bullies name Is Liam.
He has caused a lot of internal issues I still face every day of my life but now I realize he was still harassing me after high school because he didn’t have the chance to lay hands on me again because we never saw each other after grad.
I decided to check on Liam’s socials just to see and he’s deleted his instagram where he use to post pics of vacations with his girlfriend, videos of him shoulder pressing 90 lbs dumbbells on each arm and other ego filtered content. He only has Facebook and runs a business with a guy who he grew up with. This Liam kid graduated with marketing in 2023.
What do I do? For reference, I never received support throughout the bullying, I was isolated and further mocked. One of the reasons I have no friends

2024.05.16 04:58 ThrowRArentaballoon He pushed me away for no reason, even though I didn’t do anything. WHY? 29 F 26 M

Im pissed off, and very hurt right now. My guy friend, whom I care very much about, has shut me out and pushed me away for a second time. While I wasn’t perfect, I did my best to be there for him. To be kind to him, and eventually we naturally fell into a thing for a few months.
The part that really fucking hurts is I never pushed for a relationship. I’m able to like someone, and not do anything about it. He however, kept having to justify why he didn’t want a relationship to me. And it hurt, each time. Especially because I didn’t do anything
I don’t get why he did this, and why he kept pushing me away, when I only ever tried to be his friend.
TL;DR guy friend kept pushing me away even though I never did anything

2024.05.16 04:57 Harboring_Darkness I'm hesitant about purchasing another Sanrio Build-A-Bear due to space on my shelf/insufficient amount of currency

Hi, I've been a bear builder since 2001 since I've received a Chococat Build-A-Bear during 2011 in July when I was still nine at the time.
His name is Coco and he is one of my Build-A-Bear's affiliated with Sanrio besides a snow owl bear I've gotten a year prior that back then I usually don't purchase any clothes due to the price range steeping pretty high especially if your bear is through a specific brand collab.
I just have one shelf in my room, a white five story shelf, mostly a standard bookshelf that I've been organizing my books by genre but as for Coco, well he's at the top of course but he's next to an incomplete line of books.
I'm hesitant about buying more than one since Kuromi and My Melody have been released by the company and they have been on my radar for a bit mainly due to my connection with my best friend whom despite being my polar opposite, we still make it work but having each other although I am aware of the pricing of Build-A-Bear plushes if you buy one from the Sanrio collection ($36 each btw)
Besides that, I'm unemployed and whatever is on my card that's it and I'm trying to manage my money wisely like buying what I need out of differentiating my wants from my needs and that's a financial lesson I still have to go by.
Any suggestions?

2024.05.16 04:55 AntEasy7172 How to ACTUALLY win in the social life? This has been my biggest insecurity.

The "cool" kids from highschool - are still the cool kids now. Idk why I tried to cope by saying "serious nahi hai rn, so karma will get them in their career".
Even in college, they're quite chill, they have a lot of friends, girlfriends and I don't think they'll personally ever feel lonely.
And I probably had this insecurity ever since my JEE/NEET journey - due to compulsory and intentional isolation from the world.
Before that? Life was good, 5 good male friends and I never felt lonely ever.
1) I didn't care what others thought of me 2) I didn't care how many instagram followers I had, and why it was bad compared to my other friends 3) I didn't care about this female bestfriend I had in childhood - and whether she got a newer boyfriend or not.
Life was GOOD.
Now, you know exactly what I feel (1,2,3)
And I had the funniest and the worst insecurities (Judge mat karna, par constructive advice dena)
Example - I literally felt insecure when my own child friend (she was a girl, and we're no longer interested to stay in touch) shared instagram stories with other men. And how she has 5x times my instagram followers, and her new bestfriend has 10x times mine. (I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THIS SHIT ABOUT THIS UNTIL I INSTALLED INSTAGRAM AFTER AGES) -
So you can understand that my mental health isn't the best right now.
I'll request you guys to give some positive feedback and advice to upskill myself socially when I start my college.
(Ridicule mat karna, there's no use. Let's help each other out)

2024.05.16 04:55 Own_Cause1681 I need help w a promposal!!

Hi!! So a little background story, I sadly didn’t get to go to my prom and my cousin knew I was sad about not being able to go so she asked me if I’d want to come to hers. prom is literally 2 weeks away and ofc we’re both gonna go despite there being no actual promposal but I wanted to do one cause I think it’s secretly really important to her (She’s mentioned it throughout the years). Shes coming over my house to go over things in 4 days so I was thinking I could set up my room to be one of those really excessive promposals but I know traditionally that happens at the house of the person being asked but I don’t have a way to do that in time. I also could simply do a poster board asking but I wanted to do something a little more special since she’s pretty much my best friend and i genuinely so deeply appreciate her bringing me along. So I was wondering if anyone had any ideas, the prom theme is tangled/ rapunzel so I could do something using that too! There’s so many options I’m having a hard time but I want it to be cool. Thank you to anyone that comments w ideas or advice :D

2024.05.16 04:54 Plane-Caramel-3717 I (M18) don't see a future with my girlfriend (F18), should we break up?

We met about 3 months ago, and started dating almost immedietly. We have no mutual friends, I have basically zero friends outside of online stuff and she is the same way. We have moved kind of quickly. Said I love you within the first few weeks, but haven't had sex yet. I'm a virgin and she isn't.
She invited me into a discord server with all her friends and all of them are weirdos. Spouting racial slurs, being edgelords, and one of them is like 22 years old.
I later learned that she and him met 5 years ago. She was 13 and he was 16. They fucking dated at one point. At one point he was 17 and she was 13. I could never imagine myself dating anyone even a year younger than me. Her best friend is a racist horrible person who's flirted with people when they were dating. She constantly says the n word despite being white as fuck and once said "I wonder how tight a newborn is". She has zero redeeming qualities and promotes cheating, dating people only for looks, and talks nonstop about dick size. My girlfriend is best friends with this scumbag???
About relationships, I've never been in a serious one. She's been in several. This is the first time she's ever actually loved someone she said.
I found out she was insanely sexual with her ex. Like, several times a day. I'm nervous to even do it once, and it's been months. She says she doesn't care and it's not that important but if it isn't why was it so important previously?
Now onto the other stuff. We don't really have anything in common. She only watches horror, I think the genre sucks ass. The only thing is dumb comedies with Adam Sandler and Seth Rogan and that's it. The only thing we like in common basically. She got bored when we tried to watch Star Wars, doesn't like any of the things I do like games or ANYTHING. I don't even know what we talk about. Basically nothing. I just try my hardest to be "entertaining" and we goof around and spend the rest of the time cuddling and stuff. I don't see us doing dumb fun stuff I would love to do, hanging out and doing stupid shit and talking about stuff like that. I know this all sounds very juvenile lol but having similar interests is important and I'm now realizing that.
She hates talking about her problems. She has eating issues and refuses to eat and I constantly stress about it. She just won't. I try to get her to and she won't. Some nights she'll be in a terrible mood and I can tell, but she just says she's fine. But I start to overthink it and assume the worst. She's always lying, I find out afterward. And I feel like shit she lied. And she just won't even try to talk about it. I don't blame her but it just doesn't work. Neither of us end up happy all night long.
And as for life? We both JUST graduated. She needs to move out of her parents house because of her horrible father and she's trying to figure out how to do that. We thought maybe she could move in with me, as I will be getting my own place (paid for by my grandparents) for college. It's not normal, but she has to get out asap and I think that can make an exception. After that? I don't know what I want to do in life. She wants to be an actress. She wants to move to another state and make a big name for herself. I just want to make ends meet and come home to someone I love.
I just don't see a future with her. Where we work. Where I'm happy. I've stopped talking to all of my friends to give her like all of my attention and it kind of sucks. I find myself enjoying talking to my friends more. We don't even call or text because we have nothing to talk about. I feel wrong saying I love you now. Feel wrong even typing it. It's not honest. We talked about it tonight and her responses only make me feel worse about it. She loves me a lot, she said I'm the love of her life, she said she kind of needs me and she has a history of self harm and suicide attempts. And I don't want her to do something. And I feel wrong leaving her. It feels so bad and wrong, all of it. I don't know what I should do.
hi dear reader, if you could please spare me a shilling of advice as for what to do
I don't know how to summarize this. You can't give an opinion with just a summary. I need some advice, maybe help from a third perspective please. I'll summarize it anyway so my post isn't deleted.
tl;dr: my girlfriend and I have nothing in common, her friends suck, we have different life goals, get into conflicts a lot recently, and now I need to make a decision before it's too late because we both graduated

2024.05.16 04:52 otaybee I feel like my (F23) relationship with my boyfriend (M25) is falling apart over house chores. How to decide how to move forward?

I (F23) have been dating my boyfriend (M25) for close to 3 years. I want to preface all this by saying that except the following problem, I truly love this man and he treats me well in every other aspect of our relationship. He’s empathetic, caring, and I do feel he loves me.
We moved in together a little under the 1 year mark. When we first moved in together, it was into my apartment, so he was always very careful and considerate about leaving things dirty or slacking on house chores, even though he was paying rent. I think he considered it “my space” so was cautious about letting himself go. A year and a half into our relationship, we moved into a house. I was very excited about this as it felt like we were starting to build something together. However, one of his childhood best friends (and previous roommate), let’s call him “Adam” was going through some apartment issues at the time and had to either find a place to stay ASAP or leave the state we were in. My boyfriend initially was against taking him in as he said Adam was irresponsible and erratic, but knowing he was his best friend I encouraged my boyfriend to let him stay with us for a few months, especially considering Adam was going through a rough breakup and other tumultuous life events. Well, that was a horrible decision. The next year Adam stayed with us till the lease was up. That house turned into me being the housekeeper because instead of my boyfriend having a good influence on Adam, it was the other way around. My every morning consisted of me picking up beer bottles and wiping down counters, clearing out the fridge of rotting fast food, etc. Now I will say to my boyfriends defense, 3 months into the new house I quit a very toxic job (which he had been encouraging me to for years) and struggled to find a equally paying job till the day we moved out. This meant that my boyfriend had to work 80 hour weeks to pick up my financial slack. Therefore, at that time, I didn’t mind doing the house chores because I understood I had more time and less stress on my hands than he did, and that was my way of showing appreciation.
Move on to now, my boyfriend and I moved into an apartment of our own. I got a job where I contribute equally to our finances, if not more so, but I still find myself doing 90% of the housework. And I say 90% because the 10% he does do only came after me being upset multiple times that I’m so overwhelmed having all the house work on my shoulders while also working a 60 hour job. It was one thing when I was working 30 hours, but to hold down a full time + job and still feel like I am the only one expected to do housework is exhausting. I’ve tried to express this to him, but it feels like he only does things for a few days and then “forgets”. Literally all I am asking him to do is not leave clothes on the floor, put them in the hamper, and I’ll do the laundry. Don’t leave dirty dishes lying around, put them in the dishwasher or sink and I’ll take care of them when I get home. If you’ve been working from home all day and I haven’t, ATLEAST make the bed.
I am the type of person who gets home after work and can’t relax until the house is clean, so all I ask is he makes that process easier for me by having me skip steps like collecting dirty dishes or clothes.
The reason this is turning to a head today is because: after weeks of expressing how neglected I feel when he doesn’t pick up after himself, knowing how stressed it makes me feel, the following happened:
He decided on a whim to buzz his hair at 10:00pm. I had work the next morning at 6AM. He asked me to help him buzz his hair and I said yes, but PLEASE, PLEASE clean the bathroom before you go to bed because hair gets everyyywhere. He said he will and don’t worry.
Next day I come home from working 7:30am - 7PM, and he has been home from work since 3pm. I arrive to dishes in the sink, bed is unmade. Whatever, I clean everything up and my only console in to take a long hot shower. I walk in the bathroom and there is hair everywhere. On the sink, the floor, the toilet, the towels. Imagine getting a haircut in a tiny bathroom and imagine the mess. So, I spent another hour cleaning it, because no way I’m taking a shower in that. He notices I’m cleaning it, sheepishly takes out the garbage (as though that makes up for it?) and never apologizes or mentions it all.
Am I crazy and being unfair? Is this reason to break off a relationship that is otherwise very happy? Someone please give me direction because I love this man, and I don’t know what to work through and what is a dealbreaker.

2024.05.16 04:51 MasterOfSpeed111 How should I (25M) tell my S/O (25F) that I previously went on dates with her friend/coworker?

Before I get started I wanted to say there was no cheating or emotional manipulation (I hope?) involved. I'm relatively new to dating casually as I had always imagined marrying the person I was dating and thought it would take 1, maybe 2 tries max. After a few bad relationships I realized maybe I wasn't ready to be in one and decided I'd focus on myself and maybe casually date at most (hookups, occasional romantic dates, etc.).
The girl in question (I'll call her Jen) that I was with for a short amount of time is a coworker to both me and my partner (I'll call her Lisa). We all work for the same company, but they are closer as friends because they work on the same team. I had spent time with Jen for about a month or two and thought I might have liked her despite a lot of differences in our interests and personalities. But she ended up turning down my suggestion of possibly being more than just friends, and I was okay with it because I was having fun being single anyways and we had continued being friends and I don't believe there was any awkwardness in our relationship moving forward and there hasn't been any lingering feelings for each other because it was so casual. Also, we never had sex, but we did kiss so I'm bringing this up for my question later.
At one point we had a group outing involving me, Jen, Lisa, and another friend. This created a friend group that I still occasionally hang out with and have done fun outings including some of my other friends, and this is how I started hanging out with Lisa. We had a shared interest event that I invited the group to individually and none of them could make it, but Lisa did end up saying yes to another unrelated outing and we really clicked. Lisa and I had begun hanging out around 2 months after Jen and I decided we would just remain friends. I started spending time with Lisa almost every day because she ended up having a ton of things in common with me to the point where we were basically the same person when we would share details of our lives. It took a couple months to realize we had differences, all this being a silly exaggerated joke to simply explain that this girl is my soulmate and I have been loving everything about her since dating her.
It's only been about 6 months but now things are getting more serious and us dating has been the best relationship I've ever been in, so I wanted to make sure I do things right and be completely open and honest with her. Honesty has never been an issue with me because I'm a very open book, but when it comes to my feelings I've had trouble being open in the past and don't want to make that mistake in my current relationship. I just wanted to know the best way to bring up the past fling with Jen to make sure I'm not lying to her by omission by not disclosing a past situationship(?) with her closest coworker friend. I hadn't thought it was worth bringing up because I hadn't previously thought about anybody my partners had been dating before me because it didn't seem relevant because she was happy with me and that's all that mattered. But another Reddit post made me wonder if this is something Lisa should be made aware of sooner rather than later, especially since she and Jen are pretty close.
So to recap: Jen and I had hung out casually for ~2 months. Near the end of this time, group chat is created including Jen, Lisa, and I. 1 month later Lisa and I start hanging out just us two. 1 month after that, we officially start dating. 6 months later, today happened.
So Reddit, am I overthinking this? Do I just let Lisa know that before we had started dating, Jen and I had hung out a couple times even if there was never any romantic feelings, or is there a more nuanced way to go about it because being too direct may come off as a bit too strong? Is this even worth bringing up? I'd like to know how maybe you'd like to be told this if you were in this situation. I appreciate the time it took for you to read this far and hope you're having a good day.

2024.05.16 04:51 mjewels1 I (20F), have a crush on my best friend (20M/Trans-F), but they like boys. What should I do?

I realized several years ago, in middle school, that I had a crush on my bestie. I don't know why, but it happened right when they said that they liked boys. I don't feel like I have any right to feel jealousy or anything like that, especially because who they like is well, who they like, and I shouldn't have any say in it, but I just.. Don't know.
My best friend is trans, and gay, which for the sake of my sanity while writing this, I'll call trans-gay, I suppose. He is one of the most kind-hearted individuals I could have ever met in my life. I have this funny little feeling whenever I talk to them. It's so nice to just be around them that I could just overheat and die.
However, when I first ever asked them about romance or anything related to it, they admitted that they liked boys. I couldn't have felt worse. I felt so jealous and weird like my feelings were just getting mushed and mixed. That's when I realized I liked them.
At this point in my life now, I realize that I should let it be, but I can't. I just love them. As a friend, as my bestie, as the one I have realized that I like. I can't face the reality that they'll just never like me. I can't deal with the feelings of jealousy I have, and I want advice on this. So to put it simply, does anyone know how I should go about these feelings?

2024.05.16 04:50 Top-Youth-2615 Best Dorm Building at UCSB?

A few days ago I posted about choosing between SB and UCLA, but last night I finally committed to Santa Barbara! Now, I’m trying to apply for housing, so I was wondering what dorm buildings yall think are the best, keeping in mind location (distance to beach/main campus/iv), dining halls nearby/quality of said dining halls, how nice the rooms/facilities are, and most importantly how fun the dorm building itself is. I’m trying to be super active with friends and stuff on my dorm floor.
Also, would you guys recommend doubles or triples, or suites if they’re worth it? I can’t find the rates for suites, nor where they are on the campus.
Thanks!

2024.05.16 04:48 BroWhatTheFreak My Girlfriend was Sexually Assaulted in her past. I need help.

I don’t wanna make this long but I think it’s better if I rant. I need help. My girlfriend was raped a long time ago, but she has never been the same. We kinda have a long distance relationship, if you could call it that, but we only live around 2 hours apart. I won’t explain how it all happened but I can explain that she has never been the same. She trusts me to an extent, to a really healthy extent. She trusted me with the information regarding her past and how it all went down. I love her so much, I really do. She is so beautiful and so pretty. She is so god damn sweet and all I’ve ever wanted was someone like her. I’ve never felt true love until I found her. She is the only person who makes me feel cared about. I had an ex before but she never cared about me, she cheated on me and treated me like garbage. She made me feel like I was garbage. On top of all that I never really received real love whether it was from my neighborhood, which I live in a pretty ghetto neighborhood, and I never received love from my family. Whatever I got from my abusive family, was the polar opposite of love. Abuse, trust issues, mental scars, physical scars, all of that stuff. So now you guys know why I never really knew what love was, until I found her. But this rant isn’t about me, it’s about my perfect, precious, gorgeous, and lovely girlfriend. The thing is, sometimes she feels so down about herself all the time. She feels like she doesn’t do enough for me sometimes. I tell her, she does, because she truly does. She doesn’t understand how much her love truly means to me. I would do anything, and I mean anything to get her love. Her love means so god damn much to me. But she always feels all over the place. Sometimes she feels so depressed that she lets everyone down. Sometimes she doesn’t wanna call, because she is either nervous, or doesn’t know why she can’t call. I tell her it’s always alright. I just want her to feel important and that everything she says, is always valid, and that whatever she does, I’ll always support it. Before I talk about all of her problems and issues that she has, I need to explain briefly about her past. Not only was she sexually assaulted, the thing about it, was that it was her close childhood family friend who did that to her, in fact he was a bit older and he was one of her brothers friends as well. I won’t go in too much depth of it, but she felt so nervous and shaken up. He made her act like everything was normal and she would break down every time she was alone. My poor baby had to go through so much. Prior to all of that, her father had died few years back. She was always constantly depressed. She felt like she let her father down when she was assaulted. I know she still feels like that. After all of that, she always felt so depressed and suicidal, I’ve seen the scars she brought up onto herself and the scars that her assaulter gave her. He was always yelling at her and was pretty abusive. So ever since that happened she felt so useless. She had tried many times to burn herself with a lighter and tried slitting herself with a knife. Even after all that she is still standing. My baby is so strong, and I just want her to know that. She says she trusts me more than she trusts any man alive. I love her so much. Sometimes she feels so sad and she feels like she can’t do nothing for me, when she doesn’t know that she has done more than what I could’ve ever asked for. I love her and I need her to know that she is perfect and that her past doesn’t define her. I just love her so god damn much. I want her to feel important and that she deserves the universe, because she really does. I want her to be comfortable around me and trust me. I want her to feel safe and secure around me. I want her to always rant to me about every single little thing. I want her to come to me whenever she feels down. I just want her and only her. I want all of her love. Her love is so precious. If anyone saw her I swear everyone would swoon over her. She is so gorgeous and so pretty and so cute, I can’t ever imagine why someone would abuse her prettiness and her love and her trust. I need her to be the best of herself, I’d love to see her like that. I know it takes time, all good things take time and I truly understand what she has gone through and how she can be helped. I just really wanna help her and fix her. We have so many plans for the future. She wants to get married and I do too. I can’t wait till I see her beauty walking in her beautiful dress down the aisle. I love her so much and I’m so obsessed, addicted, and mesmerized by her. She wants to have a family and have kids. She loves and cares about me so much which shows how much she trusts me. I love her and she got rid of my problems, so I really wanna truly do the same for her. She deserves the best and only the best. If only she knew how much her worth is in my eyes. I love her. I know all women always have problem, I’m not trying to be sexist or rude. But I know how the world works. I just want her to feel better around me, if anything. I love everything about her. I love her eyes, I love her body, every detail about her body is so sexy. I love her personality. I love how she cares so much about me. I love her touch and how she always makes me feel loved whenever I’m in her arms. I love the feelings she makes me feel. I love her and I just want the best for her. The best, and only the best. I wish I could explain and express my love for her, but I can’t because it’s indescribable. I Need all the help I can get so I can help her get better and feel better about herself. I’ll take any advice. I love her so much. Baby, if you ever find this, just know, I mean every single thing, and I love you so much. So so so much. And I’ll always be here for you and I’ll always pick you up when you’re down. I’ll always respect u and ur body. I’ll always love and care for you. I’ll always treat u the best and do the most for you. I love you baby. Don’t be sad and don’t feel bad. I’ll always love you.
ill take any help from anyone. Please I need help. I know we are just maturing as a couple, and I’ll always be patient with her. I promise her a lot. I promised her everything. I love her
Mods please don’t take this post down, please, I really really need help. I hope everyone can understand.

5 Types of Shower Wall Panels: How to Choose?
Undertaking a bathroom renovation is a substantial commitment, both in terms of time and resources. Selecting the ideal material for your new shower wall is a critical decision that requires a balanced consideration of both functional attributes and aesthetic appeal. This comprehensive guide will provide you with an in-depth analysis of five distinct types of shower wall panels, outlining their advantages and disadvantages, to assist you in making an informed choice tailored to your specific requirements.

What Features Do Shower Wall Panels Need to Have?

Before getting all starry-eyed about the colors and textures, you have to consider some practical aspects. Here are some of the key features that any decent shower wall material needs to offer.

https://preview.redd.it/qmrvtf8zap0d1.png?width=612&format=png&auto=webp&s=a6b822b2798962f3d91793b64d72b0789c33e438

Water Resistance

Ensuring water resistance in shower walls is crucial, not merely to prevent water splashes but to guarantee the material’s longevity and better durability. For perspective, well-sealed ceramic and porcelain tiles exhibit a water absorption rate of less than 0.5%, marking them as highly water-resistant. Conversely, materials like drywall can absorb water up to 10% of their weight, rendering them unsuitable for shower settings. Such high absorption can result in structural issues and mold proliferation, jeopardizing the wall’s structural integrity.

Mold and Mildew Resistance

Beyond aesthetics, mold issues and mildew present significant health risks. Research indicates that mold exposure can exacerbate respiratory conditions, particularly in asthma sufferers. Materials such as solid surface panels and acrylic inherently resist mold. Specifically, the non-porous nature of solid surface panels virtually eliminates mold growth opportunities, reducing mold presence by up to 99% relative to conventional materials.

Ease of Cleaning

Efficiency is paramount. On average, individuals allocate roughly 15 minutes weekly to shower cleaning. Materials like solid surface and acrylic can potentially halve this duration, courtesy of their smooth, non-porous attributes. In comparison, natural stone, due to its inherent porosity, demands more cleaning time, especially if not consistently sealed with a sealant. However, with diligent care and sealing, natural stone can offer enduring elegance and durability, lasting for a long time.

Durability

Optimizing the high durability of chosen materials is essential to ensure value for money. To illustrate, when adequately cared for, solid surface and porcelain tiles can endure for over 30 years. This lifespan surpasses many conventional materials by 50%, which may necessitate replacement or extensive upkeep within two decades.

What Types of Shower Wall Panels are Available on the Market?

Over the years, shower wall panels have evolved, presenting a diverse range of choices to meet individual preferences, requirements, and budgets. Traditionally, ceramic shower walls have been the go-to choice for many due to their timeless allure and low maintenance. Granite stands out for its inherent beauty and resilience, always maintaining its position as a preferred selection for those valuing both aesthetics and durability.
For those inclined towards high-end materials, natural stone walls—encompassing granite, marble, onyx, and travertine—offer an opulent, sophisticated touch to any bathroom. Recognized for their lasting lifespan, these exquisite materials are available in a variety of styles.
In recent times, the market has embraced novel materials. Acrylic panels, for instance, are steadily gaining popularity. Not only are they mold and mildew resistant, but they also simplify installation processes. Their diverse color and design spectrum offer a wide range of decorative possibilities. Solid surface panels, a newer addition, boast a sleek, uninterrupted appearance, which many homeowners find attractive. Notably durable and non-porous, they can adeptly replicate the look of natural substances.

Solid Surface Shower Wall Panels

In the realm of contemporary bathroom designs, solid surface shower wall panels stand as a beacon of luxury and practicality, invariably catching the attention of judicious homeowners. What exactly contributes to their remarkable qualities? Let’s explore.
Solid surface shower wall panels are the culmination of state-of-the-art technology intertwined with finesse and craftsmanship. These panels are meticulously fashioned using an exclusive blend of aluminum powder, sourced exclusively from a prestigious state-owned brand. This guarantees a composition boasting a pure 100% aluminum hydroxide foundation, completely devoid of any calcium powder inclusions. The distinct formulation of 15+25+75 fine powder facilitates the creation of high-density panels that exhibit a pore-free surface.
The resultant product is not merely a feast for the eyes but also provides a tactile experience that’s genuinely gratifying. A testament to its excellent engineering, the panels offer minimal water absorption, safeguarding against common bathroom problems such as stains and discoloration. The distinctive factor in these panels lies in the incorporation of high-grade resin, which plays a crucial role in determining the product’s longevity and aesthetics. Employing a lesser quality resin can precipitate yellowing over time; however, the utilization of Isophthalic resin in this context is noteworthy for its superior anti-yellowing prowess. This resin harbors a stable molecular structure, thereby promising a product that boasts a refined texture, augmented hardness, and unmatched resistance to yellowing and contamination, ensuring that the beauty of your shower space remains untarnished over time.

Waterproof

Water is a natural companion to showers, but without proper management, it can be detrimental to shower walls. Solid surface panels excel in this aspect. Their impermeable nature guarantees water resistance, safeguarding against potential damages and ensuring a long-lasting lifespan.

Easy to Maintain

Optimizing time is a priority in today’s fast-paced world, and solid surface panels offer a highly convenient solution for bathroom maintenance. Their sleek surface facilitates effortless cleaning, enabling you to maintain a pristine bathroom with minimal exertion over the years.

Stains and Discoloration Resistance

Bathrooms are susceptible to various staining agents, from hair dyes to diverse bathing products. Solid surface panels, composed of high-quality resin, are highly resistant to most stains. Their non-porous nature further minimizes the risk of discoloration, ensuring long-lasting aesthetic appeal.

Easily Customized

Solid surface panels offer a flexible foundation for homeowners to articulate their distinct design preferences. Whether your emphasis lies on a variety of colors, unique textures, or a particular design theme, these panels can be tailored to harmonize with your aesthetic vision, enhancing the visual appeal of your bathroom. Additionally, solid surface panels can mimic the appearance of natural materials, such as the patterns and colors of marble. This means you can achieve the luxurious look of marble easily.

Highly Durable

Given the infrequent yet substantial nature of bathroom renovations, durability is of utmost importance. Solid surface panels are constructed using premium materials, specifically designed to withstand high levels of moisture, mechanical impacts, and routine wear and tear. Solid surface panels, being highly durable, don’t warp or swell, ensuring that mold and mildew don’t find a conducive environment to grow. A highly durable surface will resist staining, scratching, and other routine damages that lesser materials might succumb to.

Anti-Mold

Mold is not only aesthetically unappealing but also poses potential health risks. The non-porous nature of solid surface panels serves as an effective barrier against mold proliferation, thereby promoting a healthier and cleaner bathroom environment for you and your family.

Antimicrobial

Beyond mold resistance, solid surface panels are engineered with the capability to resist a wide range of microbial agents. This intrinsic antimicrobial property further enhances the hygiene and safety of your shower area, reducing the likelihood of bacterial growth and subsequent

Acrylic Shower Wall Panels

Acrylic panels have garnered significant attention in the home improvement sector due to their combination of cost-effectiveness, longevity, and visual appeal. They are frequently utilized in bathroom upgrades. But what are their inherent characteristics and advantages?
Acrylic shower wall panels are fabricated from a heat-treated thermoplastic compound, resulting in a consistent sheet. These panels are recognized for their polished finish that not only elevates their visual appeal but also offers a mold and mildew-resistant surface. A notable feature of acrylic panels is their ability to mimic various materials. With a wide selection of different colors and patterns, they are a preferred choice for home interiors. For those seeking the aesthetics of natural stone or ceramic at a reduced cost, acrylic stands as an excellent alternative. Moreover, when using individual acrylic sections, a secure and watertight seam between panels can be achieved.

Lightweight and Easy to Install

Acrylic panels are notably light, making them ideal for DIY projects. Their installation is uncomplicated, eliminating the need for a professional team. This results in time and labor cost savings.

Easy to Clean

The sleek finish on acrylic panels is both aesthetic and functional. It prevents the adherence of water droplets and soap residues. Cleaning is effortless, only requiring a damp cloth without the need for strong chemicals or intensive scrubbing.

Affordable

Opting for acrylic panels provides a balance of style and utility without straining your budget. They represent excellent value, given their durability and low maintenance needs.

Waterproof

Acrylic panels inherently resist water due to their non-porous composition. They’re an optimal choice for moisture-prone areas like showers. Their design, having fewer seams than conventional tiles, minimizes the chances of leakage.

PVC Shower Wall Panels

Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) may initially seem complex by name, but within the realm of bathroom refurbishments, it represents economical and functional choices. Let’s delve into the details of PVC shower wall panels.
PVC shower wall panels, fabricated from a plastic-derived material, are both lightweight and cost-effective, catering to a broad spectrum of homeowners. Their diverse design and finish options facilitate various aesthetic goals, from contemporary to classic, without incurring the expenses of higher-end materials.

Lightweight

One of the standout features of PVC panels is their weight. Being incredibly lightweight, they’re easy to transport and handle, which is a boon for DIY projects. This lightness doesn’t compromise their strength, though. They’re sturdy enough to stand up to daily shower use.

Water Resistance

Ensuring water resistance is crucial for shower areas. PVC panels, with their non-porous properties, guarantee this protection. They prevent water penetration, safeguarding against potential damage. Their design suits wet environments, promoting durability and minimizing maintenance needs.

Low Maintenance

PVC panels cater to individuals preferring minimal upkeep. Their sleek design facilitates effortless cleaning of dirt and residues. Additionally, their resistance to mold and mildew ensures a hygienic bathroom ambiance.

Cost-Effective

Are you working within a budget? PVC panels present an optimal solution. As one of the most cost-effective materials available, they combine resilience and aesthetic appeal without straining your finances. They stand out as a top choice for those seeking quality and affordability.

Fiberglass Shower Wall Panels

Fiberglass, a material with a rich history, has become a favored selection for numerous homeowners, especially in the fabrication of shower wall panels. But what attributes contribute to its distinction?
Fiberglass shower wall panels are meticulously manufactured through a process of intertwining delicate glass fibers to form a textile-like base, subsequently reinforced with a resin compound. This technique yields a product that combines lightness with robust strength. Furthermore, these panels frequently feature a gel-coat surface layer, optimizing the texture and augmenting its resistance to water penetration.

Lightweight But Strong

The beauty of fiberglass lies in its paradoxical nature. It’s incredibly lightweight, making it easy to handle and install. Yet, its strength is commendable. This balance ensures that homeowners don’t have to compromise on durability when opting for easier installation.

Stains Resistance

Nobody likes a stained shower wall. Fiberglass panels, with their gel-coat surface, resist most common bathroom stains. Whether it’s soap scum or hard water marks, a simple wipe is often enough to keep the panels looking pristine.

Easy to Install

For those who love a good DIY project, fiberglass panels are a dream. Their lightweight nature combined with their flexibility ensures that installation is straightforward. No need for specialized tools or professional help, making them a cost-effective choice.

Tile Shower Wall Panels

Tiles have long been a foundational element in bathrooms. Their adaptability and visual appeal have endeared them to homeowners for generations. However, when discussing tile shower wall panels, we are highlighting a contemporary adaptation of this timeless choice.
Tile shower wall panels are large, unified panels designed to emulate the appearance of individual tiles. These panels capture the beauty of traditional tiles without the complexities of individual tile placement, grouting, and associated drawbacks. Constructed from materials like porcelain and ceramic, these panels deliver a cohesive appearance while preserving the allure of conventional tiles. Furthermore, they serve as an excellent substitute for glass tiles on shower floors, especially in homes with children or seniors, due to their enhanced grip and minimized slip risk.

Highly Customizable

One of the standout features of tile panels is their customizability. They come in a plethora of designs, colors, and textures. Whether you’re aiming for a contemporary look or a vintage vibe, there’s a tile panel out there that fits the bill. This flexibility ensures that homeowners can achieve their desired bathroom aesthetic with ease.

Higher Cost

Quality often comes at a price. Tile shower wall panels, given their aesthetic appeal and durability, tend to be pricier than some other options like PVC or acrylic. However, many homeowners find the cost justified, given the longevity and upscale look they offer.

Require Regular Cleaning

While tile shower wall panels eliminate the hassle of grout lines, they still require regular cleaning to maintain their shine. Water spots, soap scum, and other bathroom residues can dull their appearance over time. Regular cleaning ensures they remain the centerpiece of your bathroom.

Comparison of 5 Types of Shower Wall Panels

Choosing the right shower wall panel can be a daunting task given the plethora of options available. To make your decision easier, here’s a comparison of the five types we’ve discussed:

Features/Aspects Solid Surface Acrylic PVC Fiberglass Tile Panels

Aesthetic Appeal High; mimics natural materials and offers a seamless look Moderate; glossy finish and smooth surface Moderate; can look more plastic-like Moderate; smooth surface with a glossy finish Very high; offers a classic and timeless look

Why Solid Surface Panels Stand Out?

Among the variety of shower wall panel options, solid surface panels are often identified as the best option for a wide array of homeowners. These panels come in multiple finishes, including both glossy and matte, to accommodate a range of aesthetic tastes. Importantly, the matte finish not only provides a sophisticated look but also offers scratch resistance, thereby enhancing the long-term durability and appearance of the wall.
Solid surface panels offer a superior combination of durability, visual appeal, and ease of maintenance, making them an exceptional selection. Crafted from high-grade resin, these panels are designed for long-lasting performance. Their customizable features enable homeowners to create a distinctive aesthetic that complements the existing plumbing fixtures, thus enhancing the overall visual coherence of the bathroom.
Moreover, these panels facilitate a seamless integration with plumbing fixtures, simplifying the installation process without sacrificing the bathroom’s stylish ambiance. Their inherent resistance to mold, mildew, and stains further solidifies their standing as a leading option in the market.
Considering their water-resistant, mold-resistant and antimicrobial properties, solid surface panels are often deemed the benchmark for shower wall materials. The added benefit of scratch resistance, especially in the matte finish options, provides homeowners with assurance that their investment will withstand daily wear and tear, maintaining a contemporary and clean appearance for years to come.

KKR: Elevate Your Business with Solid Surface Shower Wall Panels

In the realm of bathroom renovations, a product that synergizes aesthetics, resilience, and innovation is imperative. Enter KKR’s superior solid surface shower wall panels. These panels, formulated with a distinct composition of 100% aluminum hydroxide and high-performance Isophthalic resin, stand unparalleled in their category.
Now, to delve into specifics: Traditional materials such as ceramic or acrylic present porosity levels between 1% to 5%. This makes them vulnerable to moisture retention and, in turn, mold proliferation. In contrast, KKR’s solid surface panels maintain an almost negligible porosity, adeptly addressing such issues.
Low-maintenance shower wall is crucial, and in this domain, efficiency equates to savings. The impervious character of these panels slashes cleaning durations by up to 70% in comparison to counterparts like natural stone or tiles, which demand consistent sealing and grout upkeep. This efficiency not only denotes long-term fiscal benefits for your clientele but also amplifies customer contentment and allegiance.
Furthermore, the adaptability offered by KKR’s panels is transformative.

2024.05.16 04:47 liquidjetfuel My (26F) boyfriend (26M) lied to me for 6 years about a sensitive issue. How can I move past this?

For starters, my apologies for any spelling or grammar mistakes, I'm on mobile. And as to the nature of the lie, I cannot/will not disclose sensitive information due to the nature and context. This to add to the fact that my partner does browse this sub.
We have been dating for 6 plus years, and living together for over 2 years. Met in Highschool and starting dating a year into college. He has been my best friend since even before dating, and I wholeheartedly believe he is a wonderful person.
However, this is not to say our relationship has been easy. We've gone through some of the most challenging milestones and periods of growth. We've talked about marriage, but this is something that he insists l'm being inpatient for.
Throughout our years together, l've noticed some things here and there. I knew in my heart the answer, but it all came out when I just sat him down and straight up asked him.
Years ago, when we first started dating, he told me a lie. A few days ago, l'd let my thoughts of insecurity get the better of my nervousness and mustered up the courage to ask him again. It took him about an hour to tell me, but eventually he was honest. Now, it has completely wrecked me emotionally and I don't know how to move on.
How do I stop feeling so betrayed? How can I grow with him when such a serious secret has been kept? feel like our relationship meant nothing, and that he probably never trusted me. He told me that unless I asked him as I did, he never would have confessed. I feel hopeless. I feel like this kind of secret keeping means our relationship isn't as strong as I thought. I don't know how to move on or even if I should. Would it be wise to think about ending the relationship or am I being too sensitive?

2024.05.16 04:46 ungabungameat I still feel guilty about cutting off my best friend, even if I felt like they deserved it

I don’t know if a flair is needed as it’s not that graphic, but it is sexual in nature. So I’ll just get started say this is about a ex-friend I’ve cut contact with for almost a year now, way back last December. I still feel guilt about it, even if I feel it was deserved. On the day of our high school graduation, after we walked out of school the friend group decided to simultaneously cut contact with Robbie (not real name). A few were hesitant, including me, but eventually we all decided it was for the better.
I was the closest to Robbie, I considered him one of my best friends, actually THE best friend. We were friends for 8 years, all of the good and bad I experienced in the extreme by being close to Robbie. I decided as the person closest to Robbie, I would give him a final goodbye before everyone blocked him. Some message about how I hoped the best for him, how it was great being his friend but the bad outweighed the good.
So what did Robbie do to gain the ire of the whole friend group and such a ruthless systematic cut off? Years and years of sexual harassment and insensitivity. I had so many good moments with him, I truly genuinely loved our friendship and it’s all tainted by his behaviour. Not just towards me but towards our friend group up. Inappropriate creepy touches, way too close in the thighs, ass feels, grabbing my wrist to rub it against his chest as I scream stop, forceful kisses (that I thankfully stopped) etc.
In the first years of friendship I found this funny (oh pubescent naive me), but getting older it turned uncomfortable. Now, don’t get me wrong, I made sexual jokes all the time. But Robbie was well…Robbie. It’s funny now thinking about it, maybe we should’ve done it sooner but now I’m kinda blaming myself since it seems I enabled him. I had countless talks with Robbie, about how I didn’t like his sexual touches, nor kisses or anything like that. I didn’t see him that way, I literally couldn’t (I’m aroace, he was the first person I revealed this to). He often dismissed this—mockingly it wasn’t real, I never could tell if he was joking or being ignorant on purpose as he is queer himself. He always chalked up his physical touches and his demands for it back as his ‘love language’.
I wanted to be a good friend, so I agreed reluctantly, even if I didn’t want to, even if I told him how uncomfortable it made me. He’d vent to me about his problems, asking for help and advice, I gave them-he didn’t listen and then vent to me about the same problems. I listened until I dreaded calls with him, until I said I don’t like calls can we just text? Because I knew he didn’t like to rant on text. Sometimes it felt like he was asking more than I could give, he’d make remarks about how his love life was so shit he was so depressed only if he could date someone (with a very obvious tone) or that we’d look so good together. I knew he liked me, he confessed multiple times even though he knew I was aroace, our then mutual friends told me multiple times Robbie said he liked me. I shot him down every time, and when I did he played it off as if it was a joke.
Anyways, this is just a fraction of the things he’s done. I don’t know if I experienced the worst of it all considering most people recognised his behaviour towards me-he had a lot of connections outside our friend group. Still, even though he made me uncomfortable, cross my boundaries and invalidate my identity I still feel guilty. That maybe it was too harsh, that we should’ve given him another chance.
But then I remember how many times I had to talk to him, how I had to make him admit he was wrong and then how he’d do it all over again. I’ll think back to that copy pasted apology he sent to everyone that I had heard over and over again. I’ll think back to the nights I dreaded calls, and how I had force myself to weakly laugh because he tired to guilt trip our friend ship forever about how he’d kill himself.
I still feel guilty, but I never want see him again, even if he becomes a better person, I hope our paths never cross again for good.

2024.05.16 04:45 Fuzzy_Meringue_3300 Can I finish my last year of high school if my family moved away?

I’m 17 (f), 18 in June. My dad got a new job that’s a 16 hour drive from where I currently live (the US). But I really don’t want to leave, I know most people wouldn’t but I want to at least spend the summer with my friends, but my family is leaving June 13.
My mother is extremely emotionally abusive and has been my entire life. To sum it up, she has influenced panic attacks on me on multiple occasions, only to belittle me and scold me for it (new flash that makes it worse). I also have major depressive disorder, and my therapist has advised me to stay with a friend over the summer bc it would really help my mental health to get away from her. My dad is even on board with it, but my mom is keeping her title as helicopter parent and is not allowing me to stay even for a week.
My girlfriend (17F) has offered to let me stay with her and her family over summer, and I practically live with them anyway.
Should be allowed to stay? And if so, how can I take advantage of being 18 to let me stay? Ive been recommended emancipation by a few people and trusted adults, but I don’t think that’s the right move. I resent my mother for traumatizing me but I don’t want to appear in front of her in court. In a perfect world they would divorce, but that’s not the case.
I have a great support system and the best friends I could ask for. I even scored a payed internship with the head of the mycology department at my local state university, which my mother did not care about and will not let me stay the summer for it. I’m at a loss of what to do and I really need help soon on how to convince her. I had her meet my girlfriend’s parents and spend time with them. I have stayed out of trouble and kept my grades up. I have been helping her pack the house.
I just wanna to spend some time with my friends before i leave. They are the only thing in my life keeping me going, i love them so much. And my girlfriend is perfect and I can’t leave her. We were gonna go to the same state school for college and we had everything planned before the move was abruptly placed on us in Feb. I don’t have the time to spend with my friends because it’s my junior year and i have been working so hard nonstop.
My friends parents said they would do whatever they can to help, and also support me wanting to stay the summer. It hurts to see all these parents agree with me when my own mother wont listen to me. Please I’ll take any advice.

2024.05.16 04:44 Plane-Caramel-3717 I (M18) don't see a future with my girlfriend (F18), should we break up?

We met about 3 months ago, and started dating almost immedietly. We have no mutual friends, I have basically zero friends outside of online stuff and she is the same way. We have moved kind of quickly. Said I love you within the first few weeks, but haven't had sex yet. I'm a virgin and she isn't.
She invited me into a discord server with all her friends and all of them are weirdos. Spouting racial slurs, being edgelords, and one of them is like 22 years old.
I later learned that she and him met 5 years ago. She was 13 and he was 16. They fucking dated at one point. At one point he was 17 and she was 13. I could never imagine myself dating anyone even a year younger than me. Her best friend is a racist horrible person who's flirted with people when they were dating. She constantly says the n word despite being white as fuck and once said "I wonder how tight a newborn is". She has zero redeeming qualities and promotes cheating, dating people only for looks, and talks nonstop about dick size. My girlfriend is best friends with this scumbag???
About relationships, I've never been in a serious one. She's been in several. This is the first time she's ever actually loved someone she said.
I found out she was insanely sexual with her ex. Like, several times a day. I'm nervous to even do it once, and it's been months. She says she doesn't care and it's not that important but if it isn't why was it so important previously?
Now onto the other stuff. We don't really have anything in common. She only watches horror, I think the genre sucks ass. The only thing is dumb comedies with Adam Sandler and Seth Rogan and that's it. The only thing we like in common basically. She got bored when we tried to watch Star Wars, doesn't like any of the things I do like games or ANYTHING. I don't even know what we talk about. Basically nothing. I just try my hardest to be "entertaining" and we goof around and spend the rest of the time cuddling and stuff. I don't see us doing dumb fun stuff I would love to do, hanging out and doing stupid shit and talking about stuff like that. I know this all sounds very juvenile lol but having similar interests is important and I'm now realizing that.
She hates talking about her problems. She has eating issues and refuses to eat and I constantly stress about it. She just won't. I try to get her to and she won't. Some nights she'll be in a terrible mood and I can tell, but she just says she's fine. But I start to overthink it and assume the worst. She's always lying, I find out afterward. And I feel like shit she lied. And she just won't even try to talk about it. I don't blame her but it just doesn't work. Neither of us end up happy all night long.
And as for life? We both JUST graduated. She needs to move out of her parents house because of her horrible father and she's trying to figure out how to do that. We thought maybe she could move in with me, as I will be getting my own place (paid for by my grandparents) for college. It's not normal, but she has to get out asap and I think that can make an exception. After that? I don't know what I want to do in life. She wants to be an actress. She wants to move to another state and make a big name for herself. I just want to make ends meet and come home to someone I love.
I just don't see a future with her. Where we work. Where I'm happy. I've stopped talking to all of my friends to give her like all of my attention and it kind of sucks. I find myself enjoying talking to my friends more. We don't even call or text because we have nothing to talk about. I feel wrong saying I love you now. Feel wrong even typing it. It's not honest. We talked about it tonight and her responses only make me feel worse about it. She loves me a lot, she said I'm the love of her life, she said she kind of needs me and she has a history of self harm and suicide attempts. And I don't want her to do something. And I feel wrong leaving her. It feels so bad and wrong, all of it. I don't know what I should do.
hi dear reader, if you could please spare me a shilling of advice as for what to do
I don't know how to summarize this. You can't give an opinion with just a summary. I need some advice, maybe help from a third perspective please. I'll summarize it anyway so my post isn't deleted.
tl;dr: my girlfriend and I have nothing in common, her friends suck, we have different life goals, get into conflicts a lot recently, and now I need to make a decision before it's too late because we both graduated

2024.05.16 04:41 Michael_EF_ Amazon Image Tips and AI Tools

Alrighty, let's dive in and talk about something super important: your product's vibe on Amazon. It's kind of a big deal. It can either make folks click that "buy" button or leave your stuff gathering digital dust. So, here's some friendly advice from someone who's rooting for your success:
Image Quality Matters: First up, let's chat about how your product looks. Clarity and beauty are key. Opt for high-res pics, aiming for at least 1000 pixels on the longest side. This lets your potential customers zoom in for a closer look. JPEGs are cool, but PNGs are your BFF for keeping all the deets sharp.
Picture Perfect: Your images should be bright, clear, and oh-so-inviting. They need to show off your product honestly, but in its best light. Make it irresistible, you know?
Meet Your AI Sidekicks: Now, onto the cool tech stuff:
🔧 VіsualizerPro. This tool is like magic for creating lifelike 3D visuals of your products. If you don't have the actual product yet or if you wanna experiment with different looks and settings.
🔧 SceneGenie. Think of this as your digital stylist, setting your product in the perfect environments to get your customers' imaginations running wild.
📦Don't limit yourself to just Amazon. Pinterest is a goldmine for potential traffic. With these AI tools, you can whip up eye-catching images that'll drive more folks to your Amazon page. More pins mean more eyes on your stuff, which equals more visitors.
Head over to my LinkedIn page where I regularly share useful Amazon PPС strategies. Looking for the best Amazon PPС management? Then here you go.

2024.05.16 04:40 Pastological 37F looking for friend(s)

Hello! I am 37F looking for a (best?) friend. I’ve tried this before and it went … surprisingly well? Except there were too many people and I got overwhelmed but I made 1.4 friends out of it, so I figured I’d try again, with better knowledge!
FIRST THING: No cis dudes. It’s not you, it’s me. It’s just not a thing I’m comfortable with. Sorry not sorry.
SECONDER THING: Friendship is hard! And requires work for both parties! Because we’re communicating via the internet and we can’t just count on the rhythms of third grade to force us to spend time together. I am willing to put in the work, but reciprocation and a willingness to communicate is not only key, it’s basically the whole point!
FOURTHLY, I am long-winded. This should be self-evident.
THIRDEST, I’m a little weird. I like that about me. I’ve had problems in the last where I people-please too hard and wind up not being able to be true friends because the other person has gotten to know/like the facade, and bringing out the real me is almost like disingenuous, at that point? So trying to not do that anymore! Not gonna dump all my weird on you at once, but best you know it’s in the forecast and can dress appropriately (ponchos recommended for the first three rows).
I recognize this probably doesn’t sound Totes McGoats for most! That’s OK, we can just be internet acquaintances where you smile awkwardly when we make eye contact in line at the coffee shop and I desperately fail to remember why your avatar looks so familiar.
But you’ve made it this far! So about me:
Interested? Hit me up on messages (not chat), though we’ll probably move it to Discord if we hit it off because all Reddit communication systems are terrible. And please bring more than “hey!”
