Sayings for pictures of yourselfc

I (28f) am seeing a longtime friend (28m) of an ex (27m). I'm unsure if we're doing anything wrong or if it's all just too complicated.
I (28f) started talking to an old mutual friend (28m), let's call him Scott, of an ex (27m), let's call him Logan, from high school/early undergraduate. I broke up with Logan after about 2 and a half years of dating. The breakup was not mutual and he had asked me to marry him a few weeks prior. I ended up calling things off because he was becoming physically abusive and controlling and we were moving too fast for our ages. The relationship was toxic and I know I didn't help to alleviate any issues we had. We would get into spats often and I had horrible anger management back then. He isolated me from my friend groups and even his own at a point. His parents bought us a house in a larger city. I say "us" but it was always meant for him. It was one of those "we were already looking for a house for him but since you're dating, you can both live there and start a family," type of things. Long story short, it was a lot of developing and conflicting things happening in the span of our relationship. This was about 9 years ago. I started dating someone else about a year later but that didn't last for similar reasons, and he was a lot older. Logan had found out about that and harassed me for the entirety of that relationship, not knowing it was just as bad as my relationship with him. Cops wouldn't listen when I wanted to file a report and didn't even want to look at the evidence I had, text, phone record and emails. It was just all around bad.
Now, I'm finishing up my post baccalaureate and I started chatting and going on dates with Scott for about a month. Scott was friends with another guy I dated for an incredibly short time in high school before Logan and was part of Logan's friend circle. Scott and Logan have been passive friends for years and are still in some amount of contact. Scott had no idea about Logan's treatment of me as he went to college in another city before coming back to town and nobody told him. I doubt many of his friend group were even aware, which I don't blame them. So, its just that extra layer of removal from the situation. We talked about their closeness on our first date and he assured me that they were never that close. He even informed me of him hearing about something similar happening with someone Logan dated recently. So, he wasn't all that surprised, but he doesn't know the full extent either, just bits.
Where I'm concerned if there's a line being crossed is that Scott is pretty close to Logan's best friend (m28), let's call him Bobby. Bobby and Scott still talk and even hangout when they can, but Bobby is still very close to Logan and always had been, even when Logan is in a totally different city. Scott and I have been taking things slow, but we are both realizing this may end up as a long-term relationship but we're still feeling things out. Scott knows he's going to have to sit Bobby and other friends, from the old group that he still talks to, down and tell them that we're dating, when things become official. It's still too soon to do that, but we felt it best to discuss the possibility of him having to do that. I've told Scott that I don't want to come between him and his friends. He's made it clear that he doesn't care but I don't want him to be isolated from his friends like I had been.
I really like Scott. He seems to really like me too. Things are still new and fresh so they could sour but we both hope that doesn't happen. We are doing our best to communicate with each other and share our needs. We plan on continuing to see each other and even more during the summer, we're both educators, and know if that goes well, then the talk will have to happen. But, are we crossing a line that shouldn't be crossed?
I didn't get many answers when i posted on rrelationshipadvice. However, Scott is starting to have doubts about the relationship. We've been spending more time together and even started little traditions. Nothing big but just starting series together and trying new restaurants together. He told me that during the quiet and slow times when he can start acknowledging or seeing us as a couple that he can't help but think about his relationships with Bobby and his other friends. He mentioned that he has gone on vacations and trips with Bobby and Bobby's friends and often those vacations include Logan because they're so close. They're planning to take a trip next month and Logan will more than likely be joining them. I told him that I wouldn't go with him because of Logan and I wouldn't stop him from going. I also told him that he can't unknow what he's knows about Logan. He agreed that he doesn't know how he'll feel when he sees Logan again but he knows if Logan finds out that we're dating he will cut off all ties with him and Bobby will follow him, Logan. He said it may cause a kind of divide between the friend group over his relationship with me. I reiterated that I don't want to come between him and his friends. He asked if I would be hurt if he ended up ending our relationship and I was honest with him. I told him that I would be hurt but that shouldn't make him want to stay with me. He needs to decide that for himself. I told him he needs to think it over and really decide for himself where he wants to take this. It's only been 2 months so it wouldn't be a huge deal, in a time sense. I just really like him but now I'm starting to have doubts with how much of his life is reliant on these guys. It could just be because it's me but I don't know that for sure.
We met up this past week and had a talk. He was ready to end things but he seemed to not want to say it. When I asked why, he said it was indeed because of his relationship with Logan. He made it seem like it wasn't a super close relationship at first but now it's sounding like it was close enough for him to feel some amount of guilt. I told him I was more hurt that he was choosing to continue a friendship with someone who actively hurts women, as I'm not the only one Logan has hurt, but the other woman didn't seem as hurt, if that makes sense. I also told him I didn't blame him because they were friends longer than we were seeing each other and that I know everything is complicated. We kept talking and he started voicing more that he wants me in the picture and hopes I can win his friends over. He asked if I could ever make amends with Logan and I said "no." I explained why, which was a lot of what the reasons why we broke up in the first place, but I wasn't explicit with what exactly happened. I didn't want to share because a part of me felt like it was still not the place to do so. He asked me if I could wait until he gets back from his trip and sees if 1) Logan shows any remorse, 2) See Logan period, and 3) See if Bobby would be adult enough to see why he wants to date me. He wants me to be his girlfriend but has said he needs a break until he can do all of those things.
Any advice?

So this story happened about a year ago near the end of my sophomore year in high school. For the end of my english class we had to make a presentation in partners about the book we were reading in small groups. So me and my partner, Nancy (not her real name). Now, Nancy is the popular girl of my school and, as you could guess, she refused to do any of the work on the presentation. I communicated this with my english teacher Ms. Eevee (not her real name) and she gave Nancy a warning that if she didn’t do at least 2 slides on the presentation, she would get a failing grade on the presentation. She said ok but the moment the teacher left, she swore at her under her breath and just stayed on her phone.
A week later, the day of the presentation came and I checked the presentation to see if Nancy did work on any of the slides I assigned her to do. Sure enough, no, nothing from Nancy in the slightest. I ended up doing the whole presentation by myself because Ms. Eevee told me that Nancy would just get an F on it. I ended up with a B and I thought that was it.
But oh no, ladies and gentlemen, there’s more. You see, I got Nancy’s number because I was texting her and making sure she was doing the assignment. Well, on Monday of the next week; I show up to school and no one says anything to me. I was confused until I came to English. Nancy’s Boyfriend, Carter (not his real name) came up to me before class started and he was mad. The exchange went like this:
Carter: Hey!
Me: (Not paying attention)
Carter: (Now closer to me) Hey! OP! I was talking to you!
Now this kid was on the football team so I wasn’t tryna mess with him
Me: Uh, Yes?
Carter: Why’d you send those pictures to my girl?!
Me: (Confused) Huh? What pictures
Carter: DON’T PLAY DUMB WITH ME! YOU SENT SCANDALOUS PICTURES TO MY GIRLFRIEND!
Everyone turned to look and some kids had stood up and came over to watch. This kid continued to yell about how dare I send those kinds of pictures to her and so on.
Eventually after he stopped I told him that I didn’t know who he was talking about and he said that I sent pictures of myself without clothes to Nancy, which was just not true. I told him that I didn’t and offered to show him that I didn’t send those pictures but he just said that “I deleted it” and was mad because “I was texting with her.” I told him it was because we were partners. (Carter wasn’t even in this class btw) I said to him that we had this presentation to do as partners and that I was texting her because she was refusing to do the work so she but she did nothing so she failed.
Then it finally hit me. She lied! She lied to everyone that I sent her scandalous pictures! She lied because I didn’t put her name on the presentation that she didn’t do btw. Long story short, Carter began beating me up and we got sent to the principal. Nancy came down too, to tell the principal about the scandalous pictures I supposedly “sent her” but couldn’t prove I actually sent them and Carter was suspended for 5 days meanwhile I got away with a bruised face and that girl’s reputation was lost.
But I don’t think I was the jerk for failing the popular girl and ruining her rep after disproving her claims I sent her “scandalous photos” right?

Hello everyone I hope you are all doing well.
Please forgive any mis use of any terminology, I am not the most familiar with these things, but please feel free to call me out on anything and correct me, I'm happy to learn from my mistakes.
This is going to be a bit of a lengthy post because I feel like I need to share most of the details just to give you and overall picture
So I have a bit of a dilemma that I was hoping you could help me with or just offer advice or even criticise, whatever you feel is right because I will take everything on board as I want to learn and do the right thing.
So some context to begin with, I am male and I am attracted to women. That including cis gendered women and trans women, I have had this attraction since I was starting secondary school or high school so I was very young. This was all through watching certain material online. I am definitely not attracted to men and I can safely say that because I have slept with a man to try it on a drunken night out.
My dilemma then. Whilst I find women attractive and I have been with both cis gendered and trans women in a sexual capacity (I have never had relationships with either but that's not for a lack of trying or desire) I find myself personally being a lot more into people with penis who like to switch from being top to bottom.
With that all being said I am currently looking into dating and it's really brought up a massive point for me. I know relationships are about more than sex, but I am worried really that I go and start dating and I end up hurting someone. Because I know I can care for someone and be there no matter what, but what if I get somewhere down the line with a cis gendered woman and it all breaks down because of a lack of sexual compatibility, it would be horrible not only for them but myself as well. And on the other hand I have read up a lot about dating trans women and I came across the term 'chaser'. So I am worried that I would be put into that bracket as well and end up hurting someone because of that.
With all of that being said I have tried it all, cis women, trans women (no-op) and men. The only time I felt completely happy was when I was with trans women. So what should I do ? Do I keep my mind open to all women and see how things go down the line and cross any bridges when it comes to it, if it even comes to it. Or do I pool my focus into trying to find someone who has the characteristics I know for a fact I like and I will always like without a doubt in my mind ?
Thank you for reading, I really do appreciate any and all advice and guidance. If you have any questions for me please don't hesitate to ask, I will try my best to answer as best I can.

X rays late 2023 https://imgur.com/a/5GQzcFD
Early 2023 https://imgur.com/a/Fh6e6j0
2022 https://imgur.com/a/zDnAwBL
Info: 35/F, 95 lbs, 5’3” current medications: meloxicam, trazodone, lexapro; supplement various antioxidants and antionflammatories
Previously very active- personal trainer, tennis instructor, walk 3-5 miles a day, currently nearly bed bound
Ok, so I’m kind of at the end of my rope her and hoping someone can look at a series of x rays I’ve had over the past couple of years and provide some guidance. I feel like no medical professionals have taken me seriously and my pelvis now feels very unstable; I can barely function anymore and haven’t been able to hold down a job in a year and am scared to walk. The short version is I believe I had an initial injury to my sacral ligament(s) years ago that was never adequately treated and it’s progressively gotten worse and has distorted muscular attachments and now effecting my spine and full body. I’m not sure how to proceed with treatment at this point and feel like I’m wasting away. Sorry for the long post but I hope to provide some context.
In like 2015 I had some sort of undetermined injury when deadlifting; I felt something sort of slip in my lower left sacrum area and a strange full body sensation. I immediately stopped and mostly stayed in bed for a week before seeking medical attention. At the time there was some pain and feelings of tightness on my left side, but not crazy. I was sent to pt where they just had me basically stretching my left side and doing basic glute strengthening. I did this for 6 months with no improvement and basically gave up and decided to live with it. Continued working and being active with continuous discomfort.
In early 2022 I felt something again happen in my left side, it felt like everything sort of collapsed inwards and upwards on my left side and my right side felt very “loose” in my pelvis and also ribs. I went to a doctor who was dismissive but gave me an x ray
X ray here: https://imgur.com/a/zDnAwBL They said I looked fine, but now looking closely you can sort of see directly above the coccyx a bone or ligament at a 45 degree angle, which appears to be distorting the ligaments on the left side upwards. There’s also what appears to be an injury or scar tissue in the upper right of the sacrum as well as avulsed ligaments on the ilium, and iliolumbar ligaments on the right side. Note the position of my iud, as it moves significantly on next x rays.The doctor said I could do pt if I felt it was helpful, which I did for 3 months with no improvement.
Early 2023, felt additional slipping inwards and up on my left side. It felt like my entire pelvic floor moved up. This year I also fractured a rib on my right side while trying to play tennis, but didn’t seek treatment because I learned there’s nothing to do but rest. All the ribs on my right side feel loose and left side feels incredibly tight and restricted.
X rays here: https://imgur.com/a/Fh6e6j0 Went to urgent care because it felt serious and was dismissed. Again looking closely you can see a white structure on the left side above the coccyx avulsed upwards. From the left view you can see all of the enlarged muscle and ligaments on the right side, which look disconnected to me.
Late 2023 it got much worse and I went to a spinal surgeon who took x rays and said it looked fine, just a bit of scoliosis. Note the location of my iud. It looks like my left pelvic wall is collapsing inwards. Complete loss of the midline below the sacrum which I believe shows the glutes. The soft tissue and ligaments look absolutely crazy to me and on lateral views you can see what appears to be tough fibrotic bands going up and down my abdomen. It feels like my body is trying to stay upright on the left and the right side feels completely loose and unstable. When I walk I have to stop to adjust every few minutes by pulling down on the outside of my left hip and pushing in on my spine above my sacrum, I feel little pops and slight relief doing this, but it’s constant. When sitting it feels like my left pelvis sort of floats outward and right is in and up. It feels like the entire pelvic floor is up several inches and there’s maybe one inch between the top of my pelvis and ribs now.
I worked up the courage to go to a physiatrist last week, where they sort of shrugged and said maybe I just herniated a disk. I forced them to prescribe at least an mri, which I am going to next week, but I’m just scared they won’t take it seriously since they wouldn’t even look at my x rays, saying you can’t really see soft tissue or ligaments (I understand this is the standard view, but I’m sure you can see them on these x rays or at least get a general picture, especially the fact that my cervix went from below the sacrum and anteverted and has moved up several inches and is at a 45 degree angle). They prescribed meloxicam for the pain and inflammation and said this will probably fix it, which I highly doubt.
My full body is affected, my cervical area feels collapsed inwards, I have constant headaches and feelings of vertigo. I have periods of deep throbbing in my left abdomen, like there is a restricted artery. My left side feels hard and weak and I noted my left leg is an inch smaller than the right in terms of circumference. I can’t feel the outside of my left foot anymore and there are dark marks over several of my vertebrae in the lumbar and thoracic region, maybe bruising? It feels like all the muscles in my left hip and flute are underneath my sacrum while on the right they’re hanging outwards, hard to describe. My coccyx is detached now, I’m sure, and I constantly feel it slipping up and left and feel a little more stability when I physically push it down and to the right. I can barely function or think and spend 90% of my thoifgts and energy on how to position myself to feel stable body wise. I lost my job and haven’t been able to get a new one, I’m so uncomfortable when traveling to interviews that I come off inarticulate and just sitting there I’m scared that my pelvis or spine collapse any moment. I’m almost certain that this left sided tightness and potential fibrotic muscle is strangling blood flow, and notably in the cervical region this to my brain. I feel extremely fatigued and depressed and can barely eat anymore…I’ve went from 120 lbs (with a good amount of muscle mass) to 95ish and I know this cannot be good for my musculoskeletal stability, but any time I’ve tried to work out I get pains on my spine, ribs, hip and shoulder.
Any thoughts? Will mri be adequate to diagnose the fundamental issue? Should I look into surgery or will I just be laughed away? I’m scared it’s just muscle and ligament avulsion and no one can do anything unless there are bone breaks, which there may or may not be at this point. I understand sacral stress fractures can be missed on x ray?
Thank you for any thoughts, I appreciate any guidance at all!!

My neighbour who has harassed me in the past took a picture of me with the flash on over the fence, he has physically attacked me and intimidated me a couple of years back but I was too afraid to say anything to police as it could result in more conflict . I’m unsure what to do I know this seems kind of petty but it makes me intimidated to bathe/ sit in my own garden. I’m worried he maybe taking pictures of my family too. He is a fully grown adult so am I. I’m trying my best to ignore it and don’t want to have a conflict as I want to enjoy summer, I just got a new patio and new outdoor furniture too so I really can’t be bothered with immature adults ruining it for me. Thanks

I thought my husband and I were doing well in general.. apparently not. So much has happened for us in the last 1 year. Here is a quick recap, its all over the place and most of these point are not connected.

• Started working together
• Found him (my fiancé) on Tinder
• Went to amazing couples therapy where we discovered that he was avoidantly attached while I leaned ofc anxious..an improvement from disorganized which I used to be.
• We downloaded his tinder data, and I was able to see that he was telling the truth, and had never chatted with anyone, and never cheated.
• Cancelled our wedding regardless, and moved to his family's country of origin because he wanted to pursue his art and it was a lower cost of living
• Right before our move found horrible horrible things out about my mom (main abuser) and completely grieved her as a loss. So basically she died for me.
• My grandma died, my aunt died, his grandma died, his aunt died.
• I got a lot healthier after "losing" my mom. Been in trauma therapy for 4 years and started to really see all of the fruits of my labor
• Started working on my art a lot and sharing it.
• I built a solid friend group in our new country and I learned to absolutely love it here, even though it wasn't somewhere I pictured myself living.
• I became the happiest I've ever been in my life. I feel good every day. PTSD symptoms are much lower. Life is genuinely good most days. I tell him how happy I am all the time.
• He started building his business and got really into it. He has employees now, and things are going well. He is his own boss. Our life is better than ever financially (in my opinion).
• But this meant his art has gone no where, as he puts his time somewhere else.
• Because he is so busy with work he hasn't made any close friends since moving.

And the most important point:

• We got married on paper for visa reasons and he started introducing me to everyone in our NEW life as his wife and I started calling him my husband. Back in the US not many people know we are married. We started talking about kids a LOT after our move. I am 32 and he is 35, so it's very age appropriate.

Which bring me to today
Today we were just off kilter. He has been pretty much solidly busy since mid march due to his job. Now it is mid may. In this time I have made some great friends and built my own life up a lot. Sundays we usually spend the day together and they are my favorite time of the week.
But today we got in an argument. It started because I asked him how he is doing and how he is finding life here, and if he still wanted to live here long term. This opened up a can of worms of him being unhappy. It was unsettling because this is our 3rd move for his art. The others were just to different apartments or houses, but this one was across the world.. each time we've moved he has instead focused on building his business.
I tried to point out that maybe there's something in his heart that's stopping him from doing what he wants, not something physically.
IDK where this lead us but basically I said I was very happy here and he started to challenge me on that. He said that I dont seem happy. I was really offended by this because I always tell him how happy I am these days, but eventually we chalked it up to us not spending enough relaxed time together as he is always working and I am always busy these days.
Anyways it was a bad fight but we got through it enough and he tried to cheer me up, but I just felt really off around him all day.
Recently I have been feeling a bit down about the fact that a formal wedding isn't back on.. he has mentioned it a few times over the last 8 months but never really organically or on his own. I didnt want it to happen until he was feeling enthusiastic about it, but every time we approached that there were serious logistical issues that make it feel completely un-doable.
Tonight while we were chatting about some friends it felt like literally every one of our friends is getting married and having babies. 3 couple friends getting married, 3 couple friends pregnant. Endless couple friends recently having children. And I just got a bit down about it all. I told him I want to get married too, and he agreed but in a way that felt very noncommittal.
So I asked him blatantly for some extra reassurance and he got upset with me for asking that. I got angry because I think it is a bare minimum, because I ALWAYS reassure him.
After I got angry, I said something along the lines of like do you even really want to get married? And he said "well we have all these issues" and I tried to get him to elaborate. He said that we are not really ready to get married yet, and that we are "on the edge" of being ready to get married. I was completely and utterly confused and extremely angry as he introduces me to as his fucking wife? Suddenly I feel like this is all a game to him? We have conversations about life insurance policies, and children, and other shit like that. I just cant comprehend it.
How long do I wait? It makes me want to pack up my bags and move out.
For me, It feels like he thinks everything in our life is an issue lately. I dont know what is weighing on his soul, but it feels like he hates literally everything. I dont get it as my eyes our life is incredible, and he will easily agree with me about it when I say that.. But then today he did admit that he does not feel grateful for his life most days. I suppose this might be because he is overworked?
But also I believe it is because he is comparing himself to the extremely wealthy elite kids he grew up with/went to college with and he has very low self esteem in many ways. Many of his friends say things like "If you don't have at least 200k in assets right now, you're in huge trouble" (becuase of the economy) etc etc. He knows so many extremely wealthy people.
It's so particularly frustrating when it comes to money because even though we are doing better now than almost ever before, it's never a win. For him it is always "well we are in a worse position now than we were 1 year ago if you really think about it".. Even though we have a maid, we order groceries whenever we want, we have an amazing apartment in the best part of a metropolitan city.. we get to buy things when we need them. But 1 year ago we sold a business and it gave us the cash to relocate, so now we are "technically" worse off.
For context I spent most of my adult life on food stamps and visiting food banks regularly.
I dont know I am just so angry at him. The biggest takeaway from couples counseling we had was that he needed to open up his heart. And he only ever does once I close down. All day today he was trying to be extra kind to me because I was so closed down. He even said so- that my heart felt closed.
The counselor told him so many times that if he keeps pushing me away, a point will come where I can't take it anymore, and I feel like this is happening.

Hi Everyone,
I know a lot of us come here to rant about AM setup, so am I... TBH it has got to a point where it is affecting my mental health. I can see my parents immensely affected that their daughter of age:29 isn't married or near it yet
I don't understand why does a girl who has a few strict criterion look upon as moody and difficult.
We(my parents and I) have been shuffling these AM websites/newspapers and haven't been able to finalize one decent enough guy.
All I ever wanted was a guys with following qualities:

• ⁠Bengali, born between 1992 and 1995, decent looking, decent earning, stable job, height at least 5.9
  
• someone with whom I can feel at ease, feel at home, find calmness even in silence, count on him at my lowest and excited to share my happiness with
  
• ⁠living in any of the metro cities(so that I can continue my job)
  
• not take any dowry, I know my father will definitely want to give but I would want my man to have the guts to deny and rather volunteer for 50-50 wedding if possible
  
• should be each other's best friends
  
• ⁠should have strong values
  
• provide personal space, trust each other
  
• look outside family and consider us as a team
  
• work as a team. Not expect me to do all the house hold chores. I will definitely support in our home finances as per my capacity.
  
• ⁠enjoy cooking experimental at home occasionally. I can do survival cooking and rather I keep making quite a few dishes that I see on the internet but please don't expect me to cook all 4 meals by myself daily. One should be okay to have a cook for daily meals
  
• ⁠equal respect for both set of parents and siblings
  
• ⁠ready to have conversations and not declare his thoughts as the ultimate thing
  
• ⁠identity and acknowledge the wrong even if it is from his side of the family
  
• be my workout buddy, may be play some sport with me. I am chubby so I need to be active throughout the year
  
• ⁠should be foodie
  
• ⁠willing to travel and explore not being a couch potato all the time
  
• ⁠non pet loving (I have my own set of reasons)
  
• ⁠shouldn’t expect me to do all 16 shringaar all the time while the boys don’t even change their salutations after marriage. I will definitely do all that during festivals but it won't be possible on a daily basis.
  
• ⁠should be ready to stay separately from parents same as the girls are expected to
  
• ⁠can have past but should be out of it completely
  
• ⁠thoughts on having kids should match, can be discussed
  
• ⁠Drinking - Occasionally, Smoking - No
  
• Comfortable around/with my friends, I just a have handful of them.
  

Note: The guy will definitely find these qualities in me too, I can assure that.
But what we find is sometimes very disgusting and I hate those mothers who carry that invisible attitude of " Hum Ladke Wale Hain" with their boys having weird expectations from a girl but won't change an ounce of their habits and behaviour. Some guys are so damn rude and clearly say they won't be able to take care of my parents when they get old, some guys ghost for stupid reasons, some guys are so desperate, some guys were upset that I did share my trip pictures with them( within just 3-4 days of talk) some guys want an answer so as to why I am trying the AM path even though I have been living in a Tier 1 almost all my life, some guy's mothers straight up want me to baby sit and take care of there grown up sons and want me leave work after kids, some mothers find me overweight, some fathers want to know how much cooking I can do, sometimes the kundalis don't match.... I MEAN ITS TOO MUCH TO DIGEST.
I can go on and on....
Girls how are you all dealing with the AM pressure, please do let me know. Please help...

Male. 28. Hispanic. 6'3 219LBS Current medications:Valtrex. No previous medical issues Non Smoker. Location: Right side of foreskin right under head of penis
I started a new job where I walk for 8 hours a day in the sun. Penis started to feel strange so I took a look at it and saw that the entire right half of my foreskin was very red. I looked closer and saw several small bumps? No fluid, not painful, no scabbing, but itchy. Didn't think much of it. The next day the inflammation had completely vanished but left these behind? I noticed the smallest cut imaginable with a single white dot in the middle of most of them. Didn't take pictures unfortunately. They were barely over the skin and mainly sat on the folds of my foreskin. I also get a constant tingling feeling inside my Urethra when having the urge to pee.
Went to urgent care where the doc who saw me says he isn't confident it is HSV but prescribed me meds just in case. Urinalysis came back clean, no culture grow, and got a blood test for HEP A, B and HIV. All negative.
3rd day in https://ibb.co/ZVK8j6f https://ibb.co/bHy2Snj
This is 5 days later(8 days from start of initial symptoms. https://ibb.co/ynKtgwF https://ibb.co/BswQkFt
Getting tested specifically for HSV tomorrow but my health anxiety is killing me.
Docs notes on MyChart.
7 small areas of punctate erythema with possible small blister. May be consistent with HSV-2.
Thoughts?

WiFi has been going out sporadically almost like it’s intentional sometimes. WiFi went out about an hour ago, new device showed up on my WiFi that’s never been there before. WiFi is working fine now, and it is not listed when I scan the network now.
It also says it has Kerberos security if that’s of any worth. Looking for all and any tips. I have pictures of the device name as well.

I must begin with saying the universe ending made me incredibly emotional throughout the whole ending. I took the time with all the Hearthians and told them all to wait. I couldn't dare to skip the credits (later I discovered I anyway couldn't 😅). It's kind of crazy how I knew what to do with the warp core almost instantaneously. At least I was right about the project being the most secret place. I now understand why people want to forget playing this game to go through it again, and I totally relate to that feeling because getting the ending again is not even remotely close to the first time. I will never forget it.
Even though I ended up requiring some hints (here [early-middle spoilers] and here [late spoilers]) that I was using sparingly by unlocking one hint at a time and squeezing it for a few hours, I still feel like I figured it out on my own and was able to preserve the charm with little to no harm. I'd like to thank everyone who helped me by writing creative gradual hints that still left room for my interpretation (especially u/Shadovan).
However, I know it's not over. I think I missed significant parts of information and am yet to discover more than 2 endings (Huge spoilers):

1. Dying forever with the advanced warp core in my hand (I literally meditated 😅)
2. Using the advanced warp core at The Vessel

My ship log looks almost complete but doesn't feel like one.
I have a complete segment disconnected from the rest, and I feel like I can add a few more pieces to the existing colored puzzles.
I have a strong feeling that I need to talk to at least one more person(?) because I heard if you don't talk to Solanum, they don't participate in the main ending (and I am really glad they did, and Feldspar ❤️and Esker too and really all of them).
I have a few significant things that I haven't really figured out, like the Gravity Cannons, Shuttles and especially The Interloper which unlocked a whole new segment disconnected from anything I understand well. I feel like it must connect back.
I have a theory of the shuttle being able to reach the Quantum Moon because normally it doesn't go anywhere, and I saw one at the Quantum Moon (which I guess is Solanum's?). I tried to take a picture of the moon so that the shuttle has a destination but it looked like I was doing it incorrectly because pointing at Nomai text inside the shuttle kills the image. I'd also love to find a way to reach the eye without killing the time loop.
I tried playing around with the advanced warp core to cause a different ending, by taking it to the black hole (since it has tiny black and white holes), High Energy Lab (it doesn't fit) and the observatory since I thought the Hearthians would have something to say, but it only got me an achievement (nice). I also tried setting the locator on the Attlerock to the eye and then completing the game normally, to emphasize the eye being found (since the clever Solanum assumed it may not want to be found). If I could go back to The Vessel, perhaps I would put the advanced warp core back and then try to visit the eye. Was any of this close to something?
Since The Interloper unlocked a new segment, I assume there is more to discover there. I know it is the source of Ghost Matter, and that's about it. I couldn't find more cracks in the ice.
I am looking for a gentle direction, with somewhat vague hints to preserve the charm.
Thank you very much.

I twisted my ankle 5 weeks ago walking to my car (I lost my footing and it twisted inward) it's been swollen ever since.
It hurt when I first did it and I did struggle to walk. The pain was intense for the first 5 minutes and then it eased off but I still had a limp for a couple of days. It never really hurt enough for me to think its broken but even 5 weeks on when I twist it into the position I injured it, it hurts a lot. Its not unbearable pain but it does hurt, I'd say 3/10 for pain but 0/10 when I'm just walking normally.
I have attached a picture of my swollen ankle and my normal ankle for reference. I'm going to call the doctors tomorrow but I don't want to waste time if it is just a sprain. (Picture won't attach so will keep trying)

I'm a dumped. I was in the same situation last year this time, trust me, it's all a déjà vu, even the dates matches exactly for the events happened last year with the same person. I went no contact and he contacted me after few months and guess what? I was dump and took him back. I'm never gonna take him back again. He is probably back with his uneducated ex while I just came back from a conference on nuclear fusion. I really want to send a picture of my presentation to him saying with a caption "have fun with your uneducated gf while I'm having fun with doing science". But I don't want to do that because I want to be a bigger person.
The bottomline is never take them back The history is gonna repeat. Had I not taken him back, by now, I would have been moved on. Tomorrow is my birthday, if he wishes me, I'm not even going reply. He had wished me last year, I don't want him to wish this year. All I wish for is to lose my memories. It doesn't hurt me much, I just hate myself for giving him another chance and letting myself down. I hope I'll have the strength to forgive myself.

So just this past week I find out he was talking to one of his girl co workers outside of the job. They texted on snap here and there and he was liking her pictures on instagram. She followed him but he never followed her. Probably because he was hoping I wouldn't figure it out.
But I seen her liking his post on Facebook and that's how l put all the pieces together. I asked him to hang out and I took his phone and looked thru it just to find them messaging on snap about "I wish you were here and send food" and he replied with same or something like that. And that confirmed it for me so I went off and started crying and saying how could you do this and he kept saying she was just a co worker nothing more and I told him to just take me home and he not once seemed to care.
So I broke up with him and removed him off everything. then he went and told his family that we broke up and he told then what happened (his family is toxic and judgmental) and they didn't seem to care much. He tried calling me and texting me but I never answered and then he sent a text explaining everything and finally giving me the closure I needed. And we had a deep conversation regarding everything and he went into detail about her and him. and I guess she worked in the department his aunt worked at which he also works too but different department so that's how he knew of her and said it was only just casual but he soon realized how he would feel if I did that and he came to terms we were going thru a rough patch and he regretted it so much and would do anything to get me back . But here's the problem.
when we were talking about working things out he said I'm just afraid my family will make this a huge issue. I told them we broke up and explained what happened and why it ended but if I tell them we got back together they will just talk shit and won't want you around. I then tell him, your family won't want me around but you're the one who cheated on me?
And he's like yeah they're just like that they will make this a big deal and talk shit. That caught me off guard because I know his family is super negative and judgmental bu* can't come to terms of why they wouldn't be mad at ,
instead. He said his family also reacted poorly when his mother and father divorced and they didn't want the father around anymore. I'm so confused dude I just need some input on this because what

Me and my partner have been together for four, almost five years and we are long distance. we have never met.
this will be a very long read but it honestly doesn’t even sum up everything. there’s been so much more stuff with terrible abusive details and so much emotion that I cannot capture in this post. I also could not explain everything to detail and left out a lot about this girl im eventually going to mention in this post and have left out a lot about other stuff my bf has done and said to me.
to preface, me and my bf both are not in therapy. He is going to therapy in a few months. He is in college and has friends, while I have no friends.
I have a lot of jealousy issues and insecurities. my boyfriend has messed up countless times with his friends. he’s broken a million boundaries over and over throughout this whole relationship. he says he can’t get better. he says he needs me to be more appreciative of the good things he does and to stop getting so mad when he hurts me. any time I talk to him about the bad stuff, he victimizes himself, brings up things I did in the past that I no longer do, gaslights me, manipulates me and tries to break up with me. when he breaks boundaries with people, he just breaks up with me and gets super mad. every boundary broken has been with girls.
he’s emotionally cheated, lied a billion times, hid things a billion times, done things I tell him make me uncomfortable with other people, ranted (talked shit) about me to his friends a billion times but left out all the things he’s done to provoke me and abuse me..and through all of that he has yelled at me and cried and blamed me. I am always very up front about my boundaries and try to be stern every single time.
so through all of that, I have horrible trust issues and insecurities. now we are having issues with this girl in his hometown at his work. he did substances with her, hid it, lied about it, and since then he has made her a HUGE deal. I told him one of my boundaries is not hanging out with people nor being their friend if you’ve messed up boundaries with them intentionally. all of the boundaries I have placed are ones that I follow as well by the way.
he told me he can’t get rid of her because she works with him and can’t find another job and doesn’t want to find another job (it’s a summer job). he wanted to hang out and explore abandoned places with her like the last time they hung out for six hours and also did substances and other stuff at her place. he cried and complained and started about 6 different big fights with most of them resulting in him trying to break up with me or breaking up with me for a few hours to a day.
this girl has a boyfriend but I have this gut feeling she likes him but I could be totally wrong! Like I said, I have really bad jealousy and insecurities but with that comes paranoia. I don’t think every girl likes my bf but there has to be signs and I guess my mind has convinced me there are “signs”.
the signs are: she followed him on Facebook, added him on snapchat, has him on discord and instagram.
she only followed my boyfriend despite knowing I exist.
she only follows my boyfriend and three other people (who are famous). she does not follow her boyfriend on that account.
she friended me on Facebook so I asked her why she friended me on facebook and not instagram (where she always talks to my bf) because she knows I exist on instagram but she said she didn’t notice she wasn’t following me which just feels complete lie. I asked then was asking why she only followed him , (a few famous people), and did not have her bf on this account. she said she has multiple accounts but she was snappy and rude when she responded to me saying stuff like “can’t I follow who I want to what’s the problem here lol” and stuff. I asked a simple question, I wasn’t rude or anything. she apologized for being rude a few minutes later and then went to my boyfriend while he was working (she was in to grab some food) and she told him she thinks I hate her because she was rude to me and didn’t want me thinking she’s a “fucking bitch”. her words told from him to me.
Since my boyfriend said he cannot leave or distance since they work together and it would be too awkward he tried breaking up with me multiple times and said this summer would be miserable with him because all ill do is complain and cry about being anxious with what he has caused. I told him to just be distant and he agreed to.
he had ended up telling her im uncomfortable with them hanging out because she kept begging him to hang out again and he didn’t think it was fair to not explain why he keeps saying no to her. he told her he slipped up on a boundary with her and that I don’t allow it. it made me sound so shitty and he refused to explain my side of why im uncomfortable in more details like I begged and then when I tried to explain it to her (I ended up just not sending it) he kept telling me to cut out parts that make him look bad and that she “doesn’t need to know everything about our relationship”. so I know she thinks im a shitty partner now and I know she does not like me but she doesn’t know anything he’s done.
the day before yesterday was his first day back to work for summer break and they only worked together for about an hour and thirty minutes but still managed to talk quite a bit. she also came up to him and said she wishes they could still hang out and that she’s sad or something about it despite knowing im uncomfortable and that we’ve already made it clear that wouldn’t be happening. She also asked him if they were still good (she was definitely asking because there’s tension between me and her even though her and I like don’t really talk, I’ve also tried inviting her to play games with me and my bf online before he messed up with her and she refused every time and wouldn’t reschedule but then she wants to play games alone with him.) then he asked her if he could get his cigarettes back that he gave her. he says he can’t help talking to her at work because he doesn’t want to be rude and that it’s hard to avoid her.
Today they are currently working together and it’s only been a few hours yet so far she’s come up to his register behind him and looked at his phone, talked a bit and told him she could try and get him a free electric guitar, gave him a piece of gum without asking, showed him pictures of her and her boyfriend at a prom event, talked about working out, etc. Doesn’t sound like much maybe but it hurts when you’ve asked him to distance himself and it was barely half of his first shift and all that has already been done. and not to mention she was stocking while my bf was on register so she kept coming out of her way to talk to him.
if I complain, he just wants to break up. I wish she knew why I don’t want them hanging out. he made me sound like im just a toxic girlfriend. I can’t explain anything to her without him threatening to like cut and kill himself and break up with me.
if I break up with him they’re just gonna hang out all summer and he do god knows what and talk shit about me for sure. he would never explain what he’s done. I’ll look even worse. I just want peace but my heart is breaking. I don’t want to victimize myself but I have such a big heart, i believe in and love god, I love with my whole heart, I try to see good in people, I gave him everything I had and im still trying to pull more out of me. it feels like it’ll never be enough. I know he will forget about me because last summer we were on break and he said he let himself “slip” up and looked at a girl who came into the store with lust and full attraction because he was trying to imagine his life without me. he didn’t even tell me because he didn’t think he needed to since we were on break. He recently told me maybe a month ago. the break lasted like two days and it was because our relationship was so bad and he did not love me anymore. there have been multiple times he has not loved me but it was always because of my reactions to his abuse.
I’ve never not once stopped loving him and I’ve never once found anybody else attractive while I’ve been with him, not even celebrities. I’ve tried to warn him a thousand times that if he breaks boundaries again or hurts me some other way, I’ll be done. he just does it like he breathes. he says he feels remorse but he just always does it again. he said he feels better without me because im always hurting him. I “hurt” him by reacting to his abuse, asking him questions about things he’s done, asking him if he’s broke boundaries with his friends when he’s with them, etc. His first day of work this summer I was asking him questions about the girl and he was so defensive. I still feel like something else happened like he ranted about me or she said something about me that he doesn’t wanna tell me. it was not a normal reaction to a simple question.
is there any way I can get over this without having to break up? It feels like my world is ending. he is my only friend. he is doing great in life. he can move on easily and will move on easily when I am gone. he said before he would just put himself more into work, friends and school and would just forget about me. I have nothing really. I do nothing all day as I don’t even have access to a job.
I just need advice on how to go about controlling my emotions when he’s around this girl and other potential friends.

So I’ve been talking to this girl off and on for 3 months at college. we hung out and few times then we’d make plans and she would cancel or have something come up so I would see her at parties mostly and we’d talk most the party or talk for a minute and then she’d go with her friends but when I talked to her I would ask her why she cancels or is she even trying to talk to me truly and she would say she does want to talk and she would just say I’m playing games or that I’m talking to other girls and she doesn’t like that. But I try to tell her that I’m actually not talking to any other girls. I have a couple friends that are girls but I’m not talking to anybody else so the last party she kinda understood that and we talk for like an hour straight at the party and she hugged me before she left and then since then she’s been hugging me and touching me a lot everytime we hang out or she’ll rest her head on me for a second but then I talked to her before I left school to know where we stood and I asked her for her feelings and she said she doesn’t know and you can tell she was getting flustered or she just didn’t know how to explain her then she said she wants somebody to fit her life so i asked do you know want to be able to fit in your life and she said yeah so I asked do you want me in your future and she said yeah so I was ok well that tells me what I need so I left it at that. So I go home we talk here and there every other day or so, I asked to call her last week and we FaceTimed for a few hours and then I was talking to her sister to while we were on the phone just chilling and then she took a picture of me and her sister was making fun of her and then the girl I’m talking to was like “it was cute ”then the girl was telling her sister that I try to get her to talk about her feelings with me and then her sister was like “good luck with that cause she never knows what she want” which I kinda knew already. but then she was saying she’s tired and she said call me tomorrow when you get home from my workout so I was ok so I texted her when I got home and asked if she was awake cause I sent her a snap and she usually opens it in the morning but she didn’t and then I didn’t hear from her for like 2 hours after and she was like “yeah im awake I just have a headache so I’m laying in bed” so I was oh ok well I can you later if you want to get rid of your headache and she responded 2 hours later saying give me a sec cause I need to go help somebody with something so I was alright just call me later if you want if not like it’s cool so then she had some family stuff going on and she texted me about it. I was confused by how she was saying it like I didn’t know if she was trying to say she can’t call or she just wanted to talk about it. So I was ok like “I get it. You’re good handle what’s going on and if you need to talk I’ll be here or if you need space I can give it to you. You just let me know what you need” she left me on read so I was alright ima just step back from the situation so I didn’t talk to her for a couple days and she goes “wyd” like two nights later and I was nothing really right now but wyd” Nothing back from her So I’m like alright. I text her the next day cause I had a question for her sister and I didn’t want to just call her cause she goes to sleep early sometimes so I texted her like “are you awake still?” Nothing again. The next day I call her just to check in and then she let it ring for awhile and then declined which is fine cause she might be busy but then she don’t call back or text back so I’m like I know you seen it and there’s just no communication and in the mean time she hasn’t really been snapping on Snapchat but like she’s done that since like the last week I was at college. But then also I posted something on my Snapchat last night and then she slid up and was like and she was playful making fun of it cause it was a funny thing so I went back and was playfully making fun of her and then nothing again.

The next day I call her just to check in and then she let it ring for awhile and then declined which is fine cause she might be busy but then she don’t call back or text back so I’m like I know you seen it and there’s just no communication and in the mean time she hasn’t really been snapping on Snapchat but like she’s done that since like the last week I was at college. But then also I posted something on my Snapchat last night and then she slid up and was like and she was playful making fun of it cause it was a funny thing so I went back and was playfully making fun of her and then nothing again.

I'm a relative beginner in electronics and decided to try to build an waveform generator based on a Raspberry Pi Pico. I've built a prototype circuit and it works, but the time to reach the set value is really-really slow, I can't push it beyond 8 kHz without cutting off the signal early, even tho the Raspberry Pi would be perfectly capable of going into the megahertz range. This leaves 2 culprits: the DAC chip, which is a DAC0800, or the op-amp, which is a TL072.
Here is a picture of the test circuit (and test setup) I've built.
And this is a pic of the oscilloscope measuring a square wave, where you can see how the signal is really trapezoidal, even at these low speeds.
I've tried reading the datasheets, but admittedly I might not understand important parameters. For the DAC0800 for example, it says "Fast Settling Output Current: 100 ns" (since it's a current output DAC), which in my head would translate to 1 000 000 000 ns in a second, so 1 000 000 000 = 10 000 000 (= 10 MHz) output current sets.
For the TL072, it says "High slew rate: 20 V/μs", which in my head would translate of "being able to follow a 20 volts of change in a microsecond", so following at least up to 1 MHz of voltage changes. Since the amplitude is around 15 volts, that seems to be way in range as well.
So theoretically, both components should do way-way better, unless I'm missing something very important. The datasheets of both components:

• DAC0800: https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/dac0800.pdf
  
• TL072: https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tl072.pdf
  

Any advice would be welcome here. It might be that the DAC0800 is simply old and slow, I'm not sure to be honest. It was a simple enough chip with a simple enough interface and it was what I had at home. I'm open to reasonably priced recommendations, in case the problem was my selection of components. It is also very possible that I'm misusing these components.
