So If I understand, if one or two days I'm not in mood for anything and next day I'm full of energy and ready to go to party etc etc that is cyclothymia ? Isn't that like normal thing ? You have good days, you have bad days. Maybe I'm missing something here is my example you can read it or not, but you can just reply on first part
Everyday for me was weird, worrying about health anxiety because I have some problem and then my friends calling me and I'm in mood to go out with them and don't think about it, feel happy. I'm taking Zoloft 50mg for my anxiety and last 2 days I have weird feeling of euphoria like I havent had a long time, maybe never and it's not like I will jump out of window but I was like thinking maybe vacation would be good for me now, since I would rest there and swim and I would be on beach. Then I read that could be mania and my mind started worring about BP and now I found out about cyclothymia. Euphoric feeling stopped, still planning my vacation ( more like just changing environment) but I'm confused, I mean i'm battling derealization and depersonalization right now because of fear of my health

I was dragged by my in laws to the Layton temple open house over the weekend and just had to vent some things, first off I don’t know if any other open house have started doing this but for some reason they broke us into groups and were giving us a missionary spiel almost, when we got off the bus a sister missionary was there telling us about how the temple was the house of the lord, they sat us down in the sealing room and a lady gave a cheesy little thing about how her and her husband were sealed forever thanks to the temple (it would have seemed more genuine if she hadn’t read the whole thing off a laminated card) then they sat us down in the endowment room and gave a nice message about covenanting with god to follow him and he promises back to always be with you, you know the covenants we make in the temple, right? I was like, um those are the baptismal covenants, not going to talk about the ACTUAL covenants we make in the temple? Like give all your time and money to the church? Don’t want to tell that to the possible non members and investigators coming through in case they get weirded out? Another thing I hadn’t seen before was mannequins showing examples of what you would be wearing in the temple, one of the baptism jumpsuits, a white pants and tie outside the men’s changing rooms and a white dress outside the women’s, know what room DIDN’T have a mannequin? Two guesses and the first two don’t count, really don’t want to show people coming through the ridiculous and culty— I mean SACRED outfit you’ll be getting married in 🙄 and lastly my TBM wife loved this, I really did not. in the Layton temple they have gender neutral bathrooms with lockers in them for non binary and trans people wanting to get their endowments. My wife thought that was so cool that they were helping them feel included. I thought that was really disingenuous, neutral bathrooms were the LEAST they could do. They still have to get their endowments under their birth sex, they still split the endowment by male and female and they still won’t be able to get married. LGBTQ people are not welcome in the church and pretending that they are is really annoying. I’ll get off my soapbox I just had to hold all that in while my wife and family were so excited that they were being inclusive. Someone else on here or on a podcast I don’t remember, asked a question that’s stuck with me ‘why is the church always at the very end of social issues’, they didn’t lift the temple ban until 14 years after the civil rights act. And they are doing the same thing again by not accepting lgbtq people, shouldn’t christs one true church be more accepting of everyone regardless of how society treats them. You know love them like he did? gets off soapbox again and throws it in a dumpster this time just some thoughts coming out of it, sorry for the rant, anyone else see this style of almost specific for investors open house? Or is it a new thing they’re rolling out?
Also the wallpaper looks like d*cks and the ceilings pattern on the endowment rooms look like a vagina

I'm new to elsastic and i have been trying to get my cisco logs to show up in elastic. i have tried setting up the cisco logs intergation all with no luck. I keep getting a message that "No data has been received from this module yet". I may have an issue with the filebeat.yml or cisco.yml file.
I have attached both. Any help would be great
Thanks

================================= Dashboards =================================

These settings control loading the sample dashboards to the Kibana index. Loading

the dashboards is disabled by default and can be enabled either by setting the

options here or by using the `setup` command.

setup.dashboards.enabled: false

The URL from where to download the dashboard archive. By default, this URL

has a value that is computed based on the Beat name and version. For released

versions, this URL points to the dashboard archive on the artifacts.elastic.co

website.

setup.dashboards.url:

=================================== Kibana ===================================

Starting with Beats version 6.0.0, the dashboards are loaded via the Kibana API.

This requires a Kibana endpoint configuration.

setup.kibana:
host: "https://192.168.100.200:5601"
ssl:
enabled: true
verification_mode: "none"
certificate_authorities: ["/uslocal/share/certs/kibana-server_ca.crt"]
#END OF WHAT I ADDED
# Kibana Space ID
# ID of the Kibana Space into which the dashboards should be loaded. By default,
# the Default Space will be used.
#space.id:

=============================== Elastic Cloud ================================

These settings simplify using Filebeat with the Elastic Cloud (https://cloud.elastic.co/).

The cloud.id setting overwrites the `output.elasticsearch.hosts` and

`setup.kibana.host` options.

You can find the `cloud.id` in the Elastic Cloud web UI.

cloud.id:

The cloud.auth setting overwrites the `output.elasticsearch.username` and

`output.elasticsearch.password` settings. The format is `:`.

cloud.auth:

=============================== Lifecycle Management =========================

setup.ilm.overwrite: true

================================== Outputs ===================================

Configure what output to use when sending the data collected by the beat.

---------------------------- Elasticsearch Output ----------------------------

output.elasticsearch:
# Array of hosts to connect to.
hosts: ["192.168.100.200:9200"]
# Performance preset - one of "balanced", "throughput", "scale",
# "latency", or "custom".
preset: balanced
# Protocol - either `http` (default) or `https`.

# api_key: "1bBff48BxVUpsywKrQGA:PaN-4F_8RpKdfPxhaAYHiw"
username: "elastic"
password: "TgX-0Cw8Cx_5F6jQxaLw"

------------------------------ Logstash Output -------------------------------

output.logstash:

# The Logstash hosts
#hosts: ["localhost:5044"]
# Optional SSL. By default is off.
# List of root certificates for HTTPS server verifications
ssl.certificate_authorities: ["/uslocal/share/certs/http_ca.crt"]
# Certificate for SSL client authentication
#ssl.certificate: "/etc/pki/client/cert.pem"
# Client Certificate Key
#ssl.key: "/etc/pki/client/cert.key"

================================= Processors =================================

processors:

• add_host_metadata:

when.not.contains.tags: forwarded

• add_cloud_metadata: ~
  
• add_docker_metadata: ~
  
• add_kubernetes_metadata: ~
  

================================== Logging ===================================

Sets log level. The default log level is info.

Available log levels are: error, warning, info, debug

logging.level: debug

At debug level, you can selectively enable logging only for some components.

To enable all selectors, use ["*"]. Examples of other selectors are "beat",

"publisher", "service".

logging.selectors: ["*"]

============================= X-Pack Monitoring ==============================

Filebeat can export internal metrics to a central Elasticsearch monitoring

cluster. This requires xpack monitoring to be enabled in Elasticsearch. The

reporting is disabled by default.

Set to true to enable the monitoring reporter.

monitoring.enabled: false

Sets the UUID of the Elasticsearch cluster under which monitoring data for this

Filebeat instance will appear in the Stack Monitoring UI. If output.elasticsearch

is enabled, the UUID is derived from the Elasticsearch cluster referenced by output.elasticsearch.

monitoring.cluster_uuid:

Uncomment to send the metrics to Elasticsearch. Most settings from the

Elasticsearch outputs are accepted here as well.

Note that the settings should point to your Elasticsearch *monitoring* cluster.

Any setting that is not set is automatically inherited from the Elasticsearch

output configuration, so if you have the Elasticsearch output configured such

that it is pointing to your Elasticsearch monitoring cluster, you can simply

uncomment the following line.

monitoring.elasticsearch:

============================== Instrumentation ===============================

Instrumentation support for the filebeat.

instrumentation:

# Set to true to enable instrumentation of filebeat.

enabled: false

# Environment in which filebeat is running on (eg: staging, production, etc.)

environment: ""

# APM Server hosts to report instrumentation results to.

#hosts:

# - http://localhost:8200

# API Key for the APM Server(s).

# If api_key is set then secret_token will be ignored.

#api_key:

# Secret token for the APM Server(s).

#secret_token:

================================= Migration ==================================

This allows to enable 6.7 migration aliases

Overriding the default req

This is a burner account and my first time posting ever on Reddit. Please bear with me on the format and story telling.
I (27F) broke up with my ex (29M) a month ago. We have been dating for 7 years and we had our fair share of ups and downs. However, whenever we argue, my bf tends to belittle me, doesn’t acknowledge/ respect my opinions, and manipulates me. He would often tell me that I have low/no emotional intelligence, that he can find a girlfriend better than me, calls me childish, and tells me that my peers and family should be ashamed and embarrassed. He often does this thin g where if I make a mistake that hurts him, he thinks he’s allowed to hurt me in return until I beg him for forgiveness. I’ve told him that just because I hurt you, doesn’t mean you should hurt me with your words. He kept dismissing me and justifying his actions.
For example, he got upset that I didn’t message him quick enough, so I apologized and gave him a solution that I think would work best for me. But he didn’t like that idea and tried pushing his approach onto me. Even though the results would be the same. He told me that my way was stupid, that any adult with a fully developed brain can do it his way, and asked me why am I still arguing if I’m in the wrong. I told him that if we were going to continue to have this conversation, he cannot talk to me that way. But he didn’t acknowledge what i said, dismissed me, and tried to justify his actions. He told me that I’m just upset because it’s true and i just don’t like hearing the truth. In a way I thought I deserved it and that he was right, so I let it go.
Obviously that was one of the many arguments we had. It was a vicious cycle of me making a mistake, him belittling me, me telling him I don’t like the way he is talking to me, and he would continue to dismiss me and not acknowledge my feelings. I tried to bring it up multiple times after we finished arguing, but it was always the same answer; “you made me say it”, “that’s the consequences of your actions”, “you need to grow thicker skin.”
Until last week we got into another argument and he started to belittle me, and telling me that he could’ve said much worse but held his tongue. After hearing that, I was fed up of being put down all the time and trying to communicate about how I feel. So I ended the relationship.
A few week later, he contacted me, gave me a lengthy apology, and begging me for another chance. The first time he begged me, I told him that I couldn’t give him another chance because I have given him so many chances already. But in his eyes, the other chances that I gave him, he didn’t realize his mistake and so he couldn’t change. Therefore he wants me to give him another chance now since he realizes what he’s done and he wants to change.
He knows that he should’ve realized it when I told him the first time, but now that he understands and realized his mistakes, he wants me to give him another chance.
He has been begging me for a week straight. I’ve continuously told him that I can’t give him a chance but he still wouldn’t budge. At this point I told him that if I were to give him a chance, would he be okay if I distance myself from him until I can open up to him, and i will set boundaries until I feel like I can fully trust his words. He said that he understands and is willing to give me the space and time that I need.
I feel so conflicted on giving him another chance because I’ve been manipulated by him so many times. I’m worried that he will hurt me again but I also want to know if he will actually change.
I know that it’s up to my judgement whether he will change or not and if I am okay to go through the pain again. But I’m not sure what I should do.

This is more of an offmychest kwento rather an actual post.
Galing ako sa small companies on my previous jobs, and I was just surprised at how things were going now na I'm at a midsize corpo company.
My first few observation were:

• wow, pano naging close yung iba't ibang departments when there's no time naman na they could be hanging out.
  
• this might be an environment where "evil eye" could be present; i never thought that was ever true until na i realized na some people are really competitive na dumarating sa pagkakaron na ng crab mentality.
  
• akala ko kapag nasa corpo world ka parang tanggap mo nang "disposable" ka, akala ko norm na yung just giving the bare minimum. But no, in my department, didibdibin talaga nila yung work nila na kahit mag overnight pa sila. And take note, they're just juniors lang rin.
  
• it looks like i do really have to get used with bida bidang coworkers. Di ko talaga sila matatakasan. Tipong putak ng putak kahit mali naman pinagsasabi just for the sake of being proactive
  
• and speaking of, i do need to be proactive. I really need to!!! But it's just hard for me if di ko naman talaga ugali. Perfect example of nonchalant. I keep my reactions to myself and always patago ang kilos ko; meaning I can help but di ko ibibida yun. And it also doesnt help na i get tired easily, kaya always akong naka "energy-savings mode".
  
• idk why, pero i'm always thinking about how much will my salary increase if nag jobhop uli ako. I really need to stop thinking about it kasi i think factor talaga why I'm not active. I always have my foot out the door kahit kakapasok ko lang.
  
• i also have to accept the fact that I'm coworkers with achievers. May cum laude, may topnotcher, may from a very nice company. Tapos ako: mortal na tao lang. Di na pwede yung ugali kong nonchalant lang. If before, hinahayaan ko lang if may gustong magpakajollibee sa work dapat ngayon I can prove na I really do deserve to be in the team. I need to study more so I can contribute naman.
  

Ibang iba talaga to from my previous experience na direkta inuutusan na ako kung ano gagawin, like di ko na kailangan mag-isip kasi ginawa na ng seniors ko for me. This time, I'll be thinking of the solution with raw data handed to me. This is gonna be so hard and uncomfortable but I hope I wont cry and give up kasi this is worth learning naman.
A message to myself: you need to experience everything kahit na mahirap, kasi it will be your leverage. Magpakatatag and maging masipag. Don't expect everything will be handed to you. Altho, it will also be helpful if you gather info/knowledge from colleagues. Wag mo na taasan pride mo, ask a lot of questions! This is the perfect opportunity since you're surrounded with competitive people. Wag ka papatalo. Bawal na ang tatamad tamad! Mahalin mo work mo and aim to be promoted ASAP!!! Magpakabida bida ka na, bata ka pa naman

i’m looking for this in the perspective of a newly 21 year old man, and how someone would actually want me to respond to a message like this. i just sometimes feel like my boyfriend is emotionally immature, and sometimes he says things that catch me off guard and sometimes even hurt my feelings. for example, literally last night: for context, i was showing him one of my finished sketches, because he told me he likes seeing what i draw, but this one just so happened to be erotic, followed by this emoji “🤓.” i of course didn’t mean anything by it, but he took it the wrong way and instead reacted this way:
him: “if i’m not passionate enough for you tell me or make a decision for yourself haha don’t be self entitled while also being silent ight girl? i’m just checking you cause i don’t want you building unhealthy habits.”
me: “i’m a little confused. what do you mean by that?”
him: “you know what it means i hate when you play dumb and don’t even think i’m not mad or anything but please just say okay or something”
this is what caught me so off guard initially, i still feel weird reading it. but i would love your guy’s input.

In today’s digitally interconnected world, having a robust social media presence is not just a marketing option but a necessity, especially for public companies aiming to engage with current and potential investors. If your company is limiting its social media activity to just one or two platforms, it’s time to reconsider your strategy. Diversifying your social media outreach across multiple platforms can significantly enhance investor awareness and engagement. Here’s why and how to effectively implement this approach.

WHY DIVERSIFY YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE?

Reach a Wider Audience
Every investor has their preferred social media platform. By limiting your presence to just Twitter or LinkedIn, for example, you might miss out on engaging with potential investors who prefer Instagram, Facebook, or even TikTok. Broadening your social media activity ensures that you reach a more diverse audience, maximizing your potential investor base.
Platform-Specific Strengths
Each social media platform has unique features and user demographics. LinkedIn is great for professional updates and detailed company news, while Twitter is excellent for quick, real-time updates. Instagram and TikTok are perfect for visually appealing content, and YouTube allows for in-depth video presentations and earnings calls. Utilizing the strengths of each platform can enhance how you communicate your company’s value proposition.
Enhanced Engagement
Consistent posting across multiple platforms increases your visibility and keeps your company top-of-mind for investors. The more touchpoints you have, the more opportunities for engagement. Diverse content types – from news releases and project updates to interviews and events – can cater to various preferences, making your updates more engaging.

EFFECTIVE MULTI-PLATFORM POSTING STRATEGIES

Tailor Content to Each Platform
While it’s efficient to share the same message across platforms, it’s crucial to tailor your content to fit the style and audience of each platform. For instance, a detailed news release might perform well on LinkedIn but could be condensed into key highlights for Twitter and accompanied by a compelling visual for Instagram. Stock Marketing customizes each post to to align with the unique style and audience of each platform.
Consistency is Key
Regular posting helps maintain your presence and keeps your audience engaged. Posting more than just your news releases not only helps in keeping your audience informed but also improves your algorithmic standing on these platforms, enhancing visibility.

THE BUSINESS CASE FOR MULTI-PLATFORM SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY

Investors today rely heavily on digital channels for information. A strong, multi-platform social media strategy can position your company as transparent, accessible, and innovative. Here’s how it can benefit your business:

• Increased Investor Awareness: By being present on multiple platforms, you increase the chances of your company being discovered by potential investors. This can lead to greater interest and more informed investment decisions.
• Enhanced Brand Image: Active and engaging social media presence can enhance your company’s brand image, portraying it as dynamic and responsive. This is particularly appealing to younger investors who value digital engagement.
• Competitive Advantage: Companies that effectively leverage social media stand out from competitors who might be slow to adopt these strategies. This can give you a significant advantage in attracting and retaining investors.

Incorporating a multi-platform social media strategy is no longer optional but a strategic imperative for public companies. By reaching out to investors on their preferred platforms, tailoring content to fit each medium, and engaging consistently, your company can significantly boost investor awareness and engagement. Embrace the power of social media to unlock new opportunities and drive your company’s growth in today’s digital landscape. Finding it challenging to keep pace with your company’s social media?

Hello, hoping someone can provide me insight. Went in to OB last Friday due to some spotting and cramping over the course of two days. US showed what appeared to me (I do US regularly at my work) as a large irregular sac with angulations. I should’ve been 6w4d by lmp. I was tracking ovulation with LH strips and know I didn’t ovulate until after cycle day 15 but unfortunately I don’t know exactly when I ovulated due to being on vacation and not tracking. Based on when we had sex I could’ve ovulated a week to 12 days late. My lmp was 3/31 and I had a positive high sensitivity pregnant test May 1, it was a very very faint line. OB mentioned the sac irregularity and didn’t see a yolk sac or fetal pole. She wanted hcgs to get a better picture of what’s happening. On Friday my beta hcg was 18442 then 48 hrs later 27509. Ob messages me that the rise is appropriate and promising and maybe the irregularity and lack of yolk sac and fetal pole is due to doing the US so early.
My question is, isn’t that HCG too high to not see anything on US? She did the US so fast, I don’t think she looked in the transverse view. I’m supposed to go for another us in two weeks. Should I ask for a diagnostic ultrasound sooner? Is there really a chance it might be fine? Should I be concerned for ectopic? Honestly, I would think with a high hcg, empty irregular sac, and complaints of bleeding and cramping she’d be more concerned about ectopic. Kinda spiraling here. Would love to hear any insight including similar stories.

So as the title says I'm i. A miserable marriage. The problem is I have zero options so we are stuck. We've been together for 12 years. Married for 8. I dont know how we've made it this far. A lottttt of accepting it because its never going to change . I can't accept it anymore. Weve had the same fight for probably 7 years. . Helping around the house. He thinks because he works 8 hours that's enough and I should be able to handle our 5 children 3 dogs and 2000 sq ft house on my own. I've stayed home with this last babg due to health problems that I'm getting surgery for in 2 days. So up until my 8th month of pregnancy I was working our entire relationship. So this has been an issue since then. But he recently switched careers from construction to hospitality management of a large gas station /convenience store . Hes making great money. His construction job was morning's. This is 4pm-1am. So he gets home at by 130am. And instead of relaxing and trying to go to sleep he says up until 3-4am. Then proceeds to sleep until 1p... wakes up very very slowly. Comes out and sits in the living room . Than goes to the bathroom for a half hour. OK so by then we are already at 2pm. Then comes back out and relaxes more before he goes to work. Then gets a shower and leaves by 330.pm Allllllll the while I'm putting kids on the bus, cleaning, taking kids to appointments, taking care of the animals. Extra. All while he gets his beauty sleep.
I know he has a problem. And has for years. I used to not let it bother me until the past probably 10 months..when we do have set which is very very rare like once every 2 months , he doesn't cut. Hes never ever ever had an issue with that. I mean clearly we have 5 children. Njt I said im not good enough for you. Thats what it is your mind is over stimulated with watching porn that what we do isn't satisfying him mentally and emotionally. Clearly now physically. And it makes me feel like there's something wrong with me. I've tried initiating sex and cjdde time so many times I've given up I used to stay up for him when he'd get home for like an house to spend time together where he's actually awake. Ice asked him so come to bed with .e at like 2-230. He says I'm not tired. I said I know just lay with me until I go to sleep. Or cuddle or talk because I miss that. He said no im not tired. I said you can come back out here afterwards. And he just continues to sit in the chair watching TV and eating.
Hes gained like 30 lbs I've become unattractive to him. Just being honest. But also if he tried to make me happy in any way shape or form maybe I'd feel more fire to keep pursuing him. But I'm not being fulfilled in any way what so ever so I feel like I've given up . Most of the time we are in the car in silence. I've asked him to wake up earlier to have breakfast with me . Either go out or make it at home. He won't get up. I've asked for help with home projects. He won't get up for that. I've asked for help folding laundry since he's sitting anyway..he won't. When I push for help it gets him so frustrated and defensive that he snaps and tells me why should he do anything when I don't. Which is clearly a lie. He said you're home all day so you can do it. I said I do what are you talking about?! Its not spotless but I maintain during the day doing big cleaning projects in every room ill spend 3-6 hours cleaning one room. Than the next day do the others and so on. I do all the grocery shopping and cooking. Which ok again im home so I can do all of that. But seriously I'm overwhelmed. I'm getting major surgery in two days and I finally saud yesterday. You know I'm done being angry when you don't do things to help me with the house and kids or even being present. What's said is im more disappointed than anything and that's really ashamed because I expect better out of you because I know you can do better. I said im sick of being let down. Im sick of being alone. Im sick of cleaning up after everyone Including him because he goes to bed and leaves plates cups wrappers truly everything so I wake up and usually take care of it. So I stopped numerous times. Including lately to see if it bothers him enough to do anything. But it doesnt doesn't. I didnt speak to him for 3 solid days. And it didnt bother him , he didn't even try to reach out to me. I feel like the marriage is unrepairable but with me staying home I've become dependent which I absolutely hate. But I'm stuck. I can't leave because I can't afford an apartment or house. If I stay here and he leaves he wouldn't be able to afford to help with the kids nor would he ever see them. I've even asked him to put them on the bus for me to sleep some and also him spend time with his kids. And I wake up to him yelling at them and I flip out of him because I refuse to allow my 12,7,5 year old girls wake up to being yelled at and sending them off to school after being yelled at all because he has no patience.
I don't know what to do. I'd never cheat on him but I understand why people do. Im so freaking lonely I can't take it. I've had my tunes removed so no more babies. Our final one is an absolute joy always happy just goes with the flow. So it's not the added stress of a baby. Sbe just turned a year old. And since than we've had six 6 times. I have physical needs, emotional and mental needs and none of it is being met. Hes being a bad example to the kids of not only a husband and father but just responsibilities. He screams at them for their shoes being left out in the middle of the floor but he does the exact same thing to where he's telling them to put his away also. Like really?! He won't do counseling. I've tried. I've threatened divorce and I get told I'm being dramatic and am I taking my mental health meds because I'm acting crazy. I'm truly not though. I'm just depleated and defeated. And feeling stuck. I literally get messages from old friends who see pictures of my face and see my post on fb not including him or really any happiness and it actually makes them feel bad for me.. they say I'm too good for this, that i deserve better that they would treat me so good and have actually asked me out on dates just to feel excitement again. And I've been so tempted but I would feel so guilty.
Please someone help me with some advice. I know there's many couples who have gone through this. I need guidance. I have no family support other than oh im sorry you're dealing with this . No where to go with 5 kids.
Tl;dr Husband won't do anything to be helpful at home or with the kids. Says be works his 8 hours and that's enough . Won't do anything but leave me more of a mess to clean causing me more stress. Taking care of the house and kids completely by myself. His mom comes over to help me some times and she's o frustrated seeing him be like this towards me. Shes tried to talk to him with no result. I dont want to give up on my family. I dont know what else to do, serious talks don't work

I'm a 24-year-old guy from Rhode Island hoping to meet someone with whom I can share some fun memories with and get to know one another. Here's a bit about me:

• Interests: I love everything from outdoor activities like hiking and fishing to more laid-back pursuits such as gaming, smoking weed and watching movies.
  
• What I look like: I can send a picture if you ask but I’m 6’1, slim/average build and brown haifacial hair
  
• Work and Education: Currently, I'm working from home as a software engineer; but that gives me plenty of time during the day to sneak a message in or send a meme to you ;)
  
• Personality: Friends describe me as easygoing, thoughtful, and always ready to help out. I value honesty and communication and am looking for someone who shares those values.
  
• Looking For: I'd love to meet someone who is kind-hearted, curious about the world, and enjoys laughing both at life’s absurdities and the good jokes (or bad puns!). Let’s start with a chat and maybe a casual meet-up if we click!
  

If you think we might get along, send me a message! Tell me about your favorite movie, your dream vacation, or the best book you’ve recently read. Looking forward to hearing from you!

This is a place for Neo-Nazis to interact with each other and share their thoughts and messages relating the values of National Socialism with the current world problems.
When I say Neo-Nazis, I do not refer to the people who are ready to strap on a swastika on their forehead and scream outdated chants like an idiot. This community is for people to intellectually discuss the applications and ideals inspired by the National Socialism pioneered by German chancellor Herr Adolf Hitler. The main point of the sub is that it does not strictly resort to the German Nazi values. It worked out for a decade, then it failed and it is now history. Modern Nazism has to recognize the modern times and it's issues on a global scale.
I know there are many of you who innately feel and realize the fact that the Nazi government wasn't all unsuccessful as the victors are claiming during the course of rewriting history. In fact there was a point in time when this government was the most successful and awe inspiring in the whole world. The entire mood and status and pride of Germany was uplifted through their efforts. The innovations in engineering, aviations, arms & ammunitions, automobiles were so rapid and excellent that you can still find it's remains and influences around you in the current world. There was something, and there can be something.
Disclaimer: This sub is not functioning to channel anti-Semitism in a blind manner, which the Nazis are historically known for. The Jewish obsession and blatant anti-Semitism is what ended the Nazi regime for good. We have to make calculated and thoughtful arguments instead of just blaming it on one whole community. The current Zionist government of Israel is a good example of this ilk; their senseless governance is embarrassing all the Jews in the world.
Holocaust happened. It was real. Do not forget it and never again. Long live National Socialism!

I don’t know what to do. I have tried absolutely everything.
So I’m a woman in my 30s who has a degree, a good enough job and all I do is work, come home, eat alone and loneliness is eating me up.
I have felt this way since I was 23 years old.
I don’t have a community of friends. I have around 3 fairly close people who were from different parts of my life (one an old job, one from high school, one from college) who I see now and then but there’s no intense, talk constantly, I can tell them anything kind of friendship, they are just people I can grab lunch with now and then months apart.
My dating life has been horrendous. I can’t even explain how bad. It makes me feel like I’m this disgusting rat. All 3 friends and family members plus random people I’ve known throughout my jobs and things have all commented on how strange it is that I don’t have a partner and how badly things go for me.
The people I have dated in my past have all treated me very similarly. As in, I’ve never had an amicable breakup that ended nicely. They’ve all left me feeling awful. Everyone has always been extremely blunt in telling me I’m basically not good enough. Some phrases I’ve heard were: “you make me feel like I want to get myself back” “I didn’t ever see a future with you and didn’t know why I didn’t tell you this before” “you’re boring” “I understand why your friends and family don’t bother with you” “I just don’t care about you” “
I don’t drink alcohol and all these people told me at the start it wasn’t a problem for them. But sooner or later they would comment on how nice it would be if I joined them for a wine out on the porch after work or be able to go to a cocktail bar. And they would pressure me into doing it despite my strong stance on just not enjoying it. It almost seemed like everyone I dated was a disguised alcoholic even though they weren’t because that was the topic of a lot of our arguments … even though I know they weren’t in their “normal life” but just with me alcohol seemed so important that I didn’t do it.
I always came away feeling awful. I have an array of hobbies and find myself interesting - care for animals, reading, hiking, nature, skiing, cycling, I draw, and also write stories - nobody was ever interested in reading any or caring.
Whenever I go out with friends their partners… care. It’s something I noticed a lot. They’d text or call and ask for updates. Even when I was in relationships this didn’t happen. I’ve never, EVER had a partner or boyfriend who cared about me. This is not normal and I’ve never felt loved.
Both of my parents aren’t here either and I have a weird relationship with my brother. He’s married with kids and we aren’t close. I’ve tried and again I feel “not enough”. He tells me he doesn’t WANT to go on vacations with me because I don’t drink and he likes to go to bars and sip wine at nice places and I’d just not be compatible with him on holiday. He therefore doesn’t ever ask to hang out with me in our own country.
I was only ever close with my mother and miss her so much it hurts. I don’t feel connected with anyone and feel my personality must be so awful that nobody wants me around.
I’ve travelled a lot and even lived in other countries and feel deflated. If I do something pretty cool or a nice achievement I can’t tell anyone. Sure, a couple of my friends might send a nice text but I have nobody to hug, kiss or hype me up. I come home to my empty apartment and just have my own thoughts.
Every date I go on recently is a reflection of my past. People just seem to be super interested in the start, as in.. I have no issues getting matches and getting a good conversation flowing, sometimes even up to three moths of dating but then it ends. The same patterns occur where they suddenly don’t want a serious thing and are gone.
I’m broken making these constant deep connections with strangers only to then feel like I never knew them at all.
Friends have told me in the past I am too nice and fall too hard and people can see this but I don’t get it.
I pour my heart and soul into connections I do make, am sweet and caring and it’s never enough for people. I’ve never ever felt anything was ever reciprocated.
Everyone around me has a marriage - a stable, grown adult marriage with house problems and real life stuff, kids or engagements, stuff like that. I want that so much. I want a person to share my life with. I am so tired of being alone and being on this age on apps and going through the same things feeling so unloved and unwanted.
I look around - and this is going to sound judgmental and I don’t mean to be. But I look around at others I knew from school and friends and things and even people who are either not very attractive or even people with horrific personalities (mean, screechy, drama central kind of people) have good loyal husbands and a fairly decent enough life.
I feel like I’ve witnessed multiple situations where people cheat, so awful things and still someone is FIGHTING for someone to stay, fighting for love, somebody is a staple in their life worth it.
For me that’s just exactly what I feel I don’t have. Nobody has ever fought for me. Never cared enough to even go into a serious, let’s live together, maybe get married situations. Nobody has ever made effort the way I do. I’m good looking enough, not the most sexy person in the room but get told I’m natural beauty, cute and stuff like that. I try and take care of myself. I have that “sweet shy gentle” type personality and everyone I meet tells me I have such a good heart and soul. I really do everything for people. So I don’t understand.
I’m terrified of this continuing and I’m exhausted. I don’t feel like I belong anywhere. I’m absolutely broken with feeling like my whole life has been loss around me, in terms of death of my loved ones and also loss of people I’ve cared for and wanted something with, loss of friendships that were once more solid and now are casual, just loss of everything.
Like I said I’ve tried travelling, lived in other countries, joined so many hobby groups and clubs, the amount of nights I’ve sat at a random meet up of a social night with a soft drink and chatted and gave it my all for nothing to come of it is hard to remember, I’ve even reached out on social media to old friends from random hobbies and school and nothing comes of anything.
I don’t know what else to do. I enjoy my own company but I’m now at a point where it’s depressing me so much. I don’t want this to be my life. I want to go to theme parks with someone and feel alive. I want to book holidays with someone and get excited. I want to pack together and prepare their bags. I want to ask someone about their day. I want to share plans. I don’t want to just come home anymore and stare at a wall. Constantly see people thriving on social media. Have no family at important holidays. Nobody to celebrate things, I feel so empty and not even a part of society when I see the beach packed with people, gifts for sale in stores, etc. it’s not for me because I have no one.
I don’t know what else to do. If something cool happens in my day it didn’t really happen because I am literally by myself and have nobody who cares. I feel like other single people still have close friends or a mother or father who is interested, even a community of some sort. But I am literally alone.
Even when I do stuff with friends it’s only for an hour or two and I’ll get a taste of what a nice happy life is like, maybe an hour walking along a nice beach or a nice dinner somewhere with people around us then I’m back to being alone when they go back home to their husbands and have a cute night.
I cry everyday and don’t understand this. I’m so envious of people who have tons of people in their life. I never will have that even if I find a partner. But it just kills that even that part doesn’t exist. I can’t even explain how empty I feel. My birthday went by with one text message from one of my close friends and the other two sent one days later saying they forgot and had been busy. It’s like I don’t exist. And I’m terrified and don’t know what to do.

Hello everyone.
I need help fine-tuning Llama3 to analyse exception messages from log files generated by a Windows application.
I created a dataset in huggingface with a lot of possible inputs, which are the exception messages, and the outputs, which are divided into 7 categories:

• Coding issue
• Network issue
• Database issue
• Infrastructure issue
• Memory issue
• Service issue
• Irrelevant

However, the dataset is very small and when I'm testing the model I'm noticing either wrong answers or a lot of hallucinations.
I'm also using Unsloth and the Colab code to fine-tune Llama3.
The dataset: https://huggingface.co/datasets/agoncalves/log_excp_messages . There are only 146 rows as I can not find anymore examples to feed the model.
Important to note that the only thing I've changed in the Colab code was removing the "instruction" variable, adding temperature=0 and changing the dataset from alpaca to mine.
Should I change something else? Or perhaps changing the dataset? I'm still a beginner and there are a lot of things I don't understand.
Any tips are welcome.
Thank you

Popheads recently reached the 2 million subscriber milestone, thanks to your continued participation and support!
We wanted to celebrate, and tried to think of fun things that we could do as a subreddit. A well loved Popheads activity has always been our yearly Top 100 lists, where the community comes together to vote to create a list of our favorite 100 songs of the past year. The list reveal is always fun and one of my personal favorite days of the year, and these lists honestly provide a great representation of our community - a snapshot of our own personal taste, if you will.
Therefore, for this subscriber milestone, we will be doing another Popheads Top 100…but this time, of a throwback year: 2014!!!
2014 was chosen for two reasons: one, the obvious, is that this year is the tenth anniversary of that year. The second is that the annual Popheads Top 100 actually started with the year 2015, so 2014 is the most recent year without “coverage”, so to speak. (If this is a success, we would love to repeat this for other years - 2013, 2012, even earlier!)
Without further ado, the rules for participation are below.

How To Participate

NOTE: Thank you so much to raicicle, whose posts for the annual Popheads Top 100 form the basis of this post!
Like with our normal years, you can also vote in the entirely non-official just-for-fun survey: “What song would you remove a vote from?” You can fill that in optionally here even if you don’t submit an official ballot.

I. How To Send In Your Song Votes

Make a list of your favorite songs released in 2014 (January 1st 2014 - December 31st 2014). This list should have a minimum of 10 songs and a maximum of 25 songs. Please see II. Song Eligibility for more details on what you can and can't submit.

• Do not submit more than 3 songs from any one main artist. Songs where those artists are features do not count towards this 3-song limit on your list.^†
• The list does not have to be ordered/ranked. We are not weighting your votes, just tallying.
• PM your lists to our shared account u/Popheads100Throwback by June 16th, 11:59PM EST (03:59AM GMT).
• Songs should be listed in Artist - Song format with features listed with (feat. ____) after the song title. Try to stylize and capitalize artist and song names as closely to the official listing as you can (for example, Beyoncé should have the accent). The fewer discrepancies, the easier it is for us to sort the list later, so it's very much appreciated.
• You can change your list at any time! Just message us and tell us what you want changed.

^† There are always some weird discrepancies and edge-cases every year, so please DM us if you have any queries or post them in this thread to let people know!
We can be DM'ed here at this account, or at our personal Discord or Reddit accounts (@ bigbigbee a.k.a bigbigbee ; @ trailblazer_l a.k.a prettybirbkotori ; @ haobinist a.k.a MoonlightByWindow ; @ haobinfan a.k.a runaway1312 ).
And here's a few more important guidelines.

• Your songs do not have to be singles. Of course, if you're trying to get a certain song on the list, singles tend to get more votes than random album tracks.
• Your songs do not have to be 'pop' songs, nor do vocal songs have to be in English. Songs from any genre, and international songs, are all welcome. After all, no “best of 2014” list can be complete without Orange Caramel’s Catellena...
• We are not encouraging tactical or strategic voting, but we are not exactly discouraging it either. Obviously, some songs are more likely to make the list than others, and you should keep that in mind when making your list (whether that means you choose to stick to the big hits, or champion some lesser-known songs instead).

II. Song Eligibility

Your song must have been first officially available between the dates of January 1st 2014 and December 31st 2014. What does 'first officially available' mean? In essence, legally available to stream (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, etc.) or buy online.

• If a single was released after January 1st 2014, but was first officially available on a parent album before that date, it is not eligible.
• Similarly, a song on an album released after January 1st 2014 is not eligible if it was released as a pre-album single prior to that date. Sadly, this means Azealia Banks’ 212 is therefore ineligible (probably for the best, we all know it would have won…).
• Official remixes are eligible for the list regardless of the original song's release date, provided that the remix was released between the same dates of January 1st 2014 and December 31st 2014.

If you are unsure on a song's eligibility, please use this thread to clarify or DM us and we’ll be happy to help.
If you would like a reminder of what songs were released in 2014, feel free to have a peruse through these links:

• Billboard Year-End Hot 100 Singles of 2014 (be careful, a lot of these songs were released in 2013!)
• Billboard Year-End Hot 100 Singles of 2015 (see above addendum)
• List of all albums released in 2014 on website AOTY
• User-rated best albums of 2014 on AOTY
• Pitchfork’s best albums of 2014
• K-pop releases of 2014

III. How We Will Make The Final Top 100 List

To make life easier for everyone involved, as was previously mentioned, you do not have to rank your song choices. Every submission counts as one vote, and the list is simply the 100 songs that got the most submissions in order. There are however caveats to this:
An artist will never have more than 3 songs on the list. Even if after the initial vote an artist manages to have 6 songs numerically in the Top 100, only the top 3 of those will be added. This is an editorial decision, based on the fact that it seems more popular to feature as many different artists as possible and showcase the breadth of the sub's music taste rather than dedicate huge chunks of the list to one artist, or one album (sorry 1989 fans!).
It is inevitable that many songs will get the same number of votes. Songs with the same number of votes will appear alphabetically in the list, but we will make the number of votes that every song received public. There may be some weird stuff happening if the list doesn’t end up being exactly 100 songs long, in which case there may be some discretional tie-breaks.

IV. Writeups

The final list will be presented as a Pitchfork-style Top 100 with small writeups to bring some insight and a bit of a story to the song. If you’ve been around for the yearly top songs lists, then you are likely familiar with the process.
We'll be writing the Top 15 to keep it under wraps. The remaining 85 songs will be given to other guest writers! If you feel like you’re a good writer and you’re interested, just mention it when you send in your list (we will assume that you're interested in writing for one of the tracks that you submitted in your votes).
Write-ups will ideally be 4-6 sentences long, though shorter or longer is completely fine**.** Feel free to talk about anything - its chart performance, its composition, your personal experience with the song, etc. There is no perfect writeup - this list is a collection of our thoughts as a community, not an official list from a music publication!
You can also message any of us on our personal Discord or Reddit accounts as listed above (Discord is slightly preferable) if you’re interested – we will try our best to find a writeup for you if possible!
In choosing to do writeups, you inevitably find out whether a song has made it onto the list to write for it, but to keep the surprise as much as possible, we will not tell you the position of the song if we send you a song to write for.
To get the general gist of what these writeups will be like, feel free to have a look at 2022’s Top 100 list.

V. The List Reveal

The list will be revealed on Sunday, July 7th, 2024 (exact time TBD). The live reveal will be on Queup https://www.queup.net/join/top-100-of-2014, where all 100 songs will be played in order from #100 to #1; as each song goes out, its write-up will be posted to a post on the subreddit.

First_Previous
Again a small lore dump, on magic attributes. Hope you enjoy!
_________________________________________________________________________________
On the way to the next lesson Mor was asked °Think, I could use your magic?° by the human.
°I don´t know, maybe something to try later today° he answered. °Yeah, let's do that too.° Human agreed.
The next lesson was an interesting one, at least for the visitor from beyond, it was a lesson on the rules of magic, even if Mor and quite a few of his peers were lulled into sleep by the soothing voice of the teacher. The human, never expected, that someone could teach something so interesting in such a boring way.
...
As you all know, magic is divided into types, that are known to us as attributes.
Attributes have a positive effect on magic of the same type and a negative effect on the type opposing it. To give you an example for this a mage with fire affinity, will not be able to use higher forms of water magic. We know of the following attributes, but sometimes new ones are discovered, so this list is ever-expanding. Please pay attention now, as this will be test-relevant. We know of the elemental attributes, Fire, Earth, Water, and Wind, the manipulation attributes, Healing and Illusion and finally the royal attribute, only seen in the royal Diamond family, called Gravity.
Here I have to note, that there are spells, that are not included in any of those attributes and can be used by anyone. These are called Basic-attributed spells. Those spells include for example things like body enhancement, magic bolt, or the widely used message spell.
Now please note that the attribute distinctions are only one part, the second part is the distinction of potency of the spells. Firstly there is the single-class, moving and manipulating existing materials, you can pick fruits or use a small amount of water to water a plant, they can only do what anyone could do with their own hands and basic tools. Next up would be group-class where the material to manipulate will be supplied by the magic power and here your attributes will matter. In this class, the basic martial spells and convenience spells are located, with a strength that a small group estimated at around five people could produce with their tools. Then we get into the village-class magic and as you can surely guess those include things, that would need the manual labor of a small village, and here most of you will find yourself comfortable spellcasting. But then we go into the higher forms, here you either need a soul-bound partner with the same affinity as yourself to supply the energy demands, those are called demographic-class, and finally, there would be world-class magic, but the energy required of those could only be supplied by a whole convent of right attributed mages at least that´s the theory. Nobody was able to use a spell like that, it is purely hypothetical.
...
°Ok, that was really interesting, I would like to see what those high-class spells are capable of.° The human stated and Mor answered °Yes, but with my magic reserves, we will probably be stuck at group-class magic.° °Laaaame!° Human exclaimed. °We really need to find a way to get you more magic... This is just stupid.°
°Well it would help if it is possible for you to also cast spells. Then we could be much faster in using magic.° Mor thought. °Well, only a few more hours and we can test that, at home.°
°You´re right.° the human agreed.
With this, both of them either suffered or excitedly listened through the following lessons, and Mor having a peaceful lunch break. At last as peaceful, as it can be with a human trying to move random body parts and cursing about how hard it was. Mor finally made them stop after he was made to involuntary open his hand, and drop his juice. But without the acute danger of the bullies, it was very nice for a change, if a bit lonely. But still much better than before, the only bad thing about the bonding with the human was, that his body ached after the human moved it so violently, but it would pass, he was sure of that.
Finally, after lessons ended, Mor acquired something for supper and retreated to his room, carefully locking the door and at the insistence of the human enhancing the lock with a simple spell to make the lock and door more sturdy.
After they finally "guarded" their room right, Mor refusing to add some "surprises" for anyone opening the door. They sat down on the bed and began with what they discussed.
°I want to try using magic first.° The human opened. °Moving your body is hella exhausting.°
°Yes, let´s try it. First, just concentrate on the magic inside our body and make it flow.° Mor guided the human. °How do I concentrate on the magic?° The question came and Mor explained further. °You have to feel the potential within and then concentrate on it.°
After a short while the human stated °Is it bad, that I can´t feel any potential or whatever? Maybe just go like this and yes I think I feel something flow!° Mor felt elated, now they could cast two spells even with his meager energy reserves. °Great! Now concentrate on the pillow and imagine it fluffing itself up.° And once again the human tried, but nothing would happen. °Huh? Why is nothing happening? I feel something flowing and all.° They asked. °I don´t know, I´m telling you what I was told when I started with the magic. What my parents taught me.° Mor answered.
°Speaking of your parents, you have magic communication. Why is that message taking so long to reach them? Shouldn´t that be instantaneous?° The human asked.
Mor sighed °Your understanding is screwed up, how would you even think that? Message magic is simple, so you need to have a view on your recipient or it won't work.°
°Well, we have some stories in our world, with magic settings and shit, and there it is always super handy and can do just about anything. While here it is tedious and full of "that´s not how it works".° The human sounded disappointed.
°Well let´s get back on track and let me try some more. Maybe you could watch the flow of your energy, then tell me if I do something right.° Human offered and Mor nodded. Like that, they tried, but Mor could not detect any movement in the energies within him. °This is not working.° Mor stated, and the human had to reluctantly agree.
°So we are left with trying to let me do the body movement... Not ideal, but well let´s try something from my world. Take deep breaths and relax, only concentrate on your breathing.° The human instructed and Mor followed the directions and slowly felt his body moving, doing everything in his power to not intervene and only concentrate on his breathing until finally the human let out a satisfied grunt.
°Yes that is better, it is still hard, but now I´m just moving something I´m not accustomed to, instead of fighting you.° The human sounded pretty happy and Mor was too, but a quick glance at the clock in his room let both of them decide to get some sleep. Being late for class and tired would not be good.
Mor awoke the next morning to a world of pain, his whole body just hurt. °What is this, it hurts!°
°I don´t know! I did nothing while you were asleep!°
°You must have! Why else would it be like this?° Mor scolded the human.
°Don´t get snippy with me! I will slap you! And with your own hand no less!° They countered.
°And why I´m the only one in pain, that is unfair!° Mor complained.
°Why would you think that? I feel the pain too, it´s just not as bad as you say. You are just a little wuss.° The human said.
°I´m no wuss, I never had this kind of pain before!° Mor grumbled.
°Really? If I had to describe it it feels just like a little soreness in the muscles... Ah! Maybe, me moving your body is more stressful, than you moving your own. Even if you are distracted you subconsciously try to fight my control. That would make sense, but we can´t know for sure.° Human theorized.
°Really? And now? If this is what happens this is not acceptable!° Mor was still whining.
°Well easy, we will test your theory, that you can´t train your bodies, because, with this new development, I smell bullshit and laziness. Time to train and limber up!° Mor whinced at that exclamation of the human. °We will do nothing like that!° He exclaimed.
°We will, and I will force you if I need to.° The human stated matter of factly. °I hate you.° Mor grumbled.
°Yes. Yes! Let the hate flow through you!° The human snickered. °Still, I won´t let you just opt out without trying!°

I wanna just preface by saying that I know I'm partially responsible for this shift in dynamic; I've always been an introvert and not always the most stellar friend because of it. I've said no to plans, I've bailed, shit happens, right? I know that's on me. Relationships go both ways. I'm at the point where I'm afraid to try and take the initiative, though. I'm afraid of the potential rejection.
My core friend group is my three siblings and our partners. I'm only actual literal siblings to one of them, the other two are my cousins (and siblings to each other), but we're close as can be and have been our whole lives. Our moms (sisters) are each other's best friend and their respective firstborns (one of whom is me) were born only six weeks apart from each other. We have a lot of cousins but we're separated enough from the closest ones to our ages that we were always our own little "demographic" in the family, so to speak.
I'm very close with my sibling, and despite my cousins being the only cousins who lived out of town growing up, almost an hour away, they're the ones we saw the most. We did everything together. The four of us share so many memories. I love them all dearly. We're all grown up now, we all have a partner and are either married or engaged by this point, and I love all the plus ones too!
But
I've always been a shy and introverted person. My siblings, I was NEVER timid with; I'm effortlessly comfortable with them, always have been. But, being the type of introvert who can be drained by social situations, as I got older and had to work soul crushing jobs, and ESPECIALLY when I had a job with wildly unpredictable hours making it difficult to make/stick to plans, I didn't always say yes to invites.
Saying that, I see how it's not totally fair. They've all cancelled plans too, it's normal. But something is different with me. Something changed. The first time I felt left out, we were teenagers and I was waiting for them to call me to hang out at the mall, and they neglected to do so. When I called them, they were all already there. Without me. I was devastated.
That's just a one-off mistake though. As we grew older and were able to drive ourselves to places I like to think we did a lot together. Fishing, hiking, board game nights, movies, just hanging out. But then covid hit, and something is different now.
Along with the pandemic came the most difficult period of my life. I was going through the grueling process of helping my once long-distance partner immigrate so we could be together, and I was facing severe emotional abuse at the hands of another friend group. I was just so... defeated a lot of the time. Tired. Hating myself. Struggling to get out of bed some days. Just wanting to stew in my misery. Quarantine made it harder, because even the option to see them all was gone.
My sibling was the only one able to attend my wedding when we had to uninvite everyone. Fine, that's nobody's fault. It sucks, it hurts, but I get it. I don't really have the right to complain, and I don't want to anyway, I don't blame anybody.
It was because of social restrictions that I was the only one not there for my cousin's proposal. I understand why I was the one left out, but fuck, it still hurt. I'm the only one of the four of us who had no part in cousin's wedding. I understand not being part of the wedding party, but I wasn't ever even asked to help with... anything. Not even just decorating the hall. They all stayed in a cabin the night before, which I understand where I wasn't part of the party, I wasn't part of that but... Fuck I didn't even KNOW I was the only one left out until the day of, made all the worse with my partner not being able to attend. I'd never felt so alone in such a big crowd. But, that day wasn't about me. I hid and had a little cry but I pulled it together and got through it. I had to leave early to catch a flight, so I missed the real party, but again that's nobody's fault. And I don't want to make anyone feel bad about how sad it all made me. I don't want to sour that day.
A little while ago, cousin invited me over for some gaming, and I had to cancel last minute due to a migraine. I felt awful and apologized profusely. They and my sibling played together another day instead, I later learned.
More recently, I heard my sibling mention in passing that there was a day out fishing with cousin. We used to do that together, all three of us. Why wasn't I invited? But these two are the best friends you'd ever see, and I get they wanna do things together themselves sometimes.
Last week, cousin invited me to a board game night, but my partner was working and I didn't wanna be a third wheel with cousin and his spouse having just had some devastating news. I'd only just heard of said news a few hours before and was admittedly afraid of the idea of being the only other one there but... Turns out I'd've been the fifth wheel. I wish I had known. I would've gone.
This weekend, we lit our firepit for the first time and I asked in the group chat if anyone wanted to come and hang out. No takers. That's ok, it was very last minute anyway. Maybe another time.
Just today. Pictures on FB. Cousin took a week-long vacation and the others joined up with them now and then. Fishing, hiking, just hanging out.
I read this awful post once. "Every group chat has a second group chat excluding one member. If you're not part of that chat, it's you."
It's me.
But I have no right to complain. Like I said, cousin got some bad news and I don't want to pile on. My sibling's wedding is being complicated by in-law drama, so now's not the time to be sad over my ruined nuptials. That trip was about my cousin's partner proposing to her, I shouldn't make it about me. My spouse is a total homebody, he's not too bothered that as my plus one he's being excluded too. He knows I'm hurt by these things, but I don't want to worry him when he's adjusting to the stresses of a new job, so I can't talk about it like this with him right now.
These are the main recent examples. I know this is just a few incidents. I know they might seem small or petty to some. I know I'm still loved... don't I? When I was beckoned to join my siblings for a photo at the wedding, just the core four of us and the bride... For a second there, a terrible fleeting moment, I didn't believe it was me they were beckoning. Why would they? It's me.
It's only me.
If they don't want me there for the good times, why would I ever want to burden them with my bad feelings.

My gf (26f) and (27m)had been together for about 3 years. My gf has some insecurities and issues that she projected onto me and she also had a habit of leaving and packing up her things whenever it got a bit tough. (I think this is because of her dad not being around and leaving when she was younger but l asked her to please not do that anymore). I tried my best to be a trusting and loyal boyfriend, I'd never cheat on her but she would go through my phone and treat me like a cheater for any reason. (For example searching up an old female friend on IG, or their being girls on my discovery page). I know one could think I had ill intention but it was not the case. There was definitely a lack of trust but I do not think I gave her a reason to feel like that. She had a very big issue with me watching porn which I know is a topic with different opinions. I would only watch and masturbate when she was not with me. I did try to quit porn but found myself back to it when I was alone.. I do think that maybe a problem for me but I told her I do not compare her to pictures on a screen. We broke up for these kinds of reasons and got back together after about 3 months. I really thought the time away was going to make us closer and relationship better but we ended up fighting alot when we were back together. The first date we had she walked out on me and told me she would just get an Uber home. This is because I was trying to tell her that my friends gf likes her and wants to be her friend and she felt I was defending her over her. She always thinks I treat everyone way better than her especially when we were out with friends. I do not want to have to be purposely mean to people".. her to feel like I treat her well. I decided to end i v again as I'm terrified we will have a lifetime of th problems and I don't want to be divorced after a short marriade. She asked me for another chance and was telling me all the things I wish I heard from her before like what she wants to change to make it work, but I felt I had made my mind. It's been 3 weeks now and I feel so messed up and I can only really focus clearly on the good things we had. I feel like it's going to be near impossible to find a connection with somone like that again. I'm fighting myself not to message her and l'm having some of the worst days of my life. I can't focus on work and I'm not sure what to do. I'm feeling like I could have done more now and what I should have done differently and asking myself if it was my fault she felt this way. I tried my best to make her feel loved and beautiful would always make me feel like she felt so terrible around me
