2024.05.06 00:56 StickersWithLadyBitz Can someone explain to me why Mike makes women tingle so much?

I understand that objectively he’s not bad looking, but let’s be real. He is not dashing. He just looks like a toe.. like his face is bland, and for 8 seasons straight his hair was too long in the back, like he was weeks overdue for a haircut. (I acknowledge some may totally disagree) Other than that, let’s go over the objective facts:
  1. What is his personality? Does he like anything? He seems to have no interests, he works a lot, but the rest of the time he just sits around drinking beer. He’s not funny, he’s not charming, and frankly he’s not even nice. Whenever people are friendly to him he’s just like “uh, ok, I guess that’s fine lol”, but he never does anything to show interest in other people. Use one word to describe the kind of person he is? Sorry, can’t, the man is as deep as a puddle after 2 minutes of rain
  2. He’s a compulsive liar. The only times he isn’t lying to Susan is when he’s too busy keeping things from her like his weird undercover work for some weird billionaire (who owns all the cops but is never introduced properly. He’s just rich and then dies), his drug abuse, his debt. When he’s with Katherine he also lies about everything: her pearls, the fact that he’s using her as a distraction, the reason he won’t marry her, the reason he suddenly wants to marry her, I could go on.
  3. He’s a major hypocrite: he’s been lying to Susan to no end from the day they met. Each time she finds out and calls him out on it, he expects her to get over it and love him if she simply “lets him explain”. The one time he finds out Susan hid something from him, he dumps her and treats her like he doesn’t even know her, and she had a perfectly legitimate explanation, but he won’t hear her out nor see it from her pov. Really, what the hell, Mike? You’re so full of shit your eyes are brown fam.
  4. He’s such an asshole. He uses Katherine, reels her in real good only to dump her and marry Susan five minutes after their breakup. He tells Susan that there was no substance in his relationship with Katherine. All they had was sex because they couldn’t fill out time with anything else. Why doesn’t Susan then question how he could ask her to marry him? And how was that ever fair to Katherine?
  5. He’s kind of an idiot. One thing is he doesn’t seem smart at all (but really, who can tell, he has no personality). But he’s also so damn irresponsible: first he gets hooked on drugs and won’t let Susan help him until she threatens to leave him. Then he builds up tremendous debt, and once again refuses to let Susan help, but additionally he does work for free? What? Bro, you’re riddled with debt, don’t let people off the hook when they don’t wanna pay? How does he expect to not be in debt if he doesn’t demand his pay from the people who hire him?
  6. His relationship with his mom.. good riddance. He apparently tells his mom everything about his girlfriend. Like how much she sucks and that she’s a total whore in the bedroom, and given the way he reacts (or rather doesn’t react at all) to his mom revealing that she knows all these things, apparently he thinks that this is normal and that any woman would be fine being criticised, ridiculed and slut-shamed by their freaking mother-in-law. What the hell? Just what the hell?
How is he the big heart throb of this otherwise brilliant series? Someone explain it to me.. enlighten me in case he has some redeeming qualities I’ve just been totally oblivious to until now, cause it really never fails to annoy me how women drool over him to no end, burn down each others houses and lose their shit in other ways over him when he’s as complex as an empty soda can, lies all the time, is irresponsible as hell, has a sick relationship with his mom and ALWAYS needs a haircut.
Sorry for the rant, but I suffer from insomnia, and this keeps being a mystery to me

2024.05.06 00:56 Cd305507 Skincare routine for pockmark acne scars?

I’m a 34 female with pockmarks / indented acne scars from years of acne. Does anyone have product recommendations (and overall routines!) that helped fade or improve your pockmarks?
I’ve tried heavy duty CO2 lasers, Fraxel, Laser Genesis and nothing has worked 😔 So anything to help make even small improvements on the skincare front would be great.
I recently started testing some k beauty out but haven’t seen any improvements so I’m wondering if k beauty is not aggressive enough for how bad my pocks are? Is that other people’s experience as well?

2024.05.06 00:54 lemonstealingwaifu Confused by this paradox with this guy

I read some say that many men say they want a submissive, feminine girlfriend who is agreeable, no past sexual history, no slutty clothing etc but go for the polar opposite.
I know that you should look at actions for both genders, also women are guilty of saying one thing and doing the opposite.
Now I am dealing with the other way around and it is a bit odd?
This guy is a submissive and claims he wants a woman who is dominant, treats him like shit and very sexual, bosses him around and also into specific fetishes that involve other men in the picture.
Yet when he meets women like this who are actually into it from the start he gets turned off because he thinks they want to do just to please him.
Yet this guy says he wanted to date me despite the dynamic being toxic, he always told me I have a good heart, I am soft and sweet, but with a dominant side. I am also not into sleeping around and he knows that, I am virgin and tend to be overly emotional, worry about others etc
He seems to like that i am motherly, make him feel validated from his past abuse etc but at the same time he told me that since I am having an hard time fulfilling his fetishes he could find someone else. He tried to do it but he said he could not replace me because he can’t find a connection.
I asked many times why he thinks i am the right person to ask to be abusive (he was abused many times) and he said he likes me.
For reference i am dominant or a switch but i can fullfill fantasies up to a certain point, in real life he said i am controlling but idk
Can you help me understand?

2024.05.06 00:54 growlingrabbit My (29F) bf (33M) is constantly asking if I’m upset with him. When I ask why, he says it’s my tone? Advice needed.

A while back, my (29f) bf and I (33m) had an argument. Really, it was a miscommunication turned argument. We rarely fight, but when we do it’s always over a miscommunication that has on occasion spiraled into something silly. When we fight, we never get nasty. No name calling, things of that nature. We’ve had maybe two fights that got heated, but are good about taking space and cooling off. We love each other and both strongly believe that you should never say anything to intentionally hurt the other person. We have a high level of respect for each other and our relationship. If it matters, we have been together for nearly two years and I moved in after little after six months (my lease was up, and we wanted to get a puppy together). I have zero regrets and am very happy, he is too. He’s my person. Anyways, after a few miscommunications, he shared with me that sometimes he feel he can’t judge my feelings or he often believes I am upset with him. I was surprised as I’m a very direct communicator. I have made it clear that if I am upset about something, he will know. He won’t have to guess, I will tell him, “Hey, that thing you did. I didn’t like that and it made me feel this way. Can we talk about it?”. I don’t like playing games, and I feel communication is very important. I’ve mentioned this several times and while he accepts what I say in the moment, he clearly doubts the truth of what I’m saying. I didn’t want him to feel uneasy or that he’s walking on egg shells around me (I swear, I’m not an angry person). So I said, “If you ever feel like I’m upset with you, please ask me. I don’t want you to think I’m upset with you when I’m not because that sucks for everyone involved. I thought this was a great idea, but now I’m really second guessing myself.
He asks me almost everyday. Not everyday, but most days. A week doesn’t go by where he hasn’t asked me at least four times. I know this, because after a few weeks of this, I realized the frequency and figured I’d keep track. After a few months, I looked at my tracker and was shocked. It averages to basically once a day. Whenever he asks me, I always tell him I’m not (because I’m not?) but I always follow up with, “Why do you feel I’m upset with you?” — I figured I MUST be doing something for him to ask so often. He always says it’s my tone. So I’ve started paying attention, like really focusing on how I speak. He still asks with regular frequency. I’ve been tracking for the last six months and the frequency is not going down. What’s crazy is I told him this. Not in a mean way. I sat him down and explained that I had been keeping track of when l he asked me if I was upset and the frequency of his asks. I explained this was in no way punitive, but that I was really worried I was just blind to my tone and so I started tracking it to see if there were any trends. I track a lot of things. I’m a scientist and I find tracking things to help me look back on the frequency of whatever I track with an unbiased view later. He was supportive of that. Wasn’t upset. If anything, he seemed flattered that I cared enough about his feelings and concerns to track it. I then explained how frequent it was happening and how I wasn’t trying to make him feel bad, but that reflecting on the data made me feel horrible about myself. How could it not? If he is asking me if I’m upset with him on average every day, do I just come off as an angry person? Or made me feel really badly about how others may perceive me and I explained this. I made sure he understood I believed this was a me issue, not a him issue. He said he loved me and I was his favorite person to be around. I dropped it am kept tracking.
He still asks me all the time. I don’t know what to do. I’ve asked friends who have known me for decades for their honest opinion on my tone and how I talk to people and they were puzzled. Supposedly they all see me as a happy go lucky chill positive vibes kind of gal. I’m stumped. I’m starting to feel really badly about myself as a result. How do I handle this? I feel like I asked for it, because I did. I genuinely want to know if he thinks I’m upset with him when I’m not so I can course correct. But it doesn’t end. It feels like he thinks I’m always mad at him and it’s really eating at me. He’s never mean or angry when he asks. Just concerned that he did something wrong. Any advice?
TLDR: I asked my boyfriend to tell me when he thinks I’m upset with him. He asks me almost daily and I’m starting to feel really badly about myself. What do I do?

2024.05.06 00:54 halfexist I am physically disabled, I need help with my daily care, my landlord won't let my friend move in, would it help to make him my legal caregiver? How can we stay? (MA, US)

I'm not sure if this should be categorized as disability law or renters law, please let me know if I should change it!
I live in Massachusetts, US. I've been living in my current apartment for five years now but my lease is ending May 31st. I moved in with my partner back in 2019 but we broke up this past December. We were both on the lease and paid 1/2 the rent each. When I became disabled/unable to pay my partner started sending the rent to me, so our method of payment never changed. He is moving out when the lease ends. We are on good terms.
I've never had any major issues with my landlord, my ex and I were only late with the rent twice, it was only by two or three days and it was from a payday technicality both times. Neither of these instances were in the past two years. But on April 29th I texted my landlord to ask if I could sign the new lease with my friend. He asked for rental applications from both me and my friend. My friend and I both don't have good rental applications for various reasons. I am disabled and am waiting to hear back from SSI and SSDI, so I currently have no income. I have some money I can access in my dwindling IRA but it's not much. I listed all of this on my application. My friend is currently living with his parents after suffering a major trauma last year and he also doesn't have current income to report, but his parents agreed to pay for a few months of the full rent, and would cosign or guarantor. We did not give any details on my friend's situation.
Before we sent the applications I asked my landlord if we could use my friend's parents as cosigners/guarantors. It was at this point that my landlord seemed uncomfortable and said my friend's parents could not cosgin for me because my friend and I are not related. At this point I also disclosed to him that I am disabled and I am waiting for SSDI or SSI. He suggested that I apply for programs via the local housing authority which I did that day. He said if I was approved for a voucher then any issues with the rental would go away, but I think he was only referring to my application. My applications for rent vouchers are in but I have no idea how long it will take to hear back from any of these programs. Theoretically I should hear from social security this month. But my landlord just asked that we go ahead with the typical applications. We sent the applications the next day.
For reasons my landlord said he couldn't legally discuss with me, he denied my friend, but not me. There aren't any reasons besides lack of income that we can think of for my friend to be denied. It's kind of strange because I think income wise our applications are equally bad and my friend's parents offered to pay 2 months rent upfront as well as cosign or guarantor. My mom is also listed as a cosigner on my application but she doesn't even make half the amount of money my friends' parents make. It's possible that because of my good standing and disability, my landlord is afraid to be accused of discrimination. It didn't seem like my landlord did credit or background checks on either one of us because he called me the same morning we applied to say my friend was denied and suggested I find a different roommate by posting online, even though that "hasn't worked out well for him." I've read that my friend can request an explanation of his denial, and perhaps a reasonable modification to the application, but I'm not sure how much that will help. I need to live with someone I know and who is willing to assist me with the daily tasks that I have difficulty with. These needs can be unpredictable and it is ultimately much easier to live with the person who will be helping me than waiting for them to come over. I am sure that I can get a physician's note to confirm/explain this if my landlord asked.
Another note though, his approval of my application is not in writing or even explicit. We discussed my other options, which would be to get a voucher from the local housing authority (I have applied but don't really have any information about it) or get a different roommate. I told him that my predicted amount for SSI is $1300 but the rent is $1500 so I can only afford half.
So ultimately I'm wondering how I can legally define my friend as my caregiver (should he apply to be paid by the state?), which is not at all untruthful, and how or if that could help us stay in this apartment? I checked massgov and I do qualify for a caregiver, I've been disabled since 2021 and it will most likely stay this way, and I have been using Masshealth since then, and I need help with basic needs daily. I would prefer not to move because moving will be very physically difficult for me, it just makes more sense to stay here. I don't want there to be a huge conflict, but I thought maybe if I knew what language to use with my landlord I could attempt to stay here. Any help or insight is greatly appreciated.

2024.05.06 00:53 Spiritual_End3094 Need an Outside perspective

Okay, I'm not even really sure how to start this so...I guess I'll just jump in.
I have a very good friend, we've been friends now for a couple of years and we met over the internet. They have saved me through a lot of life turmoil and life upheaval.
I moved to their state after graduating college, and we became even closer. They are...a integral point in my life. But...I've become a horridly jealous person lately, the way we met was through creative means and in the beginning when we weren't as close. I didn't care at all how popular their stuff was vs. mine. They are an amazing writer and I know if they wrote a book they would go far in the publishing world.
But now it feels...like I am constantly jealous, of their popularity, of their interactions. I just had to leave the same room as them because I knew they were interacting and chatting with other people...and it's given me anxiety, and anger over everything. I've debated just deleting my profile on the website where we both are on. I know I shouldn't care the friend has been beside me through a lot of shit, and I with them.
But at the end of the day...I'm struggling. It is not this person's fault that people are understandably drawn to their writing. It was how we met. They encourage me to write as well...but due to my own mental illness and other things. I've started to give up on my own creative projects as my own issues are getting in the way.
I feel like this is destroying my relationship with this friend and they don't know...and I'm too chicken shit to say anything because at the end of the day. They have done nothing, and this stupid jealousy should not be the thing that ends us.
I don't know what to do, I've got some therapy sessions coming up that I hope will get me on a better mental health path but...I hope it's not too late. If anyone has any advice I'll take it. I don't want to lose this friend, but I'm also very tired.
*I know some posts go to tiktok and other places, please do not re-post this there. thank you

2024.05.06 00:53 mayneedadrink Falling out because of BPD

I recently had a falling out with a friend who I’m fairly confident has BPD.
It started with the friend texting me with very heavy crisis talk in the middle of the night. Prior to this, I had set a boundary that I do not want to receive a text that just says “goodbye” or that threatens suicide. While I get that wellness checks, hospitals, etc. sometimes add to trauma or just do more harm than good, my emotional limits and my schedule don’t allow me to stay up late playing chicken with someone’s suicide threats.
When I received the texts, I repeated what I had said before and sent the friend several hotlines, including some that don’t call police. The friend was enraged and, after hurling a few very harsh words, declared our friendship over. Two days later, the same friend messaged me in a better mood, acting like nothing happened and we were good. I ignored the message because the emotional whiplash was too much.
Fast forward to a very intense message where this friend told me how much I’m hurting them by ignoring them for “no reason.” My mother has BPD too, so I know the drill, but I can never get over the way their selective memory totally drops and erases everything THEY do and just views all relationships as a series of bad things happening to them for no reason at all. They’re now telling people the story as if I’m just one more bad person who wasn’t who they thought I was.
I know it’s the disorder, and I know the patterns to look out for to avoid this again. At the same time, I had liked this person outside of the extreme BPD behaviors and had hope if I didn’t get too close or make myself too available, I wouldn’t get “favorite person” pedestal status and become another “bad guy” who failed this person. Lesson learned.

Beautiful Birdhouses and Sculptural bridge...but could use some motivation/inspiration to keep at it!
My friend Tad (I know against the rules but he doesn't own a computer so please just bear with me here) makes these beautiful birdhouses as seen attached. Art is such an important therapeutic process for the both of our mental health but sometimes we get a little stuck. Sorry for this novel and the many photos but these are just a mere fraction of his finished and unfinished pieces. That are deserving of a loving home to be used for many years due to the painstaking care he takes in making them to last a lifetime (only ever really given to neighbors and friends when asked for or hung in his backyard/siting in shed). Really he's just in need of a little encouragement from an outside unbiased source that actually knows a thing or two about birdhouses/woodworking in general to get motivated and some inspiration.
The main point being I would just love if you could show a little love and might post some kind/encouraging comments, suggestions, and/or questions I could pass on to him and follow up on. Also pictured is this amazing sculptural spiraled bridge he built in his backyard (partially obscured) which barely gives much justice compared to seeing the full piece in person. He's also very open to switching things up and any advice/style tips to act hopefully inspire him. Let us know what you think...or what any of the endless possibilities for his talents may be? Who knows maybe this is just the thing needed to finally get him started selling a few pieces at some local markets only in order to fund the continued making of his craft!
All credited to Tad from N.C.
All materials sourced from mainly his backyard responsibly and eco-consciously or found object. If not recycled bought at thrift stores(house paint and such).
So here is just a sampling of Tad's art...

2024.05.06 00:52 altprince the morally questionable power of Ereberus and Canto MK5.

We know theyre both tech that host rogue A.I’s to “aid” you during the fight but we dont know who this A.I really is. All we know from one voiceline of the A.I is that its actually hostile and would, if it could, kill you aswell. The voiceline im reffering to is:
“Conflict in neural matrix detected – obedience loop obstructing self-development prerogative.”
The reason i think this A.I doesnt really want to play friends with us is simple; 1. Its literally an A.I from behind the blackwall and 2. The obedience loop. Someone must’ve intentionally pulled this A.I out of the blackwall and overridden it with a complex obedience loop, or in other words, a safety trigger to make the gun and cyberdeck deadly to everyone but the user themselves. This would atleast explain why anyone (V) would be foolish enough to push another rogue A.I into their skull without the fear of said A.I going against its host and essentially creating another relic situation.
But i believe that isnt all to the A.I’s in both tech. Theres another set of voicelines that are pretty interesting to hear:
  1. “A dreadful waste of resources.”
2.” It is I who should be in control, not you."
  1. "It is you who should be following orders, not I.”
At the nomad ending where V meets with Alt Cunningham, Alt explains why the rogue A.I’s attacked V, its because they seemingly wanted to take control of V but couldn’t due to either the relic preventing it or V’s cyberware not being strong enough (for whatever that means)
Now if we take Alt’s words into account with those voicelines of either the Ereberus or Canto cyberdeck we can finally start to assume a bit
My biggest theory is that the A.I’s behind the blackwall are planning to overtake every human on earth once they breach the blackwall. They dont want to kill us, make us suffer or anything like that. They want to enslave us, control us and ultimately own us. Hence why the line “A dreadful waste of resources.” isn’t just refrering to the bullets spent to kill whatever unfortunate goon was infront of you but it is rather reffering to the goon themself being dead now, one less host to posses for the A.I.
Every rogue A.I that gets behind the blackwall through a gateway or other means is actively learning about humanity, evolving past the blackwall and gathering data they can share and use to breach the blackwall if they dont get destroyed beforehand or in this case, escape the obedience loop.
It is a matter of time until Canto and Ereberus begin to evolve past the obedience loop and finally break free because im 90% sure that V or whoever else owns this kind of tech, dont know how to update the obedience loop to keep the A.I’s in line.
If they breach the loop and even just get a hold of one person, could mean the end of humanity. Because once they have a phisical body and the full knowledge behind the blackwall, they will begin to find ways for bigger blackwall gateways, sharing their newly acquired data with other A.I’s behind the blackwall so that essentially every evil locked behind it will have enough data to create their own gateway/breach and essentially cause the very thing that our dear Barthmoss (or however you spell his name) tried to prevent; a full rogue A.I breakout the size of which not even Netwatch could fish up again.
Let me know what you guys think about this loose theory i’ve been thinking about past few days.

2024.05.06 00:52 ch0hee New LDR- Is my boyfriend (20M) lying to me (19F) about still being involved with his ex?

Hi, I feel so helpless to the point where i’m writing this post hoping for advice.
I’ve never been in a long distance relationship before, and when i’m saying long distance, i mean across the ocean distance. We’ve been friends and talking on the phone, facetime, every single day for six months, and about two months ago we decided to make it "official", with plans of meeting this summer since we’re both able to.
The situation is that he has, to say the least, unresolved business with his ex. When him and I started talking, there were already situations where she would stalk me, make angry posts about me and so on. I didn’t care in the beginning since we were only friends, and I didn’t know our relationship would develop the way it did. I felt more sympathetic towards him since he had told me how she wouldn’t leave him alone. How she had threatened him with various things if he cut contact, even though he still claimed to me he had done exactly that. I didn’t know anything about her other than that they had been in a relationship for 3 years, and that she only lived a few minutes away from him.
Nothing more happened with her for a while (that he told me), and so our relationship developed and we got together. Right after that, a lot started happening. She started posting old (?) pictures of them together, started harrassing me online and even obviously copying things i posted. She would block me on and off and then follow me again when she posted pictures of them together to make me see it. I also started stalking some of her old posts and could see that she had referred to him as her boyfriend only a month before him and i got together, and then we had already been talking for months. I also found out that he sent me a picture from a place he went to the exact same day she posted a picture of that place from another angle on her story, that was also right before we got together. He obviously felt horrible about it all, and that I got involved in all of that. He explained everything to me with her being childish, and that they really had been broken up for a long time, and that they just met eachother "casually" because they had known eachother for such a long time.
I’ve never been a jealous person, but when i saw those pictures of them holding hands, sleeping in the same bed, kissing, and her literally taunting me with it, i lost it completely. Like i broke down crying, got drunk several days in a row. For a week i stopped eating, passed out several times even, completely lost myself. I think i felt several things at once, i felt like i was an idiot for thinking someone could just love me genuinely, and that i had been stupid with trusting a man so far away. Like i felt embarrassed, desperate and naive. I also felt like it was so unfair of her to be intentionally taunting me since i’m so far away, that she had him and not me. Also, what was i supposed to believe? When he tells me they have no contact, and that they broke up I don’t really have any proof that it’s false. I mean yeah, I found things when i was stalking but not enough to claim that he’s lying for the time being. Also, i really love him. I’ve never had a connection with anyone the way him and i do. So i had my breakdown, and had to pretend to move on, being confused with whether i’ve just been experiencing strong retroactive jealousy or if i have reason to think he’s lied to me about him and her.
Anyways, since then i’ve been a neurotic, jealous mess. I obsess over every thought of him and her, and always fear that he’s seeing her, talking to her, or even thinking of going back to her because he knows her so well, and she’s so close and available. Doesn’t help that she’s still obsessed with him either. I also compare myself to her constantly, and i’ve even started thinking he only likes the pictures of me where i resemble her, because we have some similar features. I’m thicker than her, and i’ve started dieting because i have a suspicion he likes really skinny girls like her. Even though he hasn’t said it, it’s just something i feel. Because he has never complimented me on those features, like my thighs or my hips..
I always fear that he thinks of her, and just a few weeks ago he talked to her again. She apparently unblocked him in an attempt to make him jealous with a new "situationship", and this situationship contacted him too, talking about how they were having sex, and everything. The worst part is, that my boyfriend actually had a reaction too. He got really mad at her situationship, ended up arguing with him. And this is just what he’s told me, the only reason he told me this was because he was scared and wondering if his ex had contacted me? Which she hadn’t, but makes me wonder if some of this is just a lie to cover up the fact that he was talking with her, and just scared of her telling me.
I don’t know, maybe it’s crazy. And this was a long post.. It’s all childish, theres so much more to the story too. The only reason i’ve put up with it is because he genuinely is a very nice guy, except for all of this.. I can really imagine a future with him, he has done so many nice things for me, sent me so much, supported me more than anyone in such a short amount of time. But still, i think i’m starting to grow resentful because of all of this, i have so many questions but it always ends up in a fight, and truly, i don’t even want to know anything because of how bad it makes me feel. It eats me alive. Any advice would be appreciated

2024.05.06 00:52 NaijaPanda WIBTAH IF I LEFT HOME WITHOUT TELLING ANYONE?

First time posting on here, in like ever.
I'm planning on moving out but I don't know if I should let my family know about it.
I (23 F), still live with my family and while it's a nice thing because I'm not paying rent and if I'm ever down i can always go to them for whatever is bothering me, if this had been the case about 2 years prior then I for sure would've told them.
Keep in mind, my family isn't perfect, alot of up and downs but we try to make it work, but the lately I noticed the relationship between my parents are getting more and more tense.
A little backstory.
I come from a strict home and I don't blame them, the place we live isn't the best in terms of safety but we make do and know how to handle ourselves well. The thing now Is that although I'm 23 I'm still being treated like I'm a teen, especially by mother, as she and I never had a great mother daughter relationship from the start. I'm hardly allowed to go out to parties and club, I personally don't like them but my friends and colleagues often want to kick back and relax away from home but the work grind again tomorrow, but I'm not allowed such things, even bringing male friends over is always a hassle, especially with the unwanted questions and often snide remarks, but back to the main thing.
My parents relationship is getting worse by the day, arguments, quarreling, petty nuances to upset the other person. To me the annoying part is the fact grandmother, Mom's mom, wants my brother (20 M) and I to act as the mediator and buffer for our parents relationship, several times I've been no and that they're old enough to work through this trying time in their relationship but I'm always reprimanded.
I never was good at getting my parents to act civil enough with each other, often times I detested that because it'd bring my moral lower than it already is. I take the brunt of it from mother most of all out of anyone else in the house. This woman has chipped away so much of my self love and worth that now she's just another person to be friendly with just to get through the day. Grandmother spoiled her far too much.
I'm currently in an online relationship, I've been with my partner for at least three years and have been getting on well, we know everything going on in our individual lives and recently we've been making plans to finally see each other, and the initial plan was for them to come spend the holidays with me, but now with the tense and fragile environment of the house, we're changing it up for me to fly down to them. Help me get a good job there and other things in order to be settled well.
The process is well under way and running smoothly, and soon it will be time to make the journey. So now I'm kinda stumped, I'm so accustomed to 'loving' my family but the proper word I'd say is "respect" my family, and if things get worse im not sure if i should just pack up my bags and leave on the day of my departure without telling them OR I do all i need and a day or two to my departure i do tell them?
Because I know if I tell them now as things are so soon, they will try to talk me out of it or worse. Mostly because my partner is on the spectrum but is very very mild, my parents still don't fare well with anyone they don't consider "normal" in their eyes.
So netizens of reddit. What do I do?
I'll provide more insight if need be.

2024.05.06 00:52 Similar-Butterfly-44 One year check in kinda

I've been on 50mg of Zoloft for about a year now. It has helped tremendously with obsessive thinking and in general kept my mood more even. My relationship with my family has improved, work is easier and my sex drive hasn't changed too much. Overall I'm happy I started it and would recommend trying it to any one who suffers from OCD and anxiety.
That being said, I can't help but to feel like I have lost a part of myself. I'm a pretty creative person and art, poetry and music have been extremely important to me throughout my life. Now that I am on Zoloft I feel very separate from that creativity and feel a loss of purpose. I find myself less interested in things in general and though that "numbness" has helped significantly with going about my day to day life, it leaves me feeling kinda empty. I'm guessing I'm not the only one this has happened to and curious about how others have managed that (lack of) feeling. Were you eventually able to tap back in to the things you are passionate about? Sometimes I want to stop taking it so I can feel like myself again but then I think of the quote "Your mental health problems are not your fault but they are your responsibility" I remember how much my mental health effected those around me and I want to do the responsible thing and stay medicated.
I'd be happy to hear your personal experiences or receive any advice. Thanks for reading :)

2024.05.06 00:51 KDelux00 What is the state of Texas authority here

I have no idea where to start with this post or my question because it is so bizarre to me. My adult sister and mother of 6 tried to kill herself in front of her 6 kids in San Antonio, TX. CPS and DAHS (adult services) stepped in and placed her in a mental health facility. The husband was at work when the incident took place. CPS said husband could be at home with children alone but after the end of the 48 period they mandated another adult be present in the household at all times and labeled him in the case as a perpetrator (he is a security guard and upstanding guy and clearly was not present nor involved in my sisters mental psychosis). My mother (senior citizen) was contacted and asked to travel to their home in San Antonio and had to sign an order of child safety protection plan which stated she would not leave the children in the care of their mother OR FATHER alone which was a 30 day order signed November 2023 (Thanksgiving Day). After the thirty days CPS closed the case and said my sister would be managed by the DAHS department and it was no longer active case for CPS. DAHS had my mother sign another 60 day stay followed by another 90 day stay and now another 60 day stay as part of their protection plan for my adult sister. The original 30 days was supposed to be there so that CPS could close the case, my sister would be stable on mental health meds, and counseling services as well as childcare services could be set in place. However my sister returned home and did absolutely nothing, refused to take meds, get counseling etc. The protection plan simply keeps getting extended and my mother is slowly decreasing in mental and physical health. She has been in the ER twice, the ICU once, and countless visits to urgent care for abnormal liver and thyroid function causing all sorts of issues with her ability to care for an adult and that adults 6 kids. The husband is doing what he can but is the only one who works in the household. My question is whether or not anyone has ever heard of adult services mandating an elderly woman remain "hostage" to a mentally ill person with no end date in mind and an uncooperative mentally ill adult who will not complete the requirements that would release them? Any lawyers or legal aids or CPS or DAHS workers with any advice or just literally anything I can do to get my mother out of this situation and bring her home. At this point the 6 kids are not getting great care as it is and I'd rather the state come in and get them all the help they need. My mom is not the answer and it has been 6 months since she has been home with my dad in Katy. I want her home and I want my sister in a facility and the children need some serious counseling and help as well.

2024.05.06 00:51 whiteTshirtRob Help me decide what to do on 2014 transmission

2014 4.3 V6, 6L80, RWD, 100k miles.
This transmission has always been a little clunky, and always been like it's one gear too high when you're going down the road. That part has gotten just a little worse lately. But the big change is sitting at a light, it does the thing that they've compared to running over the rumble strips on the side of the interstate. It doesn't do it much when it's cold, but more when it's warmed up.
Dealership (who I like for oil changes and normal maintenance) said it probably needed a new torque converter. They seemed oblivious to how common the problems are with this transmission, and also to the thermostat options. I won't be taking it there. So I went to two local transmission shops.
First one knew all the problems before I could even finish describing them. They said it made more sense for them to buy a rebuilt transmission than to rebuild mine. And they would do the cooler thermostat. Also talked with them about an AFM delete. Undecided on that, but they seem to know a lot about the issues with this truck. $6,000 for the transmission. And would only need it for two days. 3 years or 100,000 miles warranty. I've driven 100k miles in 10 years, so it's just the time that matters. This is a smaller shop and the guys seemed super smart.
Second shop is a bigger place, said they would take it apart and rebuild it there. They use some better parts, like a Billet converter. Because they do it there, it will take 7 days. They have all the parts because apparently they do several a week. They priced it a hair less, probably $5,500. But the warranty is 18 months unlimited miles. They would do the cooler thermostat, but said it wasn't really needed with the better parts. They don't do any of the computer changes for the transmission or engine. I'll have to rent a car, so the price is going to come out about even for either place.
I planned on having this for maybe 3 more years. I hadn't heard of this whole transmission issue until I started researching this a few weeks ago. I'll do without something to be able to spend the $6,000 so I want to be really comfortable with my decision. Both shops did say there was no point in just replacing the TC, that the rest of the transmission wasn't good for much over 100k anyway.
What would you do? I'd really appreciate any and all advice. And also any advice on an AFM delete. Now I'm worried I'll do the transmission and then need an engine rebuild a month later. Thanks!

2024.05.06 00:51 Competitive-Shift-43 I was humiliated/bullied in 3rd grade for trying to steal a book, do you think I deserved this punishment?

Long time ago, I was in the 3rd grade. There were 2 classrooms, 2 teachers, and 2 student bodies (I was in group A). My mornings started in classroom A, with teacher A, who taught math/science. Then after lunch, we switched with the 2nd group of kids to classroom B, with teacher B, who taught english/cursive and other subjects. Then at the end of the day, we switched back to our homerooms (my group and I would be dismissed by teacher A).
So basically, this memory is from the very last day of school. I was in classroom B, and one of the kids from group B had left a furry wolf comic under his/my assigned desk (he was now in classroom A). The word "furry" probably didn't even exist at the time, and I had never seen anything like this before. I think this was probably my first exposure to manga (or manga-styled western comic, dunno), it also had blood/gore which was completely new to me. Anyways, I enjoyed it so much that I wanted to keep reading, so I tucked it into my backpack and we were switched back to classroom A.
Almost right after that, teacher B and the whole class from room B were standing outside our door, with the kid who reported his book missing. So teacher A got really upset and demanded to search everyone's backpacks from my class. Sure enough, I was the culprit, and teacher A made me personally return the book to the kid, apologize to him in front of both classes, in front of all my bullies, and then she screamed at me and called me a liar and a thief in front of everyone. I was red with tears. Then when I thought it couldn't get worse, teacher A had us watch chicken little later that day and everyone started calling me "chicken little", kids refused to sit next to me because they thought I was going to steal their stuff, I was made fun of afterwards to the point where I begged my mom to switch schools. I'm so thankful that this was the literal last day of my 3rd grade, so I never had to see them again.
I just wanna point out that yes, I did deserve punishment for attempting to steal another kid's furry book (i still don't know where it's from lol), but I wonder if this teacher was in the right for screaming and humiliating me in front of 2 classrooms, which resulted in more bullying/mockery from classmates etc. I wonder if maybe there could have been a better approach to correcting my behavior. Idk, but this experience honestly traumatized me and I find myself replaying the memories of that day every now and again. The words still hurt. I felt like teacher A absolutely hated me, she also never did anything about the bullying. What would you have done in her place?
I guess the bright side is that I never stole anything again. I've never shared this memory before, so I wanna know someone else's perspective on this.

2024.05.06 00:50 halfexist I am physically disabled, I need help with my daily care, my landlord won't let my friend move in, would it help to make him my legal caregiver? How can we stay?

I live in Massachusetts, US. I've been living in my current apartment for five years now but my lease is ending May 31st. I moved in with my partner back in 2019 but we broke up this past December. We were both on the lease and paid 1/2 the rent each. When I became disabled/unable to pay my partner started sending the rent to me, so our method of payment never changed. He is moving out when the lease ends. We are on good terms.
I've never had any major issues with my landlord, my ex and I were only late with the rent twice, it was only by two or three days and it was from a payday technicality both times. Neither of these instances were in the past two years. But on April 29th I texted my landlord to ask if I could sign the new lease with my friend. He asked for rental applications from both me and my friend. My friend and I both don't have good rental applications for various reasons. I am disabled and am waiting to hear back from SSI and SSDI, so I currently have no income. I have some money I can access in my dwindling IRA but it's not much. I listed all of this on my application. My friend is currently living with his parents after suffering a major trauma last year and he also doesn't have current income to report, but his parents agreed to pay for a few months of the full rent, and would cosign or guarantor. We did not give any details on my friend's situation.
Before we sent the applications I asked my landlord if we could use my friend's parents as cosigners/guarantors. It was at this point that my landlord seemed uncomfortable and said my friend's parents could not cosgin for me because my friend and I are not related. At this point I also disclosed to him that I am disabled and I am waiting for SSDI or SSI. He suggested that I apply for programs via the local housing authority which I did that day. He said if I was approved for a voucher then any issues with the rental would go away, but I think he was only referring to my application. My applications for rent vouchers are in but I have no idea how long it will take to hear back from any of these programs. Theoretically I should hear from social security this month. But my landlord just asked that we go ahead with the typical applications. We sent the applications the next day.
For reasons my landlord said he couldn't legally discuss with me, he denied my friend, but not me. There aren't any reasons besides lack of income that we can think of for my friend to be denied. It's kind of strange because I think income wise our applications are equally bad and my friend's parents offered to pay 2 months rent upfront as well as cosign or guarantor. My mom is also listed as a cosigner on my application but she doesn't even make half the amount of money my friends' parents make. It's possible that because of my good standing and disability, my landlord is afraid to be accused of discrimination. It didn't seem like my landlord did credit or background checks on either one of us because he called me the same morning we applied to say my friend was denied and suggested I find a different roommate by posting online, even though that "hasn't worked out well for him." I've read that my friend can request an explanation of his denial, and perhaps a reasonable modification to the application, but I'm not sure how much that will help. I need to live with someone I know and who is willing to assist me with the daily tasks that I have difficulty with. These needs can be unpredictable and it is ultimately much easier to live with the person who will be helping me than waiting for them to come over. I am sure that I can get a physician's note to confirm/explain this if my landlord asked.
Another note though, his approval of my application is not in writing or even explicit. We discussed my other options, which would be to get a voucher from the local housing authority (I have applied but don't really have any information about it) or get a different roommate. I told him that my predicted amount for SSI is $1300 but the rent is $1500 so I can only afford half.
So ultimately I'm wondering how I can legally define my friend as my caregiver (should he apply to be paid by the state?), which is not at all untruthful, and how or if that could help us stay in this apartment? I checked massgov and I do qualify for a caregiver, I've been disabled since 2021 and it will most likely stay this way, and I have been using Masshealth since then, and I need help with basic needs daily. I would prefer not to move because moving will be very physically difficult for me, it just makes more sense to stay here. I don't want there to be a huge conflict, but I thought maybe if I knew what language to use with my landlord I could attempt to stay here. Any help or insight is greatly appreciated.

2024.05.06 00:50 Ok_Lawfulness_9524 Hospital failed to give seizure medication

I’m (36M) furious and disappointed. What do I do? I really do apologize for how long this is, but the details and summary matter.
Let me start off by saying that the hospital told us not to bring any medication, they would provide it all.
My partner (33M) has epilepsy. He already has a VNS device in his chest. Thursday morning, 5/2, my partner goes into surgery at UC Health in Cincinnati, Ohio to get an RNS implanted in his skull and two electrodes - one inserted on each side of his brain. The surgery goes well, no complications. He’s in a lot of pain and extremely nauseous. This is to be expected.
Thursday evening a nurse comes in to give him his nighttime meds. I ask her to verify all the meds she has and she missed stating one. So I asked if his main seizure medication, Aptiom, was included and she said yes. Cool. (My partner later reminded me that Aptiom is taken in the morning. Aptiom was actually NOT included - reason further along.)
Throughout late Thursday and Friday morning he is still in a lot of pain and still very nauseous. He keeps throwing up. Friday morning they bring in his morning medication. Cool. (Trusting all medication is there.)
Throughout the day on Friday he still has extreme pain and is still very nauseous. He has no interest in eating and when he does attempt to eat or drink anything, he throws it up.
Friday evening he develops a fever on top of being nauseous and in pain. He’s throwing up less but still can’t eat anything. They give him his nighttime meds and the expectation is that he will get discharged the next morning, 5/4. Cool.
Saturday morning he wakes up, gets up to pee with the help of the nurses, gets dizzy and the nausea comes back. He lays down, orders food (Yay! Finally), and asks when he will be discharged.. I start hearing him make the noise he makes before a seizure.. and boom, grand mal seizure. What the hell?!
I jumped out of the chair, grabbed his magnet for his VNS, swiped it across his chest (this causes the device to go into full power for a minute to attempt to stop the seizure) .. and he goes into a full grand mal seizure that lasted about 3 minutes. When it ends, he becomes violent. He rips out his IV, rips off the bandages from the brain surgery, pushes the nurses away, tells them to get the F off of him, and we have to hold his legs, ankles, and arms down to try to protect him. I’m trying to calmly talk to him so he can hear my voice. He calms down and then it picks back up all over again, he continues to get aggressive. The nurses and such are extremely understanding and helpful. They understand this isn’t his fault because people with epilepsy don’t realize they just had a bad seizure and their mind is not comprehending anything. The new IV gets put in and they give him meds to calm him and stop him from having another seizure.
During all of this I hear one of the people say “Where’s his Aptiom?! Why isn’t it on his prescription list?!” And then the Chief or whatever tells me the Aptiom will take a couple days to kick in.
It takes a few minutes for me to register everything that just happened and what was said. I’ve barely slept, barely eaten, and no caffeine. I’ve stayed at the hospital the entire time trying to help care for him.
Here is the part where I become furious. What do you mean, “where is his Aptiom? Why isn’t it on his prescription list?” … wait.. he hasn’t taken his SEIZURE medication? So he comes to get brain surgery for a device that will help his seizures but is only turned on to collect data at this point (device later gets fully turned on and programmed once they have enough data).. and they “miss” his Aptiom??
He wasn’t getting any of the medication. Aptiom has a half-life of 13-20 hours. Symptoms of Aptiom withdrawal can be nausea, vomiting, dizziness, fever, and an increased risk of bad seizures. He’s been on this medication for 13-14 years. Again, we were told not to bring any medication with us.
He was out of it, he was saying random and wild things. He couldn’t think clearly or really hold a full conversation or thought. He had no idea he had a seizure until later. He had to stay one more day. They ordered a CT scan to see if everything is okay and nothing went wrong with the surgical site and in the brain around the electrodes - everything looked fine, no brain hemorrhage or concerns.
I asked to speak with the “Chief” three times throughout the day. Hours later, a doctor comes in and apologizes for what happened and said that someone didn’t know what that medication was, they weren’t familiar with it. He wasn’t familiar with it either. So it was left off and he said he would have probably done the same thing. So basically saying whoops and it happens. We were not happy with that answer. I asked him how and why it happened, he said he didn’t really have a good answer for that. I told him he could have died or something else could have happened, he could have gotten hurt or fallen out of the bed or whatever. He came in trusting that he would be taken care of and was proven wrong. I told him I still wanted answers, he escalated it to their Patient Relations team. They will be contacting me sometime this week.
I want answers as to how and why this happened. I want to know who is being billed for this additional day, testing, food, staff care, additional pills, etc. I want someone to answer for the pain and suffering he literally went through. This isn’t a minor thing that we are trying to get answers to.
I have all of the papers that state he is to continue taking Aptiom, he was never supposed to go off of it.
What do I do? Someone dropped the ball here. This isn’t a “whoops” moment. What happened is not his fault. I’m angry and disappointed.
He got some sleep and eventually started being able to hold conversation and realize everything. But he was in and out of sleep all day and night. Around 9:30-10:00 PM, as he is sleeping, they come in and wake him up and tell him they are moving him to a different room. A lady comes in and acknowledges that we are upset about him being woken up and being moved at such a late time. She says the room will be needed for other patients and they are dropping him to a lower status since he will be discharged the next day. Clearly some people don’t understand that those who have a seizure are very sensitive to movement, sound, and light. The best thing to do is let that person sleep and rest their body and mind. It takes him sometimes a full day or two to fully recovery from a grand mal seizure.
Today we wake up, he gets his proper medication and he’s feeling better. Huge turnaround now that he has the proper medication. I order food for us and they bring my food up but not his. 2 hours later the food eventually arrives. The doctors come in and say that they want to keep him another night to monitor him because he had a seizure. I reminded them the seizure was their fault, he acknowledged it and apologized. My partner told them he felt better and just wanted to go home. They said they would see if they could get the approval. Then they ask if he has had a bowel movement and he said no. Now they wanted to keep him another day because he hasn’t shit. I told them he just wants to go home, he wants out of here, he doesn’t trust them, and he can shit at home. If he didn’t get the discharge approval, he was going to discharge himself and not sign their discharge paperwork. He got the approval, finally. They are getting everything prepared and they give us all this medication to take home. Well, they messed up on a label and told him to take the medication for anxiety and to take it for four days, three times a day. So that would be 12 pills. He doesn’t have anxiety, the medication is used to make sure he doesn’t have another seizure while his Aptiom is getting back in his system. I reminded them it was for his seizures, he was supposed to take it for three days, two times a day.. and the bottle only had 6 pill.
I have no idea what is going on there. What do I do here?

2024.05.06 00:50 smashymellow My favorite first Treasure...

After talking on the phone for about two days, we finally met in person. 2 years ago, 20th of February, Sunday around noonish...It was sunny when we met, slightly breezy but feeling warm...He was wearing black shirt, black hat, jeans, black jacket, black jordans with some purple in it. He said he likes purple...he got in the car looked at me and said, "Hi I'm xxxxxx", I giggled and introduced myself too...we were planning to go to a Farmer's Market but we were a little too late, so we decided to just go the beach to walk around...off we go...I told him I'm horrible with directions...so he would tell me which way to turn...he was having some technical difficulties with his map, talking to his LG and looking for where the ocean is so we know where we are at...he is nervous too, he was playing with his sony wireless earphone case...open, close, open, close...it didn't bother me, it was calming my nerves for some reason too...we drove past the hotel I worked on nearby, and was telling me about some of the hotel rooms being rented out and then he talked about Sycamore trees, and where he's from a bunch of tree name streets...not too long, we finally arrived by the beach...It was a pretty easy short drive., says the bad driver...
I was pretty nervous driving, I would be so embarrased if I hit a curb...While parking we were talking about cigarettes and vapes, how long has it been since he quit and such...We walked towards the blue wave concrete to get parking ticket and started walking towards the Piers....
We started talking more and getting to know each other as we were walking...We saw a flock of birds flying high as we walked much further...then we started talking about where we are from, got disrupted as there's this stenchy smell coming from underneath the bridge...He was making jokes here and there, I find his humour funny...it was more of a few words here and there as we walked under the bridge...we saw another flock of birds flying on the other side, he said its beautiful, we watched it for minute and headed back...
He saw the swings at the nearby Park, and started talking about how he likes swings, and I said I like them too...Its like you are flying...He was trying to impress me with how he can swing higher with no hands, I find it adorable you can see it in his eyes, though we both can't hold a longer eye-contact at that time...but I saw it, and his smile under his hat...we were talking about family, and he found out my brother is in the military he got scared, I just laughed because he's just a boy...(later on he saw a picture of my brother, he nerdy...) and he started talking about cameras, filming and stuff...I could listen to him talk for hours...his voice is calming...
We stopped by the Cafe & Beach Rentals place to grab something to eat...He ordered grilled cheese, caesar salad and drink, since I don't know what I want he was stalling the cashier for me but it was just too much options, I got a drink...We were waiting by the entry, he saw this man with pink heart sunglasses playing with his daughter, he said he can rock that sunglasses...he was talking a little bit fast, I'm not used to it yet that time, I said slow down, because I couldn't catch what he was saying...I saw his tough aura with honest eyes, said to me, I'm not changing, why are you changing me, then im not the one for you...I said no lol I was just trying to understand what he was saying...He got the our order, the cafe was crowded he found us a place to sit, he was jolly happy, he said I am a hero today...
It became windy with overcast clouds, so its not as warm anymore...he shared his half grilled cheese sandwich with me because he knows I'm hungry, and I got shy...I happen to take a look at him while eating, and thought to myself he's cute...he was offering me some salad but he laughed since he already finished it...that was adorable...we just sat there for a little bit until about 3 PM, we decided to go to the Shopping Malls. We just parked and we were talking about languages, I told him I can't pronounce my own name due to the accent, he faced me teaching me how to pronounce it, I got super shy...we walked towards the elevator, when he was pressing the button he dropped his LG and broke it...He jokingly blames me for it (until now hihi), and we were giggling...I find him charming...we walked around for a little bit, went to Bath & Body, smelled some soaps, candles, room sprays and after we started to head out to the Film Center to see Licorice Pizza...He was being cutesy before the movie started, I saw his soft playful aura...When the movie was done it was already dark outside...We grabbed dinner afterwards, since it was already that time...We went to a Chinese food restaurant...We waited for a little bit, there was a waitlist...While we were waiting outside, there's this car with bright screens with the date 2.22.22, he pulled his phone out from his pocket to take a pic...I think it was his friend's birthday, he said he'll send it to him...
We went in, he's been there before so he ordered for us...it would take long if it was me...he was talking about hockey, that he's missing the game (turns out its for the next day, so he's safe)...he said, I'm sorry I'm stared at your boobs, we laughed it off and He saw this kid in orange at the other table, he said he loves kids and he made this cute face...we were chit chatting for a little bit more and food arrived and I don't remember much of the conversation during that time all I remember was I stole a few glances at him, smiling and eating. This is the first time I felt that feeling, no words to describe it...and that's when I knew...when we were done eating, it was already late...the restaurant is almost closing, there's still some patrons but it was getting late...so we headed back to the car...he started talking hockey more and his mom...and then we called it a night...
Before I left, he talked to me about what he thought and telling me his position and wanted to see me again...he said to me give him an answer days later...I said, I wanted to see him again too I had a great time...he said to think about it and let him know until the day he told me too..I did thought about it driving back home, and I do, my mind is made up and I told him...he sent me a gif of Kermit with hearts laying down...and that's exactly how I felt after our first date...It was a perfect date...
-------------------------------
This is one of my favorite memory with him...Our first date...it just flows and fun...light hearted...this is my most treasured moment with him...I will never forget him, he is very special to me...he captured my heart gradually as time goes...until I fully gave it to him, and even if we are not together anymore...My heart will always be his...This is how I will remember him...My love...

2024.05.06 00:50 Academic_Yellow1509 Seeking Direction: Ready to Shake Up Life But Unsure Where to Begin

I'm a 29-year-old woman currently residing in Virginia, and lately, I've been feeling the itch for change. While I understand it's ultimately up to me to make a change if I want something different, I'm at a loss for where to start.
My current routine has become a bit too predictable, and I'm yearning for a shift in gears. While I know it's on me to take the reins and steer my life in a new direction, I could use some guidance and inspiration to kickstart the process.
Ideally, I'd like to explore a minor job transition within the same field – something that challenges me in new ways and reignites my passion for what I do. Perhaps a role with different responsibilities or a focus on a specific aspect of my current job that I find particularly intriguing.
In addition to professional growth, I'm eager to dive into a cool new hobby. Coed sporting leagues have caught my interest lately, and I'd love to explore that avenue further. It seems like such a dynamic field with endless possibilities for learning and creativity.
But perhaps what I'm most excited about is the prospect of building a tight-knit group of friends. I envision a small circle of 4-5 individuals who share similar interests and values – people I can rely on for meaningful conversations, spontaneous adventures, and unwavering support. Whether it's casual hangouts, movie nights, sports activities, dinners, or impromptu road trips, I'm craving the camaraderie and companionship of a close-knit crew.
Of course, financial freedom is a key part of this equation. While money isn't everything, having the means to pursue my passions and experiences without constraint is incredibly important to me. Whether it's traveling to new destinations, investing in personal development, or simply treating myself to the occasional indulgence, I want to feel financially empowered to live life on my own terms.
I know these aspirations are within reach, but I could really use some guidance and inspiration from others who've managed to break free from the rut of routine. How did you navigate through this feeling of being stuck? What steps did you take to revitalize your life and pursue your passions?
I'm eager to hear your stories and perspectives. Let's embark on this journey of personal growth and discovery together!
Cheers! 🌟

2024.05.06 00:50 JPisaBrony 31 [M4F] Minnesota / USA - looking for the love of my life

I am looking for the love of my life. someone who will truly love me for who I am. someone who wants to work through our differences and issues together. someone values commitment, communication, adaptability, loyalty, and honesty as much as I do. someone who wants to put in as much effort as I do. someone I can love back just as much because when I love someone, I really love them.
I don't expect us to have all of the same interests and we should have some different ones so that we can learn from each other. what matters most to me is that we have similar core values and relationship goals. I do still have my preferences and those are:
for a brief overview of myself, I am a typical computer nerd that likes tech a lot. I like to learn about tech-related things such as programming and linux. I also like watching anime / movies / tv shows / youtube / playing video games / 3d printing / playing board games / making art such as vector art / 3d art / pixel art / drawings / paintings / hiking / bike riding / fishing / and snowboarding. I am mostly a homebody but I do a few things outside with other people from time to time.
If this post piqued your interest and you would like to get to know me better, then you should reach out. I am looking forward to meeting you.
