Cute text messages to send to a girlfriend

Anyone have any idea when the updated Yale lock integration is supposed to go live? I'm currently using the old integration where it sends the guest a long winded message immediately after booking. The new integration is supposed to show the code along with instructions for using the lock right in the Airbnb app. This is currently available for Schlage locks, at least if you've signed up for Early Access, but Yale and August have just shown "Coming Soon" for months. Admittedly the old integration is working fine for us, except one time that it didn't, but the new integration seems much slicker based on the screenshots.

I met a woman through OLD (both looking for LTR and monogamy). It's been a month of texting daily and seeing each other 4x within that month. It would certainly have been more dates but she left for two vacations with family but thankfully we wanted it enough that we managed to keep connected via texting.
Our first date was great and we kissed at the end. Date #2 and #3 was more making out and stopping short of sex. We definitely communicated that we are very attracted to each other and have lots in common and some differences (which we like). Date #4 we had sex and it is clear that we will be doing that again. Every date has been great conversations and slowly revealing our pasts. In my experience, this is a hallmark of a good start.
We are about to go on Date #5 and I would like to tell her that I see a lot of potential in us and will go off the apps and invest in her. I'd also let her know that she doesn't have to do the same but it would be nice if she felt the same way. Is this too soon? Is there an implication that I am forcing her to be exclusive as well? Is there a better way to communicate this? How would you feel if you received this message?
I know only she would know but just looking for some thoughts on my approach/timing...

He left because we had the worst possible fight in history (I take full blame because I took it completely too far and was super toxic during it by disrespecting his belongings and destroying 3 of his things which I will forever regret). I’ve been going to therapy and been practicing meditation to find balance in my emotions and feelings because I would never want to hold in that much anger and explode like that to anyone. After the situation he was very cold and rude to me (which is understandable) in the first few weeks and after a few attempts to talk to him have failed and he seemed very detached, I told him I am just going to have to also detach and move on from him. He ended up sending me 3-4 super long paragraphs about how I wouldn’t be saying that if he would’ve just “packed all his things and moved back” and continued to pour his heart out to me about how damaging the situation was for him. It just seemed like he was mad that I would say I would have to move forward. He definitely made me feel sick to my stomach with his messages because I feel so horrible about my actions and I seen how much he put me first and I completely let him down. That is why I started therapy so I can become a better girlfriend to him and a better person in general, I wouldn’t even do what I did to the next person if there would be one. After that convo, I thanked him for expressing his genuine feelings and apologized wholeheartedly once again and he’s been nice to me ever since. I really do love him with all of my heart and I really want to remove him from his depression since he’s back in his mother’s house and I want us to move forward together from this situation. He still tells me he loves me and I just know if he moves back we would be the strongest we have ever been. 10 year relationship, he’s the only man I’ve ever been with, he’s my first in everything. I would never want to go through this again and I would never in life want him to go through this again. Fuck how I feel, it’s him that I am more concerned about. I really want to make him happy and show him that he means the world to me and I’ll do whatever I can to prove it to him every day he lives here. Would you take that leap of faith with moving back to a place where you wanted to make it a home with someone you love? Is there still hope for us?

My partner ‘48M’ and I ‘32F’ have been together for 3 years. I have only met a few of his friends but we are both introverts. He keeps his work life very separate. About 1.5 years ago I noticed him interacting a lot with a younger girl, early 20s, from his work. He is very active on social media, liked many of her ‘suggestive’ photos and would snapchat her. He said they were just friends. I told him that it made me feel insecure and asked him to limit his communication with her - I asked him not to text her and he agreed and deleted her number. Recently they had a work dinner and he asked to go specifying there were 7 men going. I said sounded great. I saw a message pop up later on his phone that night from her thanking him for paying for her dinner with a kiss face emoji. I was obviously upset because I thought he wasn’t texting her and he lied to me because the dinner was a send off for her leaving the store. He said he didn’t want to tell me for fear of my reaction. He has lied to me in the past about his age, and him not being able to have children - that his son wasn’t biologically his. He restored and showed me the deleted messages and they had been going back and forth, him sending her songs and making flirty remarks since January. He admitted to me he finds her attractive and that she flirts with him at work and he does back. He said that because things weren’t going well with us at the time, because I was sick and very anxious, he liked the flirtatious banter with someone. Since then he has unfollowed and agreed not to speak to her again and attended a therapy session with me agreeing that he had to build up trust again, but she switched to a store that he will eventually be going to as well. Him and I don’t live together and aren’t really progressing in the way I would hope. Am I being insecure and or controlling? Should I move on? I can’t seem to let go of this. TIA

One of my clients offers forestry mulching services and we're transitioning our marketing efforts in-house. We're considering using Pipedrive as our CRM but it doesn't seem to offer native texting options, which is the primary way we interact with customers.
A Pipedrive rep recommended CloudTalk and JustCall for integrations to enable SMS and calling, but both have a significant number of concerning one-star reviews.
I'm looking for recommendations on either:

• Other systems that integrate well with Pipedrive to allow SMS and ideally calling capabilities too, since we also talk to customers by phone.
• Alternative CRM options to Pipedrive that have robust SMS/calling features built-in or via smooth integrations.

Twilio was mentioned in my research as a platform for SMS/calling services that may integrate with CRMs like Pipedrive, but I also saw some bad reviews for that too/have heard it is really expensive (but we don't send a lot of messages so maybe it wouldn't be too bad for us).
I'd greatly appreciate any insights from those with experience using Pipedrive with SMS/calling add-ons, or other CRM systems with those capabilities! Let me know if you need any other info. Thanks in advance.

While looking at whale-related news today, the following article grabbed my attention: N.B. Liberal MP calls for loosened right whale protection measures to help fishermen CBC News
Link: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/n-b-liberal-mp-calls-for-loosened-right-whale-protection-measures-to-help-fishermen-1.7209306
Summary: New Brunswick Liberal MP Serge Cormier has called for a loosening of North Atlantic right whale protection measures to support local fishermen facing economic challenges. The current measures, implemented to protect the critically endangered species, include fishing gear restrictions and area closures. Cormier argues that these regulations are too stringent and harm the fishing industry, suggesting a more balanced approach. Environmental groups, however, emphasize the necessity of these protections to prevent further decline of the whale population, which is already critically low.
This is important news for us Canadian whale lovers. If you live in Canada, please urge your Member of Parliament to take a stand against this idea, and stand with the endangered North Atlantic right whales instead. I have included an email template below, which you can send to your electoral district's MP. Here is a link to a Government of Canada tool to find your local MP: https://www.ourcommons.ca/Members/en
Here is the email template:
Dear Mr./Ms./Mx. [Member of Parliament's last name],
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the recent proposal by Acadie-Bathurst MP Serge Cormier to loosen protection measures for the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale, as detailed in the following CBC article: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/n-b-liberal-mp-calls-for-loosened-right-whale-protection-measures-to-help-fishermen-1.7209306
While I understand the significant challenges faced by our fishermen as a result of these protective measures, I firmly believe that the survival of this magnificent species must remain a top priority for Canada.
The North Atlantic right whale population is already on the brink of extinction, with fewer than 350 individuals remaining. Easing the current protective measures could lead to increased whale entanglements and vessel strikes, further threatening their survival. The consequences of such actions are irreversible and would tarnish Canada's commitment to biodiversity and environmental stewardship.
Additionally, Canada has legal obligations under the Marine Mammal Protection Act to ensure the conservation and protection of marine mammals. Weakening these protections would not only endanger the right whale further but also compromise Canada's adherence to international conservation standards and agreements.
I urge you to oppose any measures that would weaken the protections for the North Atlantic right whale. Instead, I encourage you to advocate for alternative solutions that can both support our fishermen and ensure the continued survival of the right whale. These could include:

1. Investment in Whale-Safe Fishing Gear: Support the development and adoption of innovative fishing technologies that minimize the risk to marine life.
2. Enhanced Monitoring and Enforcement: Strengthen the monitoring of fishing activities and enforce stricter penalties for violations of whale protection regulations.
3. Collaborative Solutions: Foster collaboration between scientists, conservationists, and the fishing industry to develop sustainable practices that protect both the whales and the livelihoods of our fishermen.

The survival of the North Atlantic right whale is a critical issue that requires our immediate attention and action. I trust that you, as a member of the Liberal Party, will stand for the preservation of our natural heritage and oppose any measures that compromise the protection of this endangered species. Our actions today will determine the fate of the right whale and reflect our values as a nation committed to the conservation of our planet's precious biodiversity.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to hearing about the steps you will take to ensure the right whale is safeguarded for future generations.
Sincerely,
[Your Full Name] [Your Address] [Your City, Province, Postal Code] [Your Email Address] [Your Phone Number]
Thank you to everyone who is participating in conservation efforts! I made the very same post on whales. Feel free to repost this on other subs dedicated to whales and conservation to protect our friends!

What does he (26m) want from me? (20f)
Me (20f) and this guy (26m) have been seeing each other for almost two years now. We started sleeping together and he ended it about a month or two in, telling me we both knew it was going nowhere and he didn’t want any feelings developing and hurt coming from it. This was fine, i just continued on with things and didn’t contact him. Then two weeks later we ended up seeing each other again on a night out and he told me he missed me and invited me to stay with him that night which i did. We continued on again for another couple of months, seeing each other often and sending long messages every day. Then I ended up finishing things as he got very intoxicated one night while i was home, rung me and then attempted to drive to my house. I was terrified he would hurt himself or someone else and managed to convince him to go home, which he reacted to rather badly in the state he was in. I texted him the next day and told him we should stop seeing each other because stuff like this cannot happen and he agreed and apologised. Didn’t see each other for two months, bumped into each other again on another night out. He was extremely apologetic, told me how much he missed me and how I was the first girl in a long time he had felt this way about. We ended up sleeping together again, this continued AGAIN for a few months until a massive argument around Christmas. He accused me of seeing another boy which, while that wasn’t the case, I felt was unfair regardless as he never asked me to be his girlfriend and i know for a fact hes at least kissed other girls while doing this with me. We didn’t talk for a few days but we’ve fallen back into this pattern again now of talking all the time and sleeping together after nights out. At this point, I do understand it’s just as much my fault as his but I don’t know what to do anymore. We’ve told each other we love each other but frankly it’s not enough and he freezes up anytime I look for any form of commitment from him. I have never drunk called or texted him and yet he is constantly doing that to me, telling me he dreams about me every night, how I’m the only girl to have this affect on him and things of a similar nature. I just cannot figure out what is going on in his head and he won’t tell me.
TL;DR: on and off again with this boy for two years, he says hes in love with me, consistently comes back to me and yet doesn’t seem to want a relationship. but doesn’t want me in a relationship with anyone else.

This is going to be super long :’) So i (19F) was friends with this guy (20M), (let’s call him Kyle) since 2020. When we met i was going through a breakup and he was in a very serious long term relationship. We became friends pretty quickly but it wasn’t any kind of close friendship, just surface level talking and joking around. Eventually i got with his friend (20M) with whom i broke up pretty quickly and we kind of eventually grew distant.
Years went by and we reconnected again when i was graduating and decided to plan a trip with my friend(let’s call her Katy) to a city where he studies in (he moved to a different country after graduating school). Eventually Katy couldn’t make it and him and i started to talk a lot, facetimes, texts, had each other’s pictures as wallpapers etc. He sent me a huge bouquet of flowers for my birthday since he couldn’t make it (which was pretty sweet :) ) A month later i came to visit him (the trip lasted 4 days) and i swear this was trip was one of the best times of my life. He was so gentle, funny, caring and all of the wonderful things you can think of. It wasn’t lovebombing, he was just absolutely wonderful. We did not sleep together because i have sexual trauma and asked him to take it slow and he was so understanding and kind about it, i’ll never forget it. By the end of my visit he decided to come with me to the city where i live (and well, he used to live) to see his family. So i ask him, “what are we? I really like you and i’m ready to try long distance for you” , to which he said that he didn’t plan a relationship and hoped that i would understand that long distance is difficult but he’d try it as well. So we agree on boyfriend and girlfriend.
on the ride to our home country things turned sour and i noticed he was a little distant, but didn’t give it much notice, everyone has their bad days. A day later he was very avoidant and tells me at a birthday party that he doesn’t want to be together still and wants “a less serious relationship” i felt absolutely horrible. The next few months he texts me once per day and i got fed up and just cut things off.
After some time Katy meets up with him and convinces him to see me to “fix things”. While she did that i told another girl, let’s call her Sasha, that i have this ex that i’ve been thinking about for ages and how much i miss him and how much potential we had. She was very understanding about it and shared her experience with a similar thing. Later on Sasha proposed a social project to me and Katy. We agreed and Katy suggested we invite Kyle to work with us.
Kyle joined us quickly. We started talking and flirting again even though i was a a bit defensive and mad (obviously). He then invited me for coffee to talk. We met and basically to spare you the details he told me than all he wanted was to sleep with me but eventually caught feelings and it made things complicated. i asked if there was a chance to try again and Kyle said that he wasn’t ready and suggested we stay friends. i agreed since i didn’t want to lose him again. What happened next is that Sasha started flirting and talking to him right in front of my nose. I got mad and called her out. She made everyone gang up on me and Katy in the project and we were kicked out. Out of solidarity with Katy (the project didn’t mean to me as much as it meant to her) i blocked everyone including Kyle. It’s been two years and i miss him every day. I don’t wanna betray Katy nor do i think it would be a good idea to text him and share my feelings, so i’m in constant tortures :’)
TL;DR Every day i think about someone who gave me the best days of my life yet eventually ghosted me and was mean to my friend. We’ve been on a no contact for two years, but i still miss him every day. what do i do?

At the fisrt, sorry for my english, i'm a little oxidated, but i'll try my best. (it's not my original lenguaje)
But first, a little of context:
It's an story by 7 years. I did meet my (not still) ex-husband on a convention of Anime, i did in cossplayed by Electra and he was Tony Stark, he was had a girlfriend and I was in a toxit relationship (story i'll tell in other time). But in that day, i swear, i did wish had him, i did fall in love. We talk just a little moment, we take a photograph and we keep going with our lives.
One year latter, when i'd brake up my relationship, i fall down in a horrible depression and 1 try to unsiscribe by the life. I'd try to grow up and join a group of single peopple just search fun. I'd was surprised to find that boy again in that group.
Uno month latter, we'd be in a relationship. After two years, we was marrige. Whitout anything more than love, we start this new stage, in the night of weddings, i got pregnant.
At that moment, i wasn´t know i had anxiety and depression cronique, and during pregnancy it only gets worse, and our relationship wasn't the best, we fight a lot, especially because I felt very unprotected by my partner: when we went out there were men who made bad comments to me and I even had to walk home alone after work, not to mention that there were a couple of occasions in which, due to the times , I could only prepare food and run to work, without eating a bite, to be surprised when I returned that he alone finished the food without leaving me anything.
Added to that, the first four months of pregnancy and marriage, he was without work, I had to take care of the household alone; Added to this, to lighten the burden a little, a relative did us the favor of renting us well below the value he had, his house which was uninhabited. Imagine my shame when he asked for the rent and I didn't have the money to pay because my husband didn't go out looking for work. If they hadn't given him an ultimatum, he would have spent years like this, until he asked for a job at the only company where they don't fire anyone.
All of this caused me to spend the entire pregnancy stressed and worried.
The last straw was the day my baby was born, which coincided with my husband's birthday. I had a complicated birth, in which they had to do an emergency procedure: I was hospitalized for two full days, alone, without eating or drinking anything (For those who don't know, the medical service in Mexico is beyond terrible). Not to make it long, my birth was more than complicated; and my mortification was no less when all my relatives, when they were able to come see me, kept telling me how mortified they were, on the other hand my husband looked like a child at Christmas because they brought him gifts for his birthday, even my best friend from school.
When my baby was born, I was aware that I wasn't feeling well, so I decided to take some time to recover before returning to work. And for those who are wondering, it's not like I had a great job, our economic position was not good at all, but my depression only got worse since my baby was born, the complications of childbirth made me feel terribly guilty just thinking about it. that something could have happened to my baby.
Day after day, even though I did not work and did not contribute financially to the house, I made an effort to ensure that the little money that came into the house was enough for everything: milk, diapers and food. Despite everything, I always made sure to prepare a good breakfast and lunch for my husband to take to work, I got up before him so I could have that attention with him; Imagine my disappointment when he often returned with the food intact from when she prepared it for him and told me that he had preferred to buy something to eat. This only made me feel like I was useless. Added to the fact that on more than one occasion he even left the front door of the house open for us: a woman who had just had surgery and a newborn baby, in a neighborhood where, in open secret, it was hot for organized crime, added to the fact that I I felt insecure around him.
My family kept making comments to me about how bad my husband felt for me, how bad I looked (comments that I questioned, because my family never liked my husband). Despite the bad things, he had his attempts to be thoughtful and considerate (in the wrong way or causing me more problems, but I understood that it was his way of showing that he cared).
This was when I began to understand that my husband was like that, disconnected from reality, it was his shell of protection since he practically grew up in foster homes with "relatives" or "acquaintances", many of them were very violent and mistreated him, making him feel alone and vulnerable. I learned much of this from him, the rest his mother herself came to tell me and the rest was a matter of adding 2 + 2.
When I assimilated this and that the situation would not improve, when my baby turned 9 months old, I decided to look for a job, fortunately I found a way to work from what I studied (because yes, I have a degree), and with very humanitarian bosses. those who didn't even mind me occasionally taking my baby to teach classes with me (because yes, I ended up teaching at a basic level). Thanks to this, the situation at home improved a little, but the arguments did not stop over small things, more than anything everything he did or did not do bothered me. I guess it was because of the exhaustion of dealing with everything alone, and for anyone wondering, no, he practically didn't help me with the baby issues; With the household chores (just washing the dishes and sometimes sweeping the common areas), I took care of the rest, in addition to always making sure the house was safe for a one-year-old baby.
One of the breaking points for me (this occurs in the dark time of the pandemic when we all lock ourselves at home), your company was one of the last to send them to rest, however, since my sector was related to dealing with children, I was one of the first sectors to confine themselves to home, so now I was doing homme office. One morning I realized that the man not only lost the keys to the house, but he took mine to leave, locked them and left them stuck outside the door, leaving me locked in with my baby without the possibility of getting out if anything arose. emergency. If it hadn't been for my father, who came to visit me to see how he was doing, who knows what would have happened. Get an idea of ​​how little he cared about the safety of his family.
These, among other things, added up over the years, until I began to ask him, as a last chance to save our marriage (because at this point, I felt broken and discouraged), I insisted that we seek help, couples therapy or at least individual therapy, but he didn't listen to me or wasn't interested. Until the first time I packed my and my baby's things, he realized that I was serious and that I would leave him, he still didn't want therapy, not even when I was honest with him and told him that there were many things that I couldn't do. forgive him, especially for the pregnancy; What did happen was that he began to collaborate more at home and finally began to take responsibilities with our son.
The facts:
What ended up being the final break was a day of extreme heat, where the weather was useless and there were no technicians operating in the area. My son, now 3 years old, is very hot and in any heat his nose tends to bleed a lot, especially that weekend he was very tired, despite that, the only solution I could think of was to put the pool inside the house ( to avoid having it under the sun), I clarify that at that time we lived in a small two-bedroom apartment, which yes, I admit was an impractical solution but it was the only thing that occurred to me. Even before I did it, I notified him of what I was trying to do, not to ask for permission, but just to notify him so he wouldn't be taken by surprise.
When he got home, he didn't say hello, he didn't say anything, he just left his things and left the house to get a taxi. When I caught up with him to ask him, he said he was going to his mother's house to get an air conditioning unit that he planned to bring to install to solve the problem, to which I gave him my list of problems with it, because we didn't have permission to make modifications to begin with. Thus in the department, adding the amount of electricity it used, transportation, among others. To which he also responded with his list of drawbacks that he saw with my solution. The point is that the argument escalated and ended with him throwing the water into the garden and me locking myself in the room with my daughter, enduring the heat of the day.
Neither of us spoke to each other the rest of the day, in the morning, the first thing I did was pack my things and my baby's things discreetly. I called my parents to tell them what had happened and they were more than willing to receive us (something that did not make me so calm because, yes, one of the reasons why I married him in a hurry was that my parents were a cornerstone of my anxiety and depression).
The next night, with my things packed, I waited for my husband to drop the bomb, tell him that he was leaving with our son, he cried a lot, he begged me for another chance; That time I didn't shed a single tear, not because I didn't love him, despite everything, I followed him and I still love him, but I realized that I was loving him more than I loved me and my daughter. . I didn't cry because I spent years crying alone and falling asleep with tears.
I asked him if he would prefer to end the relationship peacefully, where we could still rescue our friendship, before reaching a point where I couldn't even tolerate seeing him.
That was the only time when he finally said that he would take therapy, but I no longer believed him. I know he did it just to convince me, but in the end he wasn't going to do it. So I decided to leave the next day with my things. It was the last time we talked about it.
At the moment:
We have a year apart, we decided to give ourselves a few months to settle in and calm our spirits. Despite this, we have still kept in touch through our daughter, when it is her turn to visit or when she brings him an errand.
I don't deny that I still love him, and now I'm the one who would like our marriage to be fixed, but he is the first to say that he feels better now.
Now that I am living with my parents, my symptoms of anxiety and depression have not improved at all, on the contrary. I don't know if I ever feel like going back to him was a desperate attempt to get out of my parents' house, because he was the only person who made me feel understood and that there was nothing wrong with being who I was (I did). which has mainly contributed to my mental health), because I clarify, my son has a disability and since his diagnosis, he has not contributed much either, I have been with the support of my family in the face of that, but not with my ex-husband or the his family, so I use practically all of my salary on my son and his basic needs; His father gives me alimony for him, but only the equivalent of $20 dollars a week, against medication a month that costs about $100, plus his therapies and special attention.
So I ask.
AITAH for asking my husband for a divorce for refusing to go to therapy?
I really appreciate that you take the time, I know that it is not a short or brief story, I will try to answer your questions in the comments if I have not been clear in any aspect. Right now I'm a mess, I'm discouraged because my situation is currently not good, my profession wears me out emotionally and mentally, added to the condition of my son who makes me feel like I'm not doing things right...
I need to know that there is something in life that I haven't done so badly. In advance, thank you Reddit community.

You can skip a lot of stuff here if you don't want a lot of details I am writing as much details as I can to make sure that whoever needs details can get them more easily, if there are details about anything you want to ask me about just ask.
So me and my gf are in a long distance relationship, we have been together for over a year and she trusts me a lot to the point that she doesn't mind telling me very private stuff about herself, but lately(nearly 18 days) she doesn't text me at all while I send her messages every day and night, sometimes at random times too, so it makes me worried for her wellbeing, or if she is ghosting me for another like a some of my ex gfs did to me, and my gf is attractive I know that well because some of my friends saw a picture of her on my phone, ehile i am below average in looks at best, I am 5'8 so average in height was a bit on the muscular side when we started dating but I lost slot of muscles due to inflation making me not able to afford enough protein without having to cut off on other stuff, my family is well off, while she is pretty much someone out of my league all that I said above about myself but better except the height I am just a bit taller than her she isn't extroverted but she has a lot of friends both girls and guys which I think you can see where I am going, makes me feel like she will cheat on me one day with a guy friend of her's since allot of them have better looks, taller, more muscular, etc, and I have a fear that someone will steal her from me, then I will have nothing after that, she is the most important person to me in the world, and no my parents or siblings aren't important to me since they pretty much make my life hell and full of problems but that is something for another time, anyways no I can't tell her to stop having male friends because that would make it double standards because I have female friends but I am only friends with them to understand more about what girls like and one of them pretty much helps me with writing poetry for my gf.
I guess what I wrote is enough if somehow you want more details about anything just ask me and I will answer asap, I need advice on what to do, if it is a way to make sure my worries go away or a way for me to stop thinking about it.

TLDR: Irrationally texted my ex parents after a breakup saying mean shit about her no threats just emotional dumb shit. Regret how childish I came off and feel like part of my healing even to move on fully is apologizing to grow. But I don’t want to bother as other redditors have exclaimed I should be lucky no restraining orders have been put out or I’m not in jail. I admit I said ugly shit but nothing that comes to threats or harm. Lmk please
Ex texted a bestfriend behind my back ending of last year ruining the friendship. Broke up with her, during that time I rekindled with someone else while occasionally texting my ex still not back together. Felt like I missed the warmth of my ex and dropped the new girl going back to my ex fully beginning of this year. Missed the support and love from my ex that I never truly got. Girl told me ex about our dirty laundry, causing trust issues in the whole relationship. Trust me when I tell you I felt more than guilty. I balled my eyes out with her and not even for getting caught for the reaction she had and how fragile she always was to me. I mention what she had does because stupidly I should have left when I had the chance. Even other instances where she had initiated things, I knew it might have not been the healthiest but she showed other signs of real true love. Tried fixing them by removing girls, sharing location, etc. I felt scared my ex is gonna get revenge and started being distant at the end which pushed her away as well. I thought we would get back together as always, found out she’s been adding guys she removed a long time ago. I got upset and texted her ugly nasty shit, and texted her dad saying his daughter is nasty etc. I thought by doing this I’d move on quicker by burning bridges, he told me to leave them alone I’m being childish. I understand I fucked up and fully agree. She’s done things and I know I shouldn’t have let be, but staying and getting revenge wasn’t the way. I’m realizing that as the hours even go by everyday I think about it. I want to apologize to the parents for the lack of character I had because I never ONCE disrespected them in their house, to their face. I called them Mr and Mrs always and always asked if they needed anything. I talked to a close female friend who said this stuff needs time and I can apologize if I’d like and if it makes me feel better, or write a letter and burn it. My parents said that’s not my character and said apologize if you feel necessary as I wasn’t raised like that. I feel like it’s too late to backtrack on the stupid shit I said. Am I being selfish by sending a text? I just want this weight off my chest of being the shitty person at the end at least to her parents who didn’t need any of that.
Is it smart to reach back out to the parents to show respect as an adult or just let them be? I know this was a lot but it’s on my heart and brain everyday since. I know I was emotional for no reason as I had done hurt to her in the past too. Seeing her move on so fast is what bothered me but I see she wanted me to feel what she felt. I just feel bad sitting on the thought that I left her parents with such a bad image of myself even thought it doesn’t matter anymore just doesn’t sit with me. Help?

I did a daycare for this cute pup which went very well, and the pupper’s mom asked if I can do a package deal for weekly care. I misquoted my rate incorrectly at $34 (rather than the correct $43) and applied 10% discount for package rate and mentioned $31 (in lieu of $39).
She asked me to send the recurring walk quote, but I feel bad correcting it to the right rate. Should I just honor the $31 rate or just say I misquoted? She does see my correct rate before discount of $43 on my profile and past booking, but I feel terrible. :(

While looking at whale-related news today, the following article grabbed my attention: N.B. Liberal MP calls for loosened right whale protection measures to help fishermen CBC News
Link: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/n-b-liberal-mp-calls-for-loosened-right-whale-protection-measures-to-help-fishermen-1.7209306
Summary: New Brunswick Liberal MP Serge Cormier has called for a loosening of North Atlantic right whale protection measures to support local fishermen facing economic challenges. The current measures, implemented to protect the critically endangered species, include fishing gear restrictions and area closures. Cormier argues that these regulations are too stringent and harm the fishing industry, suggesting a more balanced approach. Environmental groups, however, emphasize the necessity of these protections to prevent further decline of the whale population, which is already critically low.
This is important news for us Canadian whale lovers. If you live in Canada, please urge your Member of Parliament to take a stand against this idea, and stand with the endangered North Atlantic right whales instead. I have included an email template below, which you can send to your electoral district's MP. Here is a link to a Government of Canada tool to find your local MP: https://www.ourcommons.ca/Members/en
Here is the email template:
Dear Mr./Ms./Mx. [Member of Parliament's last name],
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the recent proposal by Acadie-Bathurst MP Serge Cormier to loosen protection measures for the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale, as detailed in the following CBC article: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/n-b-liberal-mp-calls-for-loosened-right-whale-protection-measures-to-help-fishermen-1.7209306
While I understand the significant challenges faced by our fishermen as a result of these protective measures, I firmly believe that the survival of this magnificent species must remain a top priority for Canada.
The North Atlantic right whale population is already on the brink of extinction, with fewer than 350 individuals remaining. Easing the current protective measures could lead to increased whale entanglements and vessel strikes, further threatening their survival. The consequences of such actions are irreversible and would tarnish Canada's commitment to biodiversity and environmental stewardship.
Additionally, Canada has legal obligations under the Marine Mammal Protection Act to ensure the conservation and protection of marine mammals. Weakening these protections would not only endanger the right whale further but also compromise Canada's adherence to international conservation standards and agreements.
I urge you to oppose any measures that would weaken the protections for the North Atlantic right whale. Instead, I encourage you to advocate for alternative solutions that can both support our fishermen and ensure the continued survival of the right whale. These could include:

1. Investment in Whale-Safe Fishing Gear: Support the development and adoption of innovative fishing technologies that minimize the risk to marine life.
2. Enhanced Monitoring and Enforcement: Strengthen the monitoring of fishing activities and enforce stricter penalties for violations of whale protection regulations.
3. Collaborative Solutions: Foster collaboration between scientists, conservationists, and the fishing industry to develop sustainable practices that protect both the whales and the livelihoods of our fishermen.

The survival of the North Atlantic right whale is a critical issue that requires our immediate attention and action. I trust that you, as a member of the Liberal Party, will stand for the preservation of our natural heritage and oppose any measures that compromise the protection of this endangered species. Our actions today will determine the fate of the right whale and reflect our values as a nation committed to the conservation of our planet's precious biodiversity.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to hearing about the steps you will take to ensure the right whale is safeguarded for future generations.
Sincerely,
[Your Full Name] [Your Address] [Your City, Province, Postal Code] [Your Email Address] [Your Phone Number]
ETA: Thank you to everyone who is participating in conservation efforts!

I am wanting to reach out to TikTok influencers by email. I have identified my niche and targeted those accounts by collecting the emails they put in their profiles labeled for business inquiries. So I have a ton of emails and I want to send them all a message about promoting my products on an affiliate basis. Anyways how many of these emails can I send daily before my email account is flagged as spam or suspicious activity etc. I don’t want to ruin my email account. Should I just use a burner email for this? I appreciate any help you can offer thanks!

I recently DM’d a girl on instagram who I’ve seen around at a public rec area. I never had the chance to talk to her in person and the season at the rec we both went to ended. (I participated, she just watched). Have made eye contact on a few occasions. I started by following her and she followed me back not too long after. I DM’d her the following day and told her I was interested in taking her out sometime and she responded 2 hours later very enthusiastically and seemed engaged. When I asked for her number she responded late the next day (Once again with an enthusiastic response). I liked the message and texted her. The message ended up being green when I texted the number and haven’t gotten a response for over a day. I understand if she is not interested, but seems sorta odd to go that far to intentionally give out the wrong number. Is it worth following up in the DM’s or just move on?

I, 29 (f), have been best friends with my 29 (m) childhood friend for nearly our whole lives. he announced on social media last year he got engaged to his partner (m), and i reached out to tell him how happy i was for him and couldn’t wait to celebrate. fast forward a few months, I started noticing him posting things about his wedding website. I reached out to him, because I saw that his wedding was going to be overseas. I wanted to make sure that he had my new address for my invitation (never doubted being invited as he came to my wedding, i should add here we also live in different states), so I texted him and I told him hey if you need my new address just let me know, he texted me back and said don’t worry you and your plus one will have an invitation in the mail.
fast forward all of these months later, his wedding is next week, and I was never invited. He’s been posting relentlessly on social media between his wedding shower, and all of his other friends from childhood and college coming to the wedding, and now leading up to the wedding next week, everyone I know has been posting about it. i’ve had to see this for months now.
I have not reached out to him to ask him why he did not invite me, I guess I’ve just been afraid of what he might say or what the reason might be, because I truly do not understand why, but I just feel like this is such a huge slap in the face and his way of, intentionally ending our friendship after all of these years.
What doesn’t make sense - Is that six years ago at my wedding, he and his future husband came to our wedding and stayed for several days, and we spent a lot of time together and made some great memories. I never saw our friendship ending, we’ve known each other since before we could barely talk, I never realized that I didn’t fit in his life anymore. But over the last few months and seeing him shamelessly posting about his wedding, never reaching out to me once, it just seems like he’s trying to send some kind of message and to let me know that this friendship is over. I’m not sure what to do, or if I should wait until after the wedding to say something. But it’s been incredibly hurtful to see all of these things on social media leading up to his wedding knowing that I didn’t get an invite and have to continue this shitty time of seeing all of these posts on social media for the next week. I’m not sure how to handle this.

Hey! I met some cool people here, and I am back hoping to meet some more, have some good conversations or play some games, maybe watch some shows and ideally make some friends!
I'll send you cat pics!
little bit about me:
I am 27, from US, extroverted introvert, laid back, goofy, maybe a little weird and love it. I have a nose piercing, I am very open-minded, not very judgmental. I love animals, enjoy hiking, gaming, reading, tech, music, game dev, art movies/shows/animation and cooking among other things.
Besides working I like to mess around with side projects, play video games, watch shows, I can be a homebody, but I love to get outside and go on walks/hikes or some other outside activity.
For my music I enjoy indie, alt, rap, rock, pop, punk, electronic and more. Pretty much anything but country.
Fashion wise I usually kind do whatever, but I lean towards an alt style.
The kind of humor I am into ranges from dark to dumb brain-rot type stuff.
I also smoke weed sometimes and would love to have a smoking buddy.
Just send me a message if you think we'd vibe, please send me more than a hey, I like to put effort into my conversations!

Waiting on feedback after second interview
So I had two interviews for a video game company. First round was with the recruiter and I just finished the second round with the manager last Thursday on May 17th. I sent a follow up email to the recruiter thanking them for the opportunity, I let them know the interview went well and the manager said they'd like to set up a final panel interview with me. It's about to be Wednesday and no response to the follow up email. I am wondering if they're still considering me or not, then I looked at my previous interactions with the recruiter and it tool them a week to get back to me for the initial interview. Should I send another follow up email this week or wait until next week? I don't want to bug them but I have heard of recruiters ghosting people. It would be weird because the interview with the manager went very well and ended with them saying they'd like to do a panel interview with me but I've had interviews go spectacular and not end up with the role. Any advice? Should I wait out the week or send them a message in a day or two?

I’m a young woman who has been in a couple relationships and for some reason many of my exes try to reach out to me saying they miss me or to send me explicit or agressive messages. They’ll go through social media or through alternate phone numbers if i have them blocked. I always make it very clear when i am done with a relationship and do not want to be contacted, but they do not respect that boundary at all and i’m tired of being spammed by a bunch of random numbers and blocking them all one by one. Is there anything i can do besides just ignoring them, blocking them, and hoping they stop? Again, I’m a young woman often alone in my house or car, and I’m always paranoid that one of my ex-partners might try to find me at home or work or something. Any advice is appreciated !!

TLDR: Irrationally texted my ex parents after a breakup saying mean shit about her no threats just emotional dumb shit. Regret how childish I came off and feel like part of my healing even to move on fully is apologizing to grow. But I don’t want to bother as other redditors have exclaimed I should be lucky no restraining orders have been put out or I’m not in jail. I admit I said ugly shit but nothing that comes to threats or harm. Lmk please
Ex texted a bestfriend behind my back ending of last year ruining the friendship. Broke up with her, during that time I rekindled with someone else while occasionally texting my ex still not back together. Felt like I missed the warmth of my ex and dropped the new girl going back to my ex fully beginning of this year. Missed the support and love from my ex that I never truly got. Girl told me ex about our dirty laundry, causing trust issues in the whole relationship. Trust me when I tell you I felt more than guilty. I balled my eyes out with her and not even for getting caught for the reaction she had and how fragile she always was to me. I mention what she had does because stupidly I should have left when I had the chance. Even other instances where she had initiated things, I knew it might have not been the healthiest but she showed other signs of real true love. Tried fixing them by removing girls, sharing location, etc. I felt scared my ex is gonna get revenge and started being distant at the end which pushed her away as well. I thought we would get back together as always, found out she’s been adding guys she removed a long time ago. I got upset and texted her ugly nasty shit, and texted her dad saying his daughter is nasty etc. I thought by doing this I’d move on quicker by burning bridges, he told me to leave them alone I’m being childish. I understand I fucked up and fully agree. She’s done things and I know I shouldn’t have let be, but staying and getting revenge wasn’t the way. I’m realizing that as the hours even go by everyday I think about it. I want to apologize to the parents for the lack of character I had because I never ONCE disrespected them in their house, to their face. I called them Mr and Mrs always and always asked if they needed anything. I talked to a close female friend who said this stuff needs time and I can apologize if I’d like and if it makes me feel better, or write a letter and burn it. My parents said that’s not my character and said apologize if you feel necessary as I wasn’t raised like that. I feel like it’s too late to backtrack on the stupid shit I said. Am I being selfish by sending a text? I just want this weight off my chest of being the shitty person at the end at least to her parents who didn’t need any of that.
Is it smart to reach back out to the parents to show respect as an adult or just let them be? I know this was a lot but it’s on my heart and brain everyday since. I was emotional on how she moved on so quick and added everyone she removed for me. But no excuse cause I had done my part in this and my blowing up made it a million times worse. Just want to fix the image with the parents as they were respectful to me and same to them up until I was acting stupid. Let them be?
