2024.05.18 14:19 20_Pandagirl Am I being shallow?

Hi, I’m 31f working in a PSU in Delhi. I’ve started started talking someone via AM and we’re to meet in a few days too. He seems interested and is interesting too, funny and seems open to talk about anything & everything. My criteria was a well educated guy and he obviously fulfills that. Plus point is his parents seem nice & considerate too.
My issue : the guy won’t share his photos. I’ve seen one photo that was sent to me on WhatsApp with his resume and that’s it. He is not on social media, tried googling in general…found one photo that makes the photo that I’ve seem dated and it’s worrying me.
Now I’m confused whether I’m being too shallow because it’s so wrong to dislike someone for their appearance and yet I’m in a dilemma to the extent that I’m asking for advice.
I am pretty decent looking but not arrogant about my looks if that’s how it’s coming across but yeah.

2024.05.18 14:19 imspartacus147 Friends (F26 F26 M23 M29) have been excluding me (M29). What should I do?

First of all, I’m really sorry this post is so long, though I’d like to make sure everything is covered. I’m sorry that it’s probably not really exciting, but the issue has been causing me a massive amount of hurt, so any replies and advice would be immensely appreciated. I’ll try to give as much detail as I can. Obviously, you are only hearing this from my side, but I have been as honest as possible about the following, otherwise I don’t think any advice I receive would be helpful. This is written anonymously as well, so it’s not like the people involved are going to find-out. Nevertheless, none of the names I use in this are their real ones, just in case. If you have any questions or need further details on any part of this, please let me know.
I was good friends with a work colleague, I’ll call her Robin. We were (and still are) pastoral support staff in a large sixth form college. We’re part of quite a big team and each look after a caseload of students. Being about the same age, me and this colleague naturally spent time together on breaks at work, which usually involved going out for walks or just chatting in our office, which we shared with three other members of staff, all older women. I got on well with everyone in the team, but just wasn’t as close friends with them. Me and Robin chatted a lot and joked both in person and by messages on Whatsapp. I felt comfortable sharing lots of personal things with her, such as my poor mental health and at points I was worried I’d scare her off with how much I had said, but it never did. She opened up a bit about her own mental health as well, though now I realise to nowhere near the same extent. Looking back, she was not as comfortable sharing personal details as she was with her other friends. I’m not sure why I didn’t notice this at the time, was I too self-centred, or just subconsciously focusing only on the things she did tell me?
When Robin was struggling or upset, I always made an effort to go and help or comfort her. At one time she wrote on our office’s group Whatsapp chat that she had gone to our college’s wellbeing room as she was really upset. I immediately dropped what I was doing and headed over to sit with her. Of course, I checked if she wanted me there, but she was happy that she had some company. It’s easy for me to say this as I’m writing now, but at this point I had no actual romantic feelings for her, she was just a mate. She referred to me in messages as ‘mate’ a few times, so it was clear she wasn’t interested in anything other than friendship, which was absolutely fair enough.
This went on for most of the year and at the start of the next academic year, we were in different offices. Our workplace moves the team round every year for various reasons including to get us to build better working relationships with other members of the team. My new office had two people besides myself, one an older woman and the other a new colleague, who I’ll call Sam, also about my age, who had moved departments in the college and was just starting out in our role. She had been placed in my office so that we could support her in getting used to the job.
Robin and Sam already knew each other as before Robin started the pastoral role, she worked in Sam’s department. Robin warned me to “watch my back” with Sam. Robin was never specific with what happened, just that Sam had been a bully towards her. As Robin was my friend, I took her word for it.
A while later, I was called into my manager’s office and asked if Sam was always working on what she should have been. I told her that as far as I knew she was, though I never really looked too much at what she was working on as I was busy with my own stuff. I knew that in fact, Sam was working when she could on her assignments for the part-time degree she was completing. I didn’t want to throw her under the bus for this, though. We all have times where we aren’t completely focused on our work when we should be. Robin told me afterwards it was her who had reported Sam for doing her degree work. She apologised for not giving me a heads-up before I was called into the meeting with my manager.
Sam had a discussion with one of the assistant principals where she was told off. As Robin was my mate, I promised her that I wouldn’t tell Sam or anyone else at all that she had made the report. This was tricky as our other colleagues were commenting things like “who would do that to a colleague? We’re supposed to be a team”. Robin even told me at one point afterwards that she felt like a “bitch” for doing it. I told her then that she did the right thing and that I understood her frustration at another team member not working when she worked so hard herself. Looking back, this was an awful thing for me to do and I feel really bad about it.
After a while of working in the office with Sam, I got to know her. She wasn’t anything like Robin had told me. In fact, she was an absolutely lovely person, kind, funny and although she had a reputation for being the loud, chatty and boisterous one in the group, this was a bit of a façade and she actually had some real confidence issues, as well as some mental health issues, though she never said exactly what. I slowly began to regret taking Robin’s word about Sam and for not judging her by my own experiences. Me and Sam became quite close friends. I feel it’s important to note that Sam was married and was not at all my type for a romantic partner, but we became good friends. Perhaps surprisingly, Robin and Sam became very close friends at the same time. I felt comfortable sharing some quite personal things with Sam, including some issues I was having with my mental health.
As I was single, Sam made it her mission to get me a girlfriend, which I was a bit reluctant towards at first and not convinced anything would actually succeed. Sam was very interested in gossip and good at getting secrets out of people, so she eventually found out that I had developed feelings for Robin. My feelings had appeared at some point early in the academic year that I moved into the office with Sam. I knew that me and Robin would never work. Though we were good friends, we were too different. I was perfectly happy being just mates, but the feelings were still there. Very much a heart versus head situation.
Me and a few colleagues went on a night out to a few bars and a nightclub. We all got drunk and at one point in the evening I took Robin aside and told her that I liked her. I know it’s easy to blame the alcohol but I don’t think I would have said it otherwise. I knew we would never work, so what was the point in risking damaging our friendship? I didn’t remember her reaction at the time due to the alcohol.
The next day, I really regretted my decision to tell her this. For the next few days, I was really awkward around her. I tried to subtly ask if she remembered me saying anything to her that night, but she said she didn’t. I also tried asking another one of our work friends, Bethany, as well as Sam, both of whom were on the night out. I was good friends with Bethany and had been open to her about my feelings for Robin. Sam said that Robin really couldn’t remember much, as she was so drunk at the time. Bethany, however, said that Robin had told her that she thought I had “told me he liked me”, but that she wasn’t certain due to being drunk and having a patchy memory of the evening. During this conversation with Bethany, she advised I come clean as it was the right thing to do. I agreed and the same evening I wrote a message saying that I had said those things and that although I didn’t expect anything to happen as a result, I would understand if she wanted to distance from me. Robin replied after about half an hour, which I can tell you felt like an eternity.
The response was lovely, thanking me for my honesty and saying that she would never want to distance from me. “First of all, there is absolutely nothing to be sorry for. You didn’t upset me or offend me in any way. I honestly couldn’t remember if something was actually said or not. Secondly, I know that you’re such a kind and genuine person that I would never think you’re friends with me because you were simply trying to get into a relationship with me. I value you so much. This doesn’t make me annoyed in anyway at all. You haven’t damaged our friendship at all”. I replied “Thank you for that. You are really too kind-hearted for your own good”. She replied with “No need to say thank you. Thank you for telling me the truth and being honest. I really appreciate it. I would never want to distance from you”.
This made me feel much better. A few days later at the weekend we had arranged to go out as a group with colleagues. Me and another colleague, Carl, were the only two guys going and he ended up dropping out last minute. I got a Whatsapp message from Robin apologising and asking if it was okay for me to not go as well, as it was originally meant to be a girly night out anyway before inviting me and Carl. I told her that was absolutely fine with that and that there was no need to apologise and that I hoped they enjoy the evening. I was fine with this at the time, though there was naturally the worry that I was being uninvited due to Robin now knowing I had feeling for her.
However, when I told some of my non-work friends that I had been asked not to go, they immediately thought this was absolutely horrible of them towards me, regardless of if I was the only guy going with the group. I’ve told a few more people about this (as well as that I had admitted my feelings to Robin) since then and everyone has had the same reaction. At first, I tried defending my colleagues (as I genuinely would have preferred not to not go at the time), but I came to consider that my friends were right and this wasn’t an acceptable way to treat a mate. As I’m writing this, I still don’t know how I feel about what they did. Was I just blind to it due to my feelings for Robin and preferred to only see the good things in her? Was I just deluded in the belief that my friends would never do something horrible towards me?
The weeks and months after that, I gradually came to feel as though I was being left out of the group of my work friends. It is important to note here that at some point during this time, Robin got a new boyfriend, Jack. Of course, this was absolutely fine and really gave me a good amount of closure on the situation and any feelings I had remaining for Robin. I understand that some of Robin’s avoidance of me may have been to protect me from being upset by this, though it really was not necessary.
There were lots of things that happened to cause me to feel excluded in these months, of which the following are a few examples. I would see Robin, Sam and Carl often go out for walks during their lunch breaks, without inviting me. On one occasion they invited me out with them after I saw them leaving, but this felt like they were only doing it because I had seen them. They would have messaged me or stopped by my office to see if I was free if they actually desired me to be there. Another time, I was asked when I was free during the school holidays and after I answered, the group specifically arranged a meet-up time that I couldn’t make. On another occasion, I was very excited to go to a musicals-themed quiz night hosted at our college, as I love musicals. I said I would be interested in going, if others in our group were, but no-one said they did. However, Robin told me the next day that they did go, but it was last minute so they didn’t have time to ask me. They could have sent a message or came to my office, so I don’t understand how this was a problem.
Whenever I asked to go on walks with people or arrange things outside of work, either in-person or on our Whatsapp group, my colleagues never seemed to be available. What I noticed when other colleagues asked the same things, was that people were either more available, or if they weren’t available, they would suggest another time. They didn’t do this when I asked. I eventually gave up asking. It was pretty humiliating to be repeatedly turned down on a groups chat.
The college held an event one evening, which involved a meal at the site. My colleagues were going, so I decided to go along as well. I had been the previous year to the event and had really enjoyed it. However, this one ended up really upsetting me. Before the meal, there was a talk in our lecture hall. I was the first of my colleagues to enter and saved them a row of seats towards the back of the room (near the entrance). However, all seven of my colleagues who were there walked straight past me. If it was one or two it might be possible that they just didn’t see me, but all seven of them? I highly doubt it. For the meal, I was the first of the group to arrive again to the room, so claimed a table. When the others arrived, they all sat on the table next to mine. They said to pull our two tables together so I could sit with them, which we did, but the seven of them crowded onto their own table, whilst I was sat on my own. The colleague sitting closest to my table also fully turned their back to me, so it felt as though they were excluding me and making it difficult for me to engage in conversations. Throughout the evening, I tried to chat with each of my colleagues, but every time was either met with a one-word answer, or a quick acknowledgement, then they would move on to speak with someone else on the table. It felt like they asked to pull the two tables together so it looked like they were making an effort, but everything else indicated they wanted nothing to do with me. Carl was the only one who actually engaged me in a conversation, as we waited in the line for food, though it was just me and him at this point (the others had got their food already and were back at the table).
There was the occasional time where I was invited to something, but with the feeling of being avoided on the vast majority of occasions, it very much felt like it was just out of pity or an excuse to say that the group made an effort to include me. One time, we went out for coffee after work. I was invited by Sam, but when I turned up, Robin and Carl both seemed very surprised to see me there. On another occasion, we went out for food. On this event, it was very clear that Robin had feelings for Carl. She was quite ‘touchy-feely’ with him and was taking selfies with him, but no-one else. I wasn’t the only one of us to notice. In Sam’s words, she was “all over him” and she actually had to tell Robin to back away from Carl a bit, as Carl was already in a long-term relationship. Was this actually just Robin sending a message to me that she wasn’t interested in me? Or I am just being too self-centred there? It was certainly very hard and quite upsetting for me to sit there with them, bearing in mind I still had feelings for Robin at this point.
The difficulties with all these is that, on their own, each one of the examples of being left out can just be explained as bad luck, bad timing, or a one-off. However, the fact that these things kept happening led me to believe that the group were actively excluding me. This went on for a few months. This led to my self-esteem and mental wellbeing being completely wrecked. I thought I was a terrible person, a waste of space, a creep and that people would be better-off without me. I won’t go into details but I got to a really low point. I ended up speaking with my GP, going onto anti-depression medication and attending counselling sessions. I know I should have communicated with my colleagues earlier, but could never bring myself to. I have severe social anxiety and do whatever I can to avoid conflict, even if that means suffering myself.
Eventually I couldn’t take it anymore. Not being able to focus on anything but the worry and the almost physical pain of the anxiety, every single day, was horrible. On the advice of another work colleague and a friend, both of whom I had been very open with, I decided to speak to Robin. I asked if we could have a quick chat alone and she said that was absolutely fine. I saw her at the end of one of her lessons. It was really tricky at first, I could feel my hands shaking with the nerves. I told her that I didn’t mean to sound accusing, even though it would probably sound like that and that whatever was said, I wouldn’t get upset and didn’t intend for her to be upset, all I was seeking with honesty and clarification. I bluntly asked if the group were avoiding me. Perhaps being naïve, I honestly expected her to be surprised and say she wasn’t aware of how they had been acting towards me and the impact it was having. However, she told me that they were avoiding me.
She went on to say that when they were about to go on a walk on a lunch break a while ago, Robin had asked Sam and Carl if they should ask if I would like to go, but Sam had said “would Jack not be uncomfortable with that?”. After that, they made a point of purposely not inviting me on walks. Robin also said that she was close with Sam and Carl and they sometimes discussed things like their partners, which she thought might upset me. I reassured her that it wouldn’t, but I told Robin that these reasons were all absolutely fine and that I completely understood and thanked her for her honesty. She said that she had intended to tell me sooner, but hadn’t got round to it (yeah right, a whole year and not finding the opportunity?). I didn’t say it at the time, but I would have really appreciated if they had just told me, instead of letting me think I was an awful person and that they hated me. I’m sure anyone would feel like that if their friends started excluding them.
As we left the room, Robin said that she would like to start using the college gym and I said that I use it after work that day. She said she’d really like to join me, which made me happy and feel as though she would like to perhaps make it up to me a bit by spending time with me to show she was comfortable around me. After I met with Robin, she messaged me thanking me for my honestly and I replied thanking her for her honesty as well. Unfortunately, later in the day Robin asked to speak with me on my own. She said she had told Jack that she was going to the gym with me that evening and he was really uncomfortable with it and asked her not to go. I said that I understood and that it was absolutely fine. I asked if she had told Jack about me and that I had had feelings for her in the past, but she said she hadn’t. She said she wasn’t sure if she would tell him. I told her that I wouldn’t say anything for or against doing this as it wasn’t my decision to make, it was their relationship and that shouldn’t be influenced by what I say, though I said that it was important that you are honest with and trust each other in a relationship. She asked if I would still come to badminton with the group on Monday (which we planned for the first time that week, it wasn’t a regular thing) I did go to it and found that it was quite fun, though I was wary the whole time of the others and how they were acting towards me, so could never truly relax. It seemed as though nothing was out of the ordinary and we got on fine.
The next day, we got a message on our group Whatsapp chat from David (another colleague) saying he was going to the gym that night if anyone would like to join him. Immediately, Robin said she would come and Sam as well. I was absolutely heartbroken by this. Even though David was in a relationship and Sam was coming as well, there was either no consideration of how I would feel seeing this, or it was even possible (though I honestly don’t think likely) that it was intentional in order to make me feel excluded again. Why was Robin fine with going with Dan, but not me? Why was Jack comfortable with Dan and not me? People can still have affairs in relationships, so I don’t understand why David was safe for Robin to be around but not me. Though Sam was there as well, she only stayed for about ten minutes when we played badminton together, so was unlikely to stay long. I felt that, despite what was said to me by Robin, they still hated me and regarded me as a creep.
This, for me, was the final straw. Taken with the fact that I had it now confirmed that the group were actively avoiding me by speaking to Robin, I decided that I needed a clean break from the group. I had been thinking of doing this for months, but hadn’t seriously considered doing it until now. For once I was going to put my own wellbeing and mental health first. I decided that I shouldn’t care what the others thought of me. So, I left the Whatsapp group. I waited until the Friday of that week after work, so that people wouldn’t immediately come and speak to me, when I really didn’t want to see anyone.
I didn’t block individual people, but I received no contact afterwards. As of writing this (just over two weeks after leaving the Whatsapp group), they’ve left me alone. Hopefully they got the message that I was not interested in the group, or perhaps they were relieved that I had removed myself, rather than them having to keep secretly excluding me. Maybe they thought I just needed space. Maybe they just didn’t care. Sometimes the trash takes itself out. Like trash is completely how they’ve made me feel and to be fair, they’re probably right. I’m fine with whatever. I worried about being confronted by them, either by message or in person, as I wasn’t sure what I would say. Would I just be blunt and perhaps upset them by telling them how I really felt? Or would it be best just to say I didn’t want to talk anymore? I’m still not sure what the best response would be if it came to that. Anyway, as of writing this now, none of them have spoken to me. I’m absolutely fine with that. I’ve felt a lot better, though I still wonder if I do need to speak with them to get full closure, but I think I’m happy where I am now. Perhaps some time will help.
The only contact I’ve had has been a brief chat with Carl. It was a fairly normal chat about films we had seen recently, but I told him that I had left the group (I believe only group admins get notified if a member leaves). I said that I had no hard feeling towards him and that I’m still happy to speak to him and the others and say hi when I see them around, I just didn’t want to hang out with them anymore. He said there were no hard feelings from his side either and that I would be welcome to join the Whatsapp group again if when I was ready. He said that he has left groups in the past that were not right for him, so he understood. I’m honestly not sure what to think about Carl. He’s always been very friendly with me, but on the other hand has still gone along with the others in excluding me, without saying anything.
I was done with being a friend just when it was convenient to them. People don’t just exclude people for no reason. Even without any other information or things that have happened before, or to protect me from getting upset at Robin having a boyfriend, to purposely exclude someone you claim is your friend, without telling them, is a vile and horrible thing to do. I just wish they had been honest with me so that I knew what I could repair or change about myself that made me so unlikeable to them. It’s clear that the level of friendship I held the others in the group in was not the same as they held mine in. Even when taking into account that I may be overthinking things, my friends shouldn’t be making me feel the way I did. Likewise, they shouldn’t be ignorant to how their friend may feel because of what they say or do. Friendships work both ways and I feel this wasn’t happening here. I don’t feel comfortable trusting any of them again, because I think I’ll just get hurt again. I’ve opened-up about a lot of personal things with them in the past and honestly I really regret it now.
I’m so done with putting in all the effort to be friends with them, support them when they needed it, when it all feels one-sided. I am done being made to feel like I’m hated and that I’m a creep and that I’m just an expendable person. Even if it wasn’t intentional, there was no consideration to how their actions would impact me. I know I’m not the main character in other peoples’ lives. People all have their own personal things that they are dealing with and carrying around on a daily basis. However, I believe that you should at the very least think how what you do might upset people if they are truly your friends.
There seems to be some double standards going on here as well. Why was it okay for Robin to spend lots of time alone with Carl, even though she was single, clearly had romantic feelings for him and that he had a partner, but I wasn’t allowed to do the same as it would make Jack uncomfortable? I think there some insecurity in the relationship between him and Robin, but I understand that can be completely normal in the early stages of a relationship. It just saddens me that I am not seen as trustworthy enough to be alone with Robin, even though, as of writing this, Robin says that Jack still isn’t aware of my past feelings for Robin. Those feeling were long since gone before I knew for certain that I was being excluded. Perhaps I should not have trusted Robin after how she treated Sam, but is now best friends with her.
Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. Am I just being pathetic and am actually in the wrong here? What do I do now? Do I do anything at all?

2024.05.18 14:18 Savings_Ad_2297 39/M I am the droid you’re looking for if you’re looking for an awesome new best friend!

Hey all! This is a bit weird for me being almost 40 and looking for friends. But here I am anyways lol. Mainly looking for someone to message throughout the day and get to know. Maybe game with if we have that in common. I do work from home so there’s no one to really talk to during the day.
I’m married and have 2 kids, a 6 month old son and a 9 year old daughter. I’m into basic nerdy things. Gaming, star wars, super heroes, DnD, anything Disney, etc. Also trading card games like Disney Lorcana and Star Wars Unlimited.
I watch a ton of Critical Role stuff especially Campaign 3! Currently on episode 74, so if you watch too, let me know! Also like to watch Battle of the Brands on YouTube.
I’m also into movies and tv, some sports, pro wrestling. Collecting action figures and retro games is one of hobbies as well. Anything 80s/90s nostalgia i absolutely love so if you want to talk childhood and growing up back then, i’m down! I miss the good old days where we went to arcades and italian sunday dinners at the grandparents and where the world just wasn’t as nutso as it is today lol.
My kids are everything to me and I do love talking about them. Love being silly with them and spending time with them (when they aren’t driving me crazy 🤪 lol)..I would prefer you be around my age and have kids as well just so we have that stuff in common off the bat! I’m socially awkward most times but very easy to get along with. I’m definitely considered an introvert. But once you get to know me I break out of that awkward shell. I do like to use sarcasm, and mostly like to try and make people laugh because a world without laughter would just be horrible.
Alright i’ll shut up now but I’d like to think i’m an awesome person to get to know and hopefully there’s more you’d like to know so feel free to DM me! (I looove using GIFs so if you message me, open up with a funny one! Especially since then i’ll know you actually read this 😂)

2024.05.18 14:18 br_alm Problem with GeForce Now in desktop mode

I prefer to run keyboard and mouse games on desktop mode. As you know, GeForce Now runs on a full screen Chrome window. The problem I’m having is that when I press certain keys on my keyboard, such as the space bar or WASD, the KDE bottom panel shows up on screen, and I have to Alt-Tab back into the game for the panel to go away. This happens in every game I’ve tested on GeForce Now, including Baldur’s Gate 3 and Half Life 2. Does anyone have a solution? This doesn’t seem happen when running GeForce Now in Game Mode.

Anything 80s/90s nostalgia i absolutely love so if you want to talk childhood and growing up back then, i’m down!

My kids are everything to me and I do love talking about them.

I’m socially awkward most times but very easy to get along with. I’m definitely considered an introvert. But once you get to know me I break out of that awkward shell. I do like to use sarcasm, and mostly like to try and make people laugh because a world without laughter would just be horrible.
Alright i’ll shut up now but I’d like to think i’m an awesome person to get to know and hopefully there’s more you’d like to know so feel free to DM me! (I looove using GIFs so if you message me, open up with a funny one! Especially since then i’ll know you actually read this 😂)

2024.05.18 14:15 dumpsterturtle Oops

Had a woman with her 2 kids come up to the register the other day and she wanted to buy a shirt that was from a 2 piece set, but we couldn't find the other shirt to go with it so I just told her we couldn't sell it due to policy.. well as soon as I said that and started walking away with the shirt her daughter (about 8-9?) absolutely lost it. Face went red, started screaming and crying. I just looked at the mom and apologized, tried to apologize to the little girl but she just started shooting me death glares.
But honestly I'm kind of glad I couldn't sell it to her because something tells me that little girl doesn't get told no a lot because she was definitely too big to throw a tantrum over a t shirt that wasn't very age appropriate either.

2024.05.18 14:14 Savings_Ad_2297 39/M I am the droid you’re looking for if you are looking for a new best friend!

Hey all! This is a bit weird for me being almost 40 and looking for friends. But here I am anyways lol. Mainly looking for someone to message throughout the day and get to know. Maybe game with if we have that in common. I do work from home so there’s no one to really talk to during the day.
I’m married and have 2 kids, a 6 month old son and a 9 year old daughter. I’m into basic nerdy things. Gaming, star wars, super heroes, DnD, anything Disney, etc. Also trading card games like Disney Lorcana and Star Wars Unlimited.

2024.05.18 14:13 ShortEchidna9836 Recommendations for a dinner spot where we can wear silly shirts.

Recommendations for a dinner spot where we can wear silly shirts.
My friends and I are coming to AP for the second time in a few weeks. We are a very casual and laid back group but we love a silly theme. I wanted to make us all put on dresses and suits and go out for a fancy dinner at The Black Swan, but I quickly realized that Hawaiian shirts is a better fit. Any suggestions in where to make a dinner reservation for 5 people in cliche vacation attire on a Saturday night? We have one person with a complete dairy allergy and the rest of us are iffy on dairy but it’s doable. I’m hoping to snag a table at Laylow for post dinner drinks since we couldn’t get in last year. We tried Asbury Ale House, so we are looking for something completely different vibes-wise. Thanks!

2024.05.18 14:12 Mumford_and_Dragons Companies like 'Asket' and 'SANVT' that offer 'Short, Medium, Long' length options?? (EU brands PLEASE)

I'm curious to comprise a list of EU companies like Asket and SANVT that offers 'short, medium, long' length options for their T's, Tops, Shirts etc etc. I have Asket's T's that fit nice. SANVT wasnt quite there, and more pricey, but still want to know about more! I'm for the 'short' lengths, hence the curiousity as most/all high-street tops will need hemming (which I dont mind for the odd OXBD).
I dont want your "Ash and Erie's, Under 5'10, Peter Mannings" that are US based and have crazy shipping/tax costs etc.
Just EU.
Thanks.

2024.05.18 14:12 subuso Germans, please teach me the social cues of your people

I’m a funny guy who has been and lived abroad several times. I’ve been in Germany for nine months and I’m flabbergasted by how difficult it is to interact with the locals.
For starters, why don’t people naturally talk to each other? Where I’ve been it’s so common for people to interact at supermarkets, parks or just out on the street.
Everyone seems so grumpy and uninterested to me. I try throwing jokes, they never work. I try flirting, hardly ever works because everyone just wants everything very directly. Also, I noticed that people here become the complete opposite when they’re drunk and/or high, which really saddens me.
I basically want to know how to properly approach people here and how to flirt. Please teach me

2024.05.18 14:12 Character-Race3414 fillers are the best

I grew up watching naruto and i haven’t rlly watched it in soo long but lately i’ve been rewatching it and i realized how much i love filler episodes.It genuinely pisses me off when people complain about filler episodes and that naruto contains too many but i think that’s what makes it a good anime those episodes are light hearted and are so funny to watch.I love seeing random characters going on missions together or just hanging out, For examples in original naruto the filler episode where ino and naruto go on a mission together, such a random duo that i loved. Also the episodes where might guy and kakashi would compete against each other. This also goes to any other anime including one piece, when i tried watching it most people said to skip over the filler episodes and just watch the canon BUT THATS SOO USELES

2024.05.18 14:11 clanmccracken Dragonlance and the wild way some names are meant to be pronounced

Let me preface this by saying I love dragonlance. They are my favorite series of fantasy novels, bar none. I was shaken to my very core when I learned how some of these name are supposed to be pronounced. And before anyone asks, my source is Margret Weis herself.
First: Magius is pronounced May-JEE-us, with a long A and an emphasis on the second Syllable. Instead of a short A and an emphasis on the first syllable like magic.
Second: Raistlin’s Majere, his last name looks like it would be pronounced Mah-jeer. Two syllables. This is how I pronounced it for literal decades. While talking to Margret I said the name and she corrected me. His last name is pronounced Mah-Jeh-Ray with emphasis on the third syllable. Excuse me… what? A third syllable?? Even knowing the truth, I still can’t bring myself to say this name properly. It just feels wrong. I can’t call him Mah-jerry.

2024.05.18 14:10 Nyeteka What would we get for 213?

Not normally one to post about trades since I don’t know enough but I’m interested in the divergence of opinion on the value of 213 and so sought some independent views.
AM Hoops (NBA reporter turned YouTuber) suggested Kawhi for Dejounte Murray and this years no 1 pick
(https://youtu.be/6vnJsiZ0_B8?si=VgCxCZQ1NSvN5AxR at around 8:10)
Fadeaway World proposed Mathurin, Nesmith, McDermott and the 27 and 29 firsts for PG, and Wiggins, Kuminga, and the 26 and 28 firsts for Kawhi.
(https://fadeawayworld.net/how-the-clippers-would-look-if-they-decide-to-trade-kawhi-leonard-paul-george-and-james-harden)
Separately they proposed the Rockets’ Amen, Smith Jr and this years no 3 pick for PG
(https://fadeawayworld.net/proposed-trade-sends-paul-george-to-the-rockets-for-3-players-and-the-no-3-pick)
Is this ballpark? The Fadeaway World one for Kawhi seems high but even AM Hoops suggestion is not as low as what had been suggested here. I would assume reporters (even from FAW) would have some knowledge of the trade rules but the proposals are not obviously in breach of the rules based on the summaries that some have kindly posted here (and noting that aggregation appears to be barred only in terms of aggregating the salaries of our players to trade for a player on another team who earns more).
(https://www.sportico.com/leagues/basketball/2024/2024-nba-trade-deadline-cba-second-apron-1234765452/)
Based on what little I know about it it would seem more likely that PG would prefer to walk to a better contender like Philly but who knows. Maybe he would prefer to lock up a max than possibly be undersold by Morey or have to go to Detroit or something.
If we could get some young assets then we would start a fair bit ahead of what we would if we run it back. In other words foxwilliam’s ‘X’ might not be as small as all that

KiIIing myself Soon tonight..
21 years old. no sociaI Iife and Iife is reaIIy difficuIt and IoneIy. I despise looking at myself and feel useful or wanted just a straight failure I have no friends at all, have never had a Girlfriend, no family. am so lonely, struggling with social anxiety and being autistic it feels like I’m just living being for the sake of it among people and this feeling of being an alien. Loneliness is consuming me to no end I’ve spent the entire of last year trying to change, going to public places such as groups, bars and so on to no success I just go to college then home then, repeat.
Then ı tried, online dating no matches so even the online world is difficult, this doesn’t help that I don’t even really have family I can be around they don’t necessarily want me there. I believe there's nothing in this world for me. All just see in the near future is just being miserable and alone. I know how I’m going to do it and it will be a success I just can’t anymore and thank you for reading. I hope you find peace yourself..

2024.05.18 14:05 VulcanRaven_ Got pitnutter harassed at a bachelorette party

Got pitnutter harassed at a bachelorette party
Holy shit this was just hours ago and I’m still in disbelief. Nothing “bad” really happened but it was such a strange encounter.
So I went to a friend’s bachelorette party hosted at her house, I was already drunk and I was peeing myself, so first thing I did was ask where the bathroom was, they very nonchalantly pointed to a gated fence with a pitbull on the other side, and said “over there!”.
I couldn’t process it at first, I was like “what? Is this a joke?” But they very naturally kept pointing me there, just told me to make sure the dog didn’t get out.
So there I go, opening the gate a bit and slipping in, while pushing the pitbull back with my thighs. Its name was Keba, didn’t act in any particular pittieish way, she let me pass quite easily. I went to the bathroom and just sat there for a moment thinking about how I had to make physical contact with a pit just minutes after arriving to the party. I took a pic of her as I was going back (first slide).
The bride follows me on twitter, where I often post antipitbull shit, so that was probably the reason she opened the gate and just let the pit loose around the party.
She came at me and started going off about how they got their pit as a puppy, how she’s so smart and well trained, she can even give the paw! (Then proceeded to tell Keba to give the paw with no success)
She even told me about how they let their 3 year old daughter outside with the dog so they can get used to each other, and that Keba is so respect that she hides in her crate when the girl is around. (Ummmm…)
She finished by telling me she doesn’t understand why pitbulls are so hated, just look at Keba, she’s so nice and loving. A being of pure light and innocence🙏🏻. Jesus reborn. It’s how they’re raised.
Strangely, they also have an English sheepdog and they were telling everyone about how it’s always trying to herd everyone because wow! Dog genetics so funny.
I did tell them to be careful with that pit being around the girl because they’re very unpredictable, but they literally shrugged me off.
My guess is they invited me there with an agenda of showing me their good perfect pit so I would change my views or something. Maybe just to mess with me.
Anyway I went home after a while and now I’m decompressing the experience here.
Thank you for reading, guys.

2024.05.18 14:05 Realistic_Crab7372 I don’t know if the friendship with my best friend is worth it anymore

Me (21M) and my best friend “I will call him Jason in this post” (20M) have been friends for almost a decade. And for the last few years, he’s mostly been my only friend. He’s not the most social person either so we spent a lot of time together. We always had mostly similar passions and interests, we have the same humour and therefore had a lot of great times. I experienced a lot of great things together with him, like some really cool trips, or experimenting a little with drugs etc.. Therefore I hold a lot of value to this friendship.
But now for why I’m making this post. For the past few months or maybe even for the last year and a half, things haven’t been the same. When I graduated from school and started at university I tried to use the chance and tried to socialise more. This isn’t easy for me but I found some friends at university that are really cool and I think they find me cool as well. Of course we’re meeting up sometimes, and sometimes I brought Jason along because I thought it’ll be funny and we would have a good time. But it wasn’t, he was quite for almost the whole duration of the meet ups. Even when trying my best to include him it didn’t work out and that made things a bit awkward tbh and I regretted bringing him with me. After multiple times of him not saying anything to anyone i just stopped inviting him, which maybe is uncool from me but no way he actually enjoyed being there. I of course still spend most of the time with him, just for when others are involved I don’t bring him with me. He didn’t say anything to me about wanting to come to such meet ups so that’s just how it is now. My Problem with this is that like I said I mostly didn’t have many friends as a teenager, it was just him. But now I’m a bit older and I don’t want sitting on a bench and smoking weed alone with him be the only thing I do when going out anymore. And he just doesn’t seem to be wanting the same. This of course is really far away from quitting a friendship that lasted a decade, but there has been something else that combined with what I described right now makes me doubt the future of this friendship.
The second Problem is his Attitude in the last one and a half years. In some Moments he is annoyingly sensitive. I’m not a bad guy, I don’t say stuff that may hurt other people just for my own amusement. But of course I, like everybody else, like to do some banter, normal things in a friendship I would say. But for quite some time he can’t take a fucking joke and it’s really unbearable. Like for example last week we wanted to play a shooter game which we played a lot a few years ago, yk for the good old times and stuff. We talked about it the whole week and organised when we would do it. We both are really busy with university right now so time for hour long gaming sessions is spare, we said let’s do it on friday and I was really excited the whole week. Then Friday comes and I was ready for gaming with my bro for the whole night, the first round starts and I die very soon, my skills were a bit rusty. He was still alive and when he got approached by enemies he missed his whole magazine without one hitting one bullet. In my opinion this was a funny situation and I laughed a bit and said something along the lines of "damn not even one hit", after that he didn’t say anything and after a few minutes he said that he wants to go off. We wanted to play for the whole night but finished after 20 minutes because he didn’t like my comment I guess? I personally think this is silly behaviour and this didn’t happen for the first time, I could give you even more examples but don’t want this to get too long. This change in attitude btw happened before I started having some other friends so I think there’s no connection. And I know for a fact that everything’s going fine at home, so no extra stress or something that bothers him. Therefore I have to assume that this is just the person he developed into and I’m going to be honest I personally can’t really stand it. I of course asked him if everything’s right when such things happened but he always said that everything’s fine and pointed to blame to me.
So this is the situation and like I said in the title, I don’t know if this is worth it anymore. I without a doubt wouldn’t wanna be friends with a person that behaves like this but we’ve been best friends for a long time and I feel bad for maybe ending this. Therefore I’m asking you for help, is there maybe something I can do or what would you do in this situation? Or should I just accept that it’s over?
Thanks in Regards.
tl;dr : Best friend makes it hard to be friends with him and I don’t know if the friendship is worth it anymore

2024.05.18 14:01 WeAreOnlin Design an E -Commerce Website Builder for Shooting Up your Sales.

Design an E -Commerce Website Builder for Shooting Up your Sales.
Do you have any idea which element of your business has the potential to capture your market? It is the website of a business. It creates a unique space of a business in the digital space.
https://preview.redd.it/5emgz2kv461d1.jpg?width=4376&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f6ef8273f45099724b00dddeb8f9039bfc07144
It creates a first impression of your business, products and services. All this happens within a glance of 3 to 5 seconds. This helps to judge whether to know more and end up purchasing or to leave. Whether to become your customer or your competitor’s.
Let this article clear the fog if confused with questions like:
‘I am not a tech savvy person’,
‘To create online store is time consuming and costly and I don’t have either of them’ and
‘Which online store builder to approach’ etc.,
First of all, creating a website is easier and more cost-efficient in today’s times.
Moreover, a non-technical person can also become an E-store builder for oneself.
Only thing one needs to keep in mind is to build the website design wisely. This article will help you understand it better and also know how it plays as a trump card to your business.
A website design helps to create a long-lasting business relation with loyal customers. Get your website design right in the first instance itself and venture into success.
This is what would differentiate your online store from other competitors. as there is fierce competition in the online business world.
Certain elements that make a website design more user- friendly for customers are:
a. Optimised for Mobiles
b. Typography (Font)
c. White space
d. Navigation
e. Call to Action (CTA’s)
f. Compelling Visuals
a. Optimised for Mobiles:
The increase in the use of mobile phones and lower data cost helps a website to adapt to various screen sizes. This leads to displaying content clearly on various devices. A responsive website design is mandatory in modern times.
Adaptable to various Screen Sizes
b. Typography (Font):
To make the customer stay on your website and buy your offering, focus on using
→ Legible fonts
→ Appropriate font size
→ Adequate lines spacing
→ Adequate colour contrast between text and background
Use different fonts and font sizes variation. This creates hierarchy and emphasises the importance of various parts of the text.
c. White Space:
Cluttering a website’s home page with unnecessary content and colours, may distract the customers.
The more the white space, the more clarity the customers have. Navigation and purchasing your offerings becomes easy. White space anchors the audience’s focus on vital information leading to sales.
d. Navigation:
It is one of the most critical aspects of website design.
Most of the time, customers are in a hurry while visiting a website. Don’t make it difficult for them to navigate through different sections. As this can make them lose their interest and leave the site before the average view time.
Easy navigation provides the user to understand, use and stay on the website. This leads to potential sales.
e. Call to Action (CTA’s):
Encourage your visitors on the site to take some action. It could be either to buy your product or services or to subscribe to your newsletter.
CTA buttons should stand out on your website. As they guide the visitor to proceed to the next step and become your customer. If CTA’ s don’t stand out, your business may lose its sales.
f. Compelling Visuals:
What happens when the website does not use compelling or high-quality visuals? There are high chances that the customers get a bad impression as images are not clear. They may bounce from your website leaving no sales for your business.
All these elements enable an E- Commerce website builder to be effective and efficient at the same time.
On the other hand, an ineffective website design leads to poor user experience. Leading customers to leave your website soon. As a result, the conversion rate of viewers to potential buyers is low.
It won’t stop there. It continues to ruin your digital brand reputation and increases maintenance cost. As it would be difficult to update the website.
A poor website design can hurt customer engagement and generate profits. In other words, causing loss of a potential customer and revenue.
User-centric website design is a solution to all the effects caused by an ineffective and poor website design. It encourages seamless navigation and drive sales to an E-commerce website builder.
Navigation to your website should satisfy both ‘searches’ and ‘browser’. Those looking for something specific and those who visit your website to have a look. Having a search bar on the website makes the navigation process smooth and leads to more sales.
A well-designed website builder for online store is a powerful tool. It boosts your online sales by prioritising user experience. This strengthens your digital presence and generates traffic for your website.
Unleash the power of Onlin to create a well-designed Online platform for your business.
“You just can’t open a website and expect people to flood in. If you really want to succeed you have to create traffic” — By Joel Anderson, CEO of Five Below, Ex — CEO of Walmart.
