2024.05.16 14:26 Jarvis-Invest Understanding Stock Market Bubble

We all want access to easy money – not a good thing. But those who have made rapid gains would know that they can be intoxicating, especially in the world of Stock Market Investments. But sometimes, this excitement can lead us down a path of inflated expectations and ultimately, disappointment. This is the story of market bubbles – periods of irrational exuberance where asset prices soar to unsustainable levels, eventually bursting and leaving investors with significant losses. In this article, we will talk about them in great detail.
Blowing Up the Balloon: How Bubbles Form
The first thing we will understand is – how market bubbles are formed. Market bubbles can form in various asset classes, from stocks and real estate to cryptocurrency. Our focus in this section would be equity. Here is how it happens:
A Catalyst Emerges: A new technology, a strong economic performance, or simply an optimistic outlook can spark excitement in a particular market sector.
Prices Start Rising: Fueled by positive sentiment and media hype, investor demand for the asset class increases. This initial rise can be justified by genuine underlying fundamentals.
The Herd Mentality Takes Over: As prices continue to climb, investors jump on the bandwagon, fearing they’ll miss out (FOMO). This intensifies the price surge, often surpassing any reasonable valuation based on fundamentals.
Bubble Reaches Its Peak: At this point, speculation and frothy emotions replace sound investment analysis. Prices become detached from reality.
The Inevitable Pop: The bubble eventually bursts, triggered by an unforeseen event, a loss of investor confidence, or simply the realization that inflated prices cannot be sustained. Asset values plummet, and investors who entered late suffer significant losses.
The Aftermath: Picking Up the Pieces
The bursting of a bubble can have a ripple effect on the broader economy. Here are some potential consequences:
Real World Example: Equity Market Bubble
There have been many equity market bubbles in the past. We will not cover all but discuss the most classic example – The Dot-Com Bubble. The emergence of the Internet and the World Wide Web in the mid-1990s fueled a surge of optimism about Internet-based companies. Investors envisioned a future dominated by technology, leading to a surge in demand for stocks of companies with “.com” in their names, regardless of their actual profitability.
Fueled by media hype and the “get rich quick” mentality, stock prices of internet companies skyrocketed, often exceeding any realistic valuation based on their earnings or business models. Investors were more interested in the potential of the technology than the companies’ present performance. FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) gripped the market as investors piled into dot-com stocks, driving prices even higher. Investment banks readily provided Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) for even the most speculative internet ventures.
The bubble burst in the early 2000s, triggered by a combination of factors, including rising interest rates, a wave of profit warnings from overhyped companies, and investor skepticism.
Bubble or Bull Run? How to Spot the Signs
It’s not always easy to differentiate a genuine bull run from a bubble. However, some warning signs can help you stay cautious:
Investing Wisely: Avoiding the Bubble Trap
While bubbles can be tempting, here are some strategies to protect your investments:
Focus on Long-Term Value: Invest in assets with strong fundamentals and growth potential, not just chasing short-term trends.
Maintain Diversification: Spread your investments across different asset classes to mitigate risk. You can use the best stock market advisor to create a diversified portfolio.
Don’t Panic Sell: Market fluctuations are inevitable. Stick to your investment plan and avoid making impulsive decisions based on short-term volatility.
Do Your Research: Before investing, conduct thorough research and understand the underlying factors driving the market. If you are unable to do so, the next best thing you can do is use technology – Jarvis Invest.
Before you go
By understanding market bubbles and employing sound investment strategies, you can make informed decisions and navigate the ever-changing market landscape with greater confidence. Remember, slow and steady wins the investment race.

2024.05.16 14:25 Dreamtalehopesans advice for help with dealing with family

when i was younger my family was happy, i guess. I was adopted by my grandparents officially when i was younger and i had been living with them my entire life. I grew up with sensory disorder and ADHD. My real mother wasn't really in my life until about 4 years ago. I never knew my real dad and i have never met him but i always knew my real mom. She used to live with me and my grandparents who i call 'mom and dad' because they took care of me most of my life. She always lived outside in an apartment my dad made for her. She then moved away. She moved a lot and never was really in my life completely. By the time I was adopted by my grandparents she was legally my sibling. She always was having boyfriends and brought some of them over for family holidays. I was bullied growing up since I was in first grade for no reason i knew about. All i knew was i was the school freak. When i was little i hardly ate much as well but i was still called 'fat'. Whenever i sung i was laughed at. I was actually good at singing and i loved to sing when I was little as well as dance. My legally sister (aka real mother) tells me now and days i was the bully growing up and i was sexual as a little kid when i wasn't. growing up i also had anger issues and nobody knew why. My mom (aka grandmother who adopted me) told me it because i was mad at my sister. my mental health started going downhill quickly when i was about starting middle the next year. i was getting bullied a lot more and my 'friend' was mean to me for no reason at all.i was at a christian private school at that time. I got blamed for put stick notes on other sticky notes in a prize container when i didn't. i was friends with everyone in that class. only one of them believed me. but when the others were told that i didnt do it they were acting sorry. one my best friend's at that time little brother had a crush on me. when i went to her house to hang out her brother was acting like a perve a little bit and was asking sexual stuff.i never liked school at all because the city and town i lived in didnt do crap when i was bullied and the principles were told. And around this time my sister came to live in the town i live right now.she gotten married. But she was toxic to everyone. Her husband's friends lived with them as roommates and my sister was abusive to them. when she was babysitting me during that time she would stab one of them in the arm with a medicine syringe you take medicine from.this kept going till that roommate left and then the next one was gone. my sister's husband had passed away when i was in middle school starting the first year of it. my sister was then toxic to me a lot. and since she was my real mom at one point i called her 'mom' all the time till she was toxic to me.she also always told me she couldnt have children. apparently, there was another before me and it was a miscarriage. i will mention this, my sister is known in my family to be a liar about everything from getting gifts for us, receiving it, not stealing, and most of the time children. About every 2 years she claims to be 'pregnant' with a kid but apparently, they all end up dying after they are born or are miscarriages. i was the only kid she had ever.and plus she always blamed me for stealing her stuff even her gun and hiding it under my bed at my mom's when i cant even put a phone under there cause the bed is really low to the ground. now onto my dad (my grandpa who adopted me with my grandma).me and my dad were really close when i was growing up.i was his little princess. That stopped happening after i came out as bisexual and genderfluid 4 years ago. And let me tell you my dad was born in the 50's so he grew up being raciest and homophobic. I was the only child he raised as his own. my sister was his stepdaughter and during that time her real dad never let my dad adopt her as his own.i kept telling my dad about things i liked that we loved together growing up. my dad was toxic to me in my middle school years up until now. He would verbally abuse me and threaten me. he even hit me before in front of my mom and she told the police that he never did. The police were called a lot cause of my anger and yelling. The police where i live never believe the kids about anything saying they dont have any rights like to clothes, a bed, sometimes to speak, to things they buy with their own money, and one even told me i didn't have a right to my own body.i was being bullied every more in school so i was getting depressed and mentally unstable. And my dad was always getting up in my face and i pushed him back sometimes to make sure he didn't hurt me and he just told me i 'assaulted' him and he was going to get me put in jail for defending myself as well a lot of the time. I had been to a mental hospital where i live 8 times. Some of them because i was mentally unstable, and 2 because i was forced for no reason. For my 3 or 5 time there my dad took me to the hospital to get 'diagnosed' but he lied.i had just gotten out of another mental hospital 2 days before for being depressed and i was there for 2 weeks so i needed to get adjusted to being out of there.and when we were at the hospital the doctor came in after talking to my dad and told me 'your being sent to *name of mental hospital i was at 8 times* for sewerslidal (not gonna say the actual word) thoughts'. and i was confused at first and i told him i was having those thoughts at all. and then he told me i was being sent there anyways and then left the room. Then my dad came in and said this directly at me, 'this is what happens when you dont go to school'. i was shocked and upset about this.he lied to the doctor and i was sent to that mental hospital again for it.i never forgave him for that.i was also sent to a behavior facility twice before. one for anger and the other for SH. neither times did it work.i was an SHing person a lot so i had different ways to hide it. like hoodies, long sleeve tee shirts finally, longer shorts, gloves, and short sleeved shirts that covered my shoulders. right now im in high school and i guess my dad is trying to rekindle our relationship because he is that old already. He is nicer now but about 2 months ago he was a jerk. my mom didnt listen to my feelings during these times so i never talked to her about feelings but when she wanted to and i tried to tell her she always interuppeted me and never let me talk and told me to shut up. my sister had moved in my dad's house recently because she bought it because he retired. my dad is planning on moving to my mom's place with me.and now here is an old relationship i need to talk about badly because my sister says i agreed to most of it when i didnt. it was my last year of middle school when it happened. i was already at a different school. I was still bullied but i could handled it a bit better there. my first boyfriend broke up with me 2 months after we got together and i was in 7th grade at that point when we broke up.i had just moved to that school about 2 months before we started dating.the reason he broke up with me was because 'he didnt feel love'.love is an emotion. you cant just not feel it right.i was touch starved and loved starved during that time so the summer after the broke up i was really mentally unstable and SH.i was taken to the mental hospital again. And when i came back to school after 2 months of being in the behavior facility for the second time so it was novemeber of my last year of middle school.about the end of November i was dating my guy best friend at that time.i didnt except what would happen after.he neglected me a lot when we saw each other at school during lunch even if we sat next to each other, was toxic and mad at me where i cried during that and wanted to feel pain, never stood up for me, never cared about how i felt or when i SH but pretended he did, and lastly he was obsessed with me during this time.threatening to hurt people. The first time i went to his house he got really touchy and then the second time he took that one thing a girl will never get back in her life no matter what.i was really desperate for love during that time but i didnt want to do that..he convinced me though. And then at school during lunch in the cafeteria while we were sitting with our friends at lunch he would touch me badly and threaten to do it more if i didnt eat or would do it anyway.i didnt eat much back then cause i was trying to lose weight, was having an eating disorder where i got sick every time i even at at least 2/4 of my meal. I didnt tell anyone this until last summer.i was still with him at the beginning of summer till my current boyfriend started talking to me on roblox after years of not talking because he moved while i was in 4th grade.he was a good friend. my current boyfriend told me what my ex was doing wrong at that time so i did the right thing and broke up with my ex.but my ex did scare me badly. He threatened to kill someone for me. i was terrified at that. He also had a spilt personality he would talk to me with a lot of the time. Then after a month of me breaking up with him my current boyfriend and me got together. He was a little toxic at first but he got better and was really nice to me. but we are in a long distance relationship. We talk a lot on discord and do video calls when we can.i was at 2 different public school this year.neither of them cared about what was happening to me so i started online school.i didnt go to either of them cause i was still bullied i couldnt handle it.and then when i started online school the teachers for that school accused me of not doing my work when i did them days in advance.i was doing really good but if i got most of the questions right on the quiz i still failed it.i would get 90% out of the question right and still get an f on the quiz.i started failing those classes and i was stressed with the video meetings cause there would be one right after another.i didnt get to pick my electives at all because the day i got the papers to see which ones i wanted they already picked them for me.and my dad was being a jerk the entire time as well as my sister so i was getting to a point of relaspe but didnt. im still kinda on that point but not that much.i dont go to therapy or a medication doctor anymore because the medication doctor kept telling me to lose weight when i was trying to, told my parents to send me to a children's home because i was not going to school because of the bullying and my regular doctor i had been seeing since i was a baby said the same because i was 'fakeing' being sick.i wasnt sick though but i was having an eating disorder still during that time to the point i was throwing up everything in my body every time i ate more than 6 bites of food.even the foods that were easy to eat i couldnt eat.and the reason i dont go to therapy is because all the ones i went to as a kid fired us for no reason and then a family counselor did the same thing because i was being rude.i was rude at all but i was pissed during that time cause i never got to talk and tell my side of the story and my family kept saying that raising my voice volume just a small bit was yelling and they still say that and my sister does the same with the voice volume but they dont say she is yelling when she is.if you guys have any of advice to help with any of this thank you.i have been wanting to vent for a long time but i didnt have a way to until now.

2024.05.16 14:24 kickingasstakngnames How to stop the anxiety of feeling like I(31M) won't be able to find a woman like my ex(29F)?

Hi everyone.
My ex dumped me 17 days ago and moved on and started dating some other guy the next day. (We had 5 months of relationship and prior to that we were talking online for 3 months) When we sat for the last time and talked and I was giving her flowers, and begging her to give me another chance, she was cold like a different person and told me all my faults in relationship and told me that she was met with other guy previous day and was planning to see her the next day. My world got crushed and I kept begging for another chance explaining I would do anything she wants but it didnt work and I know that I looked unattractive at that point. That was our last meeting and she started dating the other guy next day and they are officially together.
She was the smartest, most honest, trustable girl I have ever dated and she was very beautiful and overall an amazing girl, she was caring for me a lot, almost obsessed, cooking for me, spending money for me, we had the most amazing intimacy that I ever had in my life and she was so content with that and complimenting all the time how we had harmony.
But my life and work was not stable. I moved to her country in January and I was figuring the things out. Our biggest problem was that due to her age she had a wish to marry (She had one marriage but didnt have a child) and to have a child in the future. I didnt want that and didnt lie about it or didnt manipulate her and we had problems and arguing about some topics with each other and we had both strong characters. I’m the reason for the breakup. Didn’t cheat or anything, I got into my comfort and was focused on my duties and didnt spend enough time with her and didnt support her enough. In the end when I figured the things out about my life and I was ready to be more with her at that time she found a better more compatible option for herself and left me.
I just can't stop thinking about her. I have a fear to not be able to find a woman who is that beautiful, with whom I will have that great intimacy, who will love me and care for me and so on. First week of breakup I was unable to eat or drink. Now I'm a bit better but I can't move on. She is literally living with someone else and I can't accept the fact that she moved that fast. I feel like I got betrayed. I keep blaming myself, thinking about all the mistakes I did during relationship, I could do more, I could be with her more and I could support her more, but It's too late now. I just can't accept the fact that I lost her. I'm all alone and I have no friends in her country, speaking with my friends sometimes and I had 2 sessions with my psychiatrist online. I have been watching redpill videos and I know I wasnt needy in the relationship, but when I felt that I was losing her that switched me to be clingy and needy guy in the end. It seems that I have oneitis for my ex and it is very difficult. But like I promised myself I didnt cheat on her and didn't lie. I only have 2 seconds of peace in the morning but rest of the day I feel miserable. I'm 182cm, athletic looking guy who worksout 4 times a week in the gym. I speak 3,5 languages. I'm a master graduate and financially not really bad although I wouldnt say that I'm great. I earn money through trading, stock market now since I'm in a new country. How to stop this anxiety, any recommendations?

2024.05.16 14:24 No-Tackle3746 I am [25F] and My fiancé [24M] of two years has cut off his family and won’t get his life on track. What do I do?

Hello, my fiancé is 24m and I am 25f. My fiancé and I have been engaged since March 2024. We have decided he would move in with me Since he lived next door to his parents.(his parents own that property and let him stay there) We made an agreement so we could start are marriage on a good path and not a stress about money.The agreement is he would have one year to pay all his debts and that he cleans the dishes and take out the trash. We agreed that he will pay for our groceries and dates in the meantime. After the year is up he would pay all the bills and then it would be my turn to pay all my debts off. I owe about 10,000 and he says he only owes about 5,000. When I asked him to write all his debts down so we can come up with a plan he only wrote his car note. I asked him did you pay your taxes and he said no. So I asked him so why didn’t he write that down and he said he didn’t think it was a debt. His parents and siblings have been calling him and he hasn’t been answering them. He says he done with them because of how they treat him. But they have been calling me and they told me that is phone bill is over due, he hasn’t paid his insurance for his car or car note for months and they are going to take him off and someone is coming to get the car. I also found out he hasn’t paid his taxes for this year and last year. And his family is pissed because he won’t tell them what’s going on. Weather it’s past issues with them or not I still think he should communicate with them because all his important tax documents and his mail is still going to his parents house. Now When I asked him about his debts to see if he is on track he gets mad or says we will talk about it later. He doesn’t clean the dishes or take out the trash for weeks and He will let it pile up and they would stink up the house. I end up doing it and he would say he was going to get that. When I meet him he didn’t have dental or vision insurance and I’ve had to do that for him. He has taken off of work a couple of times because he says lights sometimes effects his eyes and it hurts to see. I took him to the eye doctor and he said they only said he needs contacts. I don’t think he is telling me the truth. We will make appointments for the dentist and he will cancel them or make an excuse on why he couldn’t go. He is also an amateur boxer but he wont stay on the diet plan the coaches suggested. I make the meal prep and he chooses to still eat out because he says he doesn’t want to eat the same thing everyday. He is starving himself and not drinking enough water to lose 20 pounds before every fight and that is dangerous. I love him and he is a good man but I don’t want to be a parent (because thats what I feel like) to a grown man and cannot marry someone who doesn’t want to get their life together. What do I do?

Billionaire tech critic Frank McCourt says he is preparing a “people's bid” to buy and rebuild TikTok so users “own and control their identity and their data”
Billionaire tech critic Frank McCourt announces a bold move, preparing a 'people's bid' to acquire and revitalize TikTok, advocating for user ownership and control over their identity and data. Tech #TikTok #Privacy

Billionaire tech critic Frank McCourt says he is preparing a “people's bid” to buy and rebuild TikTok so users “own and control their identity and their data”
  • Frank McCourt, a billionaire tech critic and real estate giant, is planning to buy TikTok to create a "new and better version of the internet" that respects individual data ownership.
  • McCourt’s vision for TikTok includes transforming it into a platform where users can 'own and control their identity and their data,' addressing issues of data privacy and profit sharing.
  • Despite TikTok's connection of 170 million people promoting creativity, there is criticism over its data practices and lack of user compensation for the value they create.
  • The acquisition, anticipated to cost around $100 billion, seeks funding from 'values-aligned' sources, like foundations, endowments, and pension funds, in what McCourt calls the "people’s bid."
  • Competition for acquiring TikTok is intense, with interest from major US companies and figures, highlighting the app's significant advertising business and extensive user base.
Donald Trump’s 2020 attempt to force the sale of TikTok drew an eclectic mix of interest, highlighting the unpredictable nature of tech acquisitions. This included tech giants like Microsoft and a consortium consisting of Oracle and Walmart, with Microsoft's CEO later describing the process as “the strangest thing I’ve worked on.”
"TikTok presents the best and worst of the internet. It connects 170 million people and allows them to be creative and build things and enjoy things and do things," McCourt said. "On the other hand, they don’t get to really share in the value that’s created, and their data is scraped and stolen and shipped to China."
The estimated cost of acquiring TikTok, at around $100 billion, underscores the immense value and scale of the social media platform, showcasing the high stakes involved in the battle for control over our digital lives and data privacy.

2024.05.16 14:23 David_Coppinfeels Socialism would and will never work, thinking just basics...

I'm truly trying to learn, I swear I've seen hundreds of ways socialism is described.
When there is a bad case of socialism its not true socialism. I don't want to hear about sanctions on countries that are socialist because there's sanctions on every country free market or not, and they're doing just fine.
Also social programs do not equal socialism. I disagree with that argument, because there is plenty of free market societies that have social programs.
There is socialist ideas in most economies I do agree with that.
I just don't think it would ever work because human nature is to compete and strive for a better life. Seems to me in a socialist society there is no room to grow (I could be wrong, and I'm sure someone will say I am).
I'm confused with the whole taxing the rich or redistributing the wealth. That doesn't seem sustainable, you want a classless society, so once the rich folk are gone who are we going to tax?? What makes you think the rich and upper class won't just leave because you're taking away their income and ways to make money. I've seen the argument where we just tax the companies that make the most money, but wouldn't that just lead to the same thing where they no longer can really afford it? then it becomes a government ran business.
I've seen people bring up Sweden and the other Nordic countries, that's already been debunked, they're not socialist, and they tax their rich like maybe 5% more than the United States does.
Marxism made sense in the 1800s because of the working and living conditions then, but now it doesn't make sense we have fair living, and ways to build and work yourself out of poverty. I was in a trailer growing up and I became blue collar and worked my way out of it.
One more thing that might piss some people off, I'm sick of the rich college kids that are not paying for their schooling and that have never been apart of the working class (Blue and Pink Collar), let alone ever worked a job in their life, tell me what's best for me.
What is your definition of Socialism?

2024.05.16 14:22 Follosh16 My father died a year ago, and I never shed a tear. Help.

(Long post)
I created this reddit account to let this off my chest and I want to know if I'm okay.
I was born and raised for the first 6 years of my life with my parents, but me and my brothers moved to another country and my dad said that he will catch up to us and travel soon to live with us "soon"
Soon turned into 19 years... He never came to us, we kept on video-calling him, he kept sending us money (to me and my brothers and mother) my parents aren't separated, still married, but and I quote: "I have a business here, I cannot just leave everything and come to you"
He didn't have a secret life or anything we know him, we are Muslim and so was he, we don't do such stuff, he didn't cheat on my mom and he was working up to his eyeballs.
I loved him and we all loved him, my mother didn't love him as much because he preferred business over his family where he stayed in one country and we stayed in another...
He died due to heart related problems, doctors told him to do something and he did other things so it's like he wanted to die and he did, it was his own choice to ignore what the doctors advised him to do..
After he died I felt sad and heartbroken, but I did not shed a single tear, the only thing I was worried about is: who will send us money? I'm a student and I don't have a job...
A year later my family dog died, he was 15 years old and we grew up together... The messed up part is... I cried for 7 days, I would be in the shower, bed, standing, sitting.. I'd just punch the wall or my bed and just cry in anger because I couldn't do anything and I loved my dog, he was like my little brother...
I tried to show emotions, I tried to mourn him I tried and overthinking made me go nuts I don't know what is wrong with me... Why did the death of my pet best friend made me ooze up tears and the death of my father didn't hit me like it did with my pet? Am I sick? I was sad yes, but didn't I feel as devastated or depressed when I saw my dad's dead body on a video call, and whenever I thought of him..
I just wanted to let this off my chest and I want to talk to someone but I don't have anyone to talk to.. Thanks for reading

2024.05.16 14:22 AdTemporary4257 I Want To Reach Out To My Ex.. He Unblocked me.. Please Help Me

I really want to reach out to my ex again, because I noticed he unblocked me.
My ex boyfriend (LDR) of 1 year and 3 months broke up with me over text, because I was wanting to spend time with him over FaceTime since we haven’t bonded in a long time and he’s been ‘busy.’ He got angry at me for bringing it up because I knew he’d been busy, but I just felt neglected and felt like he wasn’t making any time for us anymore. So he broke up with me, said a lot of hurtful things like “I’d be happier if I didn’t talk to you, rather than being stressed. Now you know what makes me happy.” It broke my heart even more. I tried to call and text him, but he blocked me on our main source of communication. He said he would’ve blocked me sooner if it weren’t for the money he owes me… I helped him pay off his loan and so that he doesn’t need to take money out of his savings so he could save it for moving to my country in July so we could start out future together.
A week after he broke up with me, I messaged his phone number (I didn’t care about the international bills) and I was sent an ‘automatic’ message like in the photo. I noticed every time I sent a message, 15 minutes later the ‘automatic’ would send through. I even reached out via iMessage to his laptop to explain myself and how I’m willing to do the work and become a better person, move on from our bad memories and process my trauma so I could heal. He left me on read and delivered. And by trauma, I mean he almost left me several times whenever he got stressed or angry.
I deleted the messaging app because there was no point for it anymore… I tried to focus on myself during this time. 2.5 weeks later, I had a gut feeling about something… So I redownloaded the app, and I noticed that he unblocked me. I checked what it would be like to block/unblock someone on the app, and he had to manually unblock me and add me back as a friend… when you’re blocked you can’t see their profile/updates, but when you’re blocked you can see this message pop up, warning that you can’t immediately re-add them as a friend after unblocking.
And if you unblock them you have the choice to add them back as a friend again. I also deleted his contact off my phone, because the app automatically syncs your contacts.. so I redownloaded the app again and I was still added as his friend and can view everything on his profile. He still has his profile picture I took of him and didn’t remove his previous profile picture I took of him off his profile.
Maybe I’m thinking and doing too much but I don’t know why he’d unblock me like that without any reason… I tried to narrow the options down and it’s either - He misses me/is curious about me - Doesn’t care at all and moved on so he unblocked me - Unblocked me so he could message me about the money or whatever
I really want to reach out to him. I miss him so much, and I still love him. I just want him back, and I know I shouldn’t reach out to him because he’s the one who dumped me, and out of respect for myself too. I’m worried that if I reach out, he’d get angry at me and get stressed out by me again. I’m not sure what to do. I miss my boyfriend.. Despite the bad memories, we have a lot of good memories too.

  • He disappeared suddenly for 1-2 months without saying anything, he’d respond to my messages on and off again. I thought I did something wrong, because whenever we had a misunderstanding, he’d need a few days for some space… I tried to be patient, but I was worried he was leaving me. He did say some mean things to me, “why are you so obsessed?” When I’d try to call him to wake him up for work, as I would usually wake him up. Turns out, he was going through a hard time in his personal life and didn’t want to ‘burden’ me
  • When I visited his home country for a few weeks, we went to an amusement park and while waiting in line, he got angry and stressed because I talked to a lady who was the same ethnicity as me. It was one of those things like “oh you’re from this country? Me too?” Type conversations… He thought I wasn’t having a good time, so he was going to leave me in a hotel room… I begged him and went on my knees for him not to leave me… But then he said “You have no value to me.” Which made me stop… I’m not sure what happened (I forgot), but we were able to patch things up and enjoy the rest of my time in his country
I deleted the messaging app because there was no point for it anymore… I tried to focus on myself during this time. 2.5 weeks later, I had a gut feeling about something… So I redownloaded the app, and I noticed that he unblocked me.

2024.05.16 14:20 giugix She always has to be the victim

My ngrandmother is always the victim. It doesn’t matter what’s the situation, she’s always the victim and no one understands her.
When my father was in rehab and I couldn’t see him, she was the victim, she said it was my fault my father was using and to not upset him with my letter (a.k.a do not upset him telling him how she was abusing me).
When my grandfather died, my mother travelled to see me, but she has to take care of her. (Also, she did the wow it’s me scene she always does, fainting, loud crying, when she abused my grandfather until he died). I couldn’t process my grief as a 14 year old girl, I didn’t have no one looking out for me because everyone was looking out for her. She was practically useless afterwards, neglecting me to the point I ran away. She played the victim saying I was leaving her alone.
My father was not only an drug addict, but also he had HIV. I was there taking him out of the trap houses, motels, taking him to the hospitals, trying to get him to rehab. I did everything in my power to keep him alive. He passed away in front of me of a heart attack in the hospital after having a stroke. Where was my ngrandmother in all this? In her house doing absolutely nothing. I plan the funeral, cremations, everything with my money. She did not help, she repeated the same process as with my grandfather, fainted, cried and made everything about her. She also blamed me for his death. Everything is always about her. Now every time someone passes I try to be ok with it as fast as I can because in her words “I dont deserve to cry because I’m not as sad as her”. I’m not ok. My father passed away and I’m sad. He missed my wedding and I’m currently pregnant and he’s not here. I miss him terribly.
I wish and pray that I’ll be the parent I deserved to have for my kids. I hope I’m going to be a better parent figure that my ngrandmother. I’m NC with her but I hope she doesn’t come to the birth or anything because as always, she will make everything about her.

What is the most reasonable salary range for a first-time manager, specifically in a Finance Business Partner Manager role?
A total of 6 years work experience in Financial Planning & Analysis (3 years as staff, 3 years as officer).
I find it awkward being asked by a potential employer how much salary I'm expecting since it's a jump from officesupervisor to manager role.

2024.05.16 14:20 OrlonDogger A Witch at Midnight - Chapter 14

[First] [Previous] [Next]
I was at a disadvantage before, looking around in unknown territory, but here? This is my house. My country. My library! I have walked around these halls so many times that I have a pretty good mental map of where everything is. Considering the most requested academic tomes are under the protection of the Librarian, I go investigate the shelves on the first floor, where you find mostly reference books.

All this confidence I managed to build up disappears the instant I notice there’s a group of students in the lodges to the side of the hall, just minding their own business. My throat dries up, my knees shake a little bit.

Saints damn it, why aren’t you all on vacation!?

And they are sitting right on my way, between me and the shelves. I am sure the symbol has to be on the shelves…

Time to turn tail and run, like always.

You can do it. Take a deep breath, look straight onwards and walk!

Taking her advice, I do my best to not look at ANYTHING and just go straight as an ant to the shelves.

Wait. What if any of them say hi? Oh no. Uhm. Take a quick look! But make it super, super quick!

Damn it.

My eyes slowly turn to the left as I am walking. Are they looking at me? Did they look at me? WILL they look at me? They don’t seem to even notice me. Should I call for their attention? Should I say hi? I don’t even know them, that would be weird. But what if I do know them and I just don’t remember? There’s lots of law students around, maybe they are law students? I can’t see their books from this distance, maybe I need glasses. Would glasses make me look unassuming? I wish people didn’t look at me…

Eventually I reach the shelves without exchanging a single word with these people. I really, really hope I didn’t look like a nervous wreck while walking by, but I guess there isn’t much I can do about that now, can I? Ugh, I can barely focus as I start looking on the shelf itself, trying to find anything out of the ordinary…

You’re nervous when there’s a lot of people, and you’re nervous when there’s few people. What will it take for you to be happy about something, huh!? Tiresome bitch…

I sigh loudly. I left my S.O.S. at home, so I can’t really get rid of these voices tonight… I’ll have to brave them.

It will be a hard time… but you can do it.

Taking a deep breath, I continue trying to focus on finding that damn ‘golden symbol’ around the shelves, even taking out a few suspiciously out of place books, just to check if the symbol could be carved on the back of the shelf or something…

Nothing.

I spend a good long hour checking each shelf on the first floor as methodically as my body allows… before I know it, I have given up on everything and am sitting on a bean couch at the main hall, letting my eyes close slowly…

… When I open them again, I practically jump out of my chair.

Did I just fall asleep!?

Oh boy.

I pick up my phone to check… It's 2 in the morning.

Oh boy! Who could have guessed things would go wrong, huh?

I can still feel the sleepiness in my limbs, my eyelids feel so heavy. Saints, help your poor servant!

The lights feel so vibrant here, so annoying and white. I can practically hear them buzz… but then, I notice something else. The smell of decent coffee, recently brewed. I look around, quickly finding the librarian at her desk, serving cups of coffee to the group I saw… I think of going over and taking one but that would probably imply conversation. And I am not ready for conversation! I—

“Oi! You finally woke up!” The librarian catches me instantly with a knowing smirk. “Want a cuppa?”

I freeze. For a moment I think: ‘hey, let’s pretend I didn’t hear her!’, but I don’t have my headphones on and I made eye contact. I am trapped, TRAPPED.

“M-Mhm.” I manage to whimper, nodding my head quickly.

“Then come over, don’t be shy. We’re all night owls here.”

There is a sense of community there that’s quite alluring, but the curious looks of that group of students really feel like cold daggers on my chest. Still, I gather all my courage and robotically walk over to the group, taking a styrofoam cup, and then watching the woman fill it up slowly with coffee as black as my soul. Just like I like it… just with a hint of sugar, though.

“So you finally came around again. I was wondering what happened to you.” The old lady looked at me, knowingly.

“You… you recognize me?” I can’t help but feel a mixture of happiness and abject horror mounting on my back.

“My child, I recognize every single person who comes to my library! I know them all, believe it or not! Including these rascals over here.”

The others laughed. I just looked at my coffee while mixing a teaspoon of sugar in it. She’s probably joking, right? I mean… there’s no way she actually memorizes every visitor, right?

Maybe she’s a witch.

Knowing what I know now? I wouldn’t be surprised. I just take a sip of my coffee.

“You’re not here to study for the special tests, are you?” The lady again read me like a saints’ damned book. “You’re looking for something special.”

“It’s nothing that ominous.” I quickly cover. “I am just looking for a particular book, but I am not sure where I could find it in the library.”

“Why not ask for help? I am right here, precisely for that!” The Librarian puffed up her chest. “If I don’t get anything to do, I get bored.”

“Ah, well, you see…” I start getting nervous again. I can’t just tell her the truth! What if I slip and this woman turns out to be a cloak testing me? Or worse, a sleeper! I am quite sure the whole ‘Secret of magic’ is a very serious matter! I could get her and myself in a big pickle!

The woman seems to notice my distress… and instead of trying to reassure me, the damn crone just goes and says:

“Is it poooorn you’re after, boy?~”

Saints help me.

The others are laughing and looking at me all smiley, why!? Why must this lady put me in a situation like this!?

“T-There’s the internet for stuff like that!” I blurt without thinking. “I mean! Ah! Damn it!”

More laughs. At this point my face must be lighting up red and radiating hotter than active uranium.

“I. Can’t. It’s a symbol!”

“A symbol?” One of the other students tilted his head with curiosity. “What kind of symbol? Are we talking chemical or arcane?”

Nerd spotted. You’re among comrades here, breathe easy.

It’s hard to breathe easy when people are actively laughing at me, saints damn it!

“It… symbolizes gold.” I finally relented. “I am not sure which one of the many, many interpretations it could be. I thought of the alchemical symbol for gold, or a Sun, who knows…”

“That’s a little vague.” The student said, frowning a little bit and rubbing the back of his neck. “The symbol is in the book? Like, on the cover?”

What am I even supposed to answer to that!?

“I. Think?”

“Well.” The Librarian recovers the reigns of the conversation with a grin. “If that thing you are looking for isn’t here? It may be a literature tome. You know, on the second floor.”

“Y-Yeah…” I sigh. This whole conversation has just been so stressful.

“Well! It could be the Golden Ratio!” One of the girls says. “You know the Golden Ratio?”

“Isn’t that the whole shell inside a rectangle thing?” I blink.

“Yeah! They use the helenian letter ‘phi’ to represent it.”

The girl is nice enough to draw it for me…

Phi
I stare at the symbol on the paper for a moment. That’s… actually useful. And it does make sense! It could be this! Suddenly inspired, I stand right up and finish what’s left from my coffee in one gulp, not even caring that it burns my damn throat as I do so.

“Okay, this works. Thank you!” Without even feeling the anxiety attack me again, I bow my head and turn around to go right for the stairs!


When Tav had turned around and moved out, the Leader of the Coven looked at her young apprentice with a frown, shaking her finger slowly at the girl.

“You shouldn’t be so obvious with your hints, young girl.” The woman shook her head softly. “We could have had fun with her for at least another hour!”

“I didn’t feel like being cruel today.” The apprentice said with a sleepy grin, while some of the others ruffled her hair and called her a ‘softie’. “The Bastard needs a way to learn! And it would be sad to see the Overseer waiting for another night…”


I rush past the empty reception desk on the second floor, joging without even caring about the ‘No Running’ rule as I go head first into the wooden shelves of the literature section. And it doesn’t even take me that many attempts to finally see something: a symbol carved on the wooden side of one of the shelves.

Phi. Lower case. Small enough to not be disruptive, but big enough to be noticeable.

My eyes widen, and I immediately approach the symbol with awe invading my body. I don’t even dare to touch it at first, that’s how big my excitement is! Whatever does this mean!? Is this whole building the Elysium? Or just the second floor? Isn’t this place way too public for what they mean to do?

Finally giving up on trying to be cautious, I just touch the symbol. For a moment nothing happens, and I feel the panic starting to take over again.

Trust the process, maybe it takes a moment!

I keep my finger pressed on the carved symbol for a moment, taking slow, deep breaths as I try to keep myself from going into a saints damned anxiety attack. But then, something does happen. Octarine, that strange colour, starts filtering from my very veins and into the symbol, filling in the carving before flowing on the air like a river of vibrant purple-green. It advances in front of my eyes, dancing and spiraling before flowing deeper into the library.

“What…?”

What are you waiting for!?

Follow it!

I don’t have to tell myself twice! My legs don’t have the energy to keep running, but the colour is not flowing super fast, so I can just walk behind it until it reaches an empty wall on the deepest side of the second floor. I put my hand against it and push slightly, this time trying to cause the flow myself! My excitement knows no bounds when the colours flow from my forearm to my palm, and then spread on the wall like vines growing in all directions.

Idiot! What if someone can see you!?

Biting my lower lip, I quickly turn around. No one followed me, good! I can focus again on the wall, or in this case the lack of it: where there was a wall now there’s an entrance, a black hole just waiting for me to jump in. With a sigh, I decide to ignore my anxieties and just go into the darkness, being quickly surrounded by it as the wall quickly appears again behind me.

It takes a moment for my eyes to get used to the room, but when they do the way is clear: a spiral stairway going up.

“More stairs… why do people here love their stairs!?”

With a frustrated grumble, I take a step on the stairs, only for them to start moving on their own. Huh. Now that’s convenient! I just let them take me higher and higher, without even questioning how they move without mechanisms or electricity. Magic is just Like That™.

It doesn’t take long until the light hits me: a faint, gentle blue light, like a beautiful night sky. My observation proves right on the money, for what I find on top of the stairway is a tremendous planetarium: a dome of darkness with distant white lights showing the spectacle of the stars right above us.

There are some tables and chairs around, some bookshelves too… and sitting on one of them, was the specter of someone I know. The figure of a certain book vendor.

Miss Pelafina gently brushed some of her dyed black hair behind her ear to look at me with a mocking grin.

“Took you long enough, didn’t it? Kid.”

i’m planning to start looking at internships for next summer, and i want to start thinking abt what my prospects realistically are, cuz i figure having an internship specific to whatever i want to go into is better than just having a random one.

this is my first time posting on reddit, so i apologize if i'm doing this wrong-- i'm just not sure where to go.
me and my boyfriend have been together for over a year. he is two years older than me. i want to establish early on i know the age gap is a bit iffy (16 and 17 1/2). i consider myself to be decently emotionally mature, i always have enjoyed learning and understanding others. i'd say i'm a pretty decent student. he, on the other hand is more passion driven (he wants to start a business). he maintained a 2.7 ish gpa throughout highschool (he is graduating soon) and is planning on going to community college. i know it should be taken into perspective, but i really loved him and so i sort of trusted him and hoped for the best. however the entirety of our relationship he's always been really physical and it's to a point where we had kissed/made out two weeks in and were intimate three months in. if i'm being completely honest, i was not ready. it was at a friends' house, and i was nowhere near comfortable to do it. he kept on telling me, begging me sort of. prior to the day we did, he had been to my house and been asking me there as well. when i refused, he became distant. i cried that day. anyways, back to the day, he had continued asking me, saying our friends had left, and took out a condom. we ended up just doing it, and it was painful and he went fast and i felt so disgusting after. i faked an orgasm and then we stopped after like an hour or so. i was in pain and felt nauseous. he didn't offer any aftercare, and his friends came in. they took him outside where they 'dapped him up' and congratulated them. they then came in and started joking to me about the fact that i didn't make him finish. i felt terrible. he would hardly want to hangout with me unless we did stuff like that. i have never had an orgasm-- up to this point. i would fake them when it started to hurt. then, he started doing some really weird things. i would tell him to stop and he wouldn't, even telling me to shut up. it got to a point where one time he pushed me down and went for it when i was telling him not to. i was so upset and he apologized obviously but it happened again after. almost every time we have hung out till this date we've done it. and obviously, im a teenager sometimes i get the urge, yeah. but it feels disgusting, like its wrong. i know the best decision is probably for me to leave him, but i'm just so attached to him. it's my first relationship and i'm just really exhausted. he also refuses to emotionally connect to me and gets mad really easily. he calls me and yells and then lets me go to sleep crying. i just want advice, help, anything.
