2023.06.02 01:10 4ngelwurld talking stages dos and donts??? (19f) & (19m)
Recently i've gotten myself into a "talking stage" or like a prior relationship area. while the point of these talking stages are to slowly build connections all that stuff yk so ur able to have a fully committed relationship. my question is: is it okay to hang around other people/bring someone around your friends while in one? recently the person i'm talking to has made it clear even though we're talking he's still going to be hanging around with other girls while we're hanging out. a day after we spent together he texted another girl "wyd today" (something he never even asks me) he then continues to invite her to go to the bowling alley with his friends (also doesn't do that with me) then the next day they went to a concert together. i've expressed my concerns, told him how i felt that i don't think it's right to be doing that while wanting a relationship with someone else but he disagrees saying he can hangout with whoever he wants be we're still technically single. when i ask him about it, he expressed how they weren't alone how all his friends were there too, how if he's he gonna hangout with a girl he makes sure there's other people there too. when i bring this up with him he got mad and told me that he's not intimate with other girls or bring them home, that he just hangs out with them be he simply can and it's fun. when i ask him about the girl specifically he tells me they just hangout as friends that he thinks she's cool, he said he'd probably will continue to ask her to hangout. it might just be insecurities in me talking but going to a party, concert and hanging around his friends together feels a bit bothersome, especially when he doesn't do that with me.
i still feel this isn't okay but i guess other people have different opinions and would like to know if i’m in the wrong for feeling this way.

2023.06.02 01:10 chrisborgphoto Client doesn't want to pay ! HELP!?
So here's the story...
I'm a freelance videographer and photographer and never really had any client issues in the past five years apart from the odd back and forth with revisions once in a while but this is definitely a first !!
Client based in Italy, shot some videos and photos for them in March. Finished the work and sent everything gradually to them with the final link arriving early April, as agreed in the contract that was digitally signed on Dropbox Sign by both of us. I'd like to add that I provided 3x the amount of photos, and provided the work about 3 weeks early than agreed.
Client ghosted me for the past 7 weeks. I tried calling about 30 times. 5 whatsapp messages. 5 emails.
Nothing. Payment date was expired by two weeks so I sent him a final warning said I would take legal action and all of a sudden he sent me a Whatsapp message a day later so it must of scared him.
But he only said he didn't like the first link which was one of the videos so he didn't bother even looking at any of the other videos and photos - he said he gives me his word he is not going to use the media and said he would pay for my transport because "court would not be good for the both of us".
On a separate note, I'm not 100% but I think he is not happy with the outcome because he has a flaky wall and building is not complete next door so obviously this is evident in some of the footage. Again his attitude is completely unprofessional imo because he said he didn't even open the other videos and photos.. which include also interior, some of which are perfect for use + that he just didn't pick up my calls or answer my emails instead of confronting me with the truth. This guy is a business owner in his 50s acting like a 14 yo.
So.. I sent him an email stating this and explaining my position offering a discounted amount seeing that he was "unhappy" and to pay within 5 days. final offer.
4 days gone so far and still no response.
The amount in question is EUR 2,000 - so not a small amount but at this stage I feel this has consumed so much of my time it's more about not letting this guy treat me like this. P.S. Contract states the work to be done and that I should be paid for my services within a set timescale, doesn't say anywhere that he has a get out clause or anything like this.
AND
I've just searched about him online and found that he was also in court a few years ago in a tax evasion case of hundreds of thousands of Euros which it seems they weren't able to close and he got away with so I guess he feels a bit untouchable especially with a nobody like me.
What would you do next / in what order ??? (done some homework already)
- Letter from Lawyers in Italy - Cost 200 euro p/letter. No action taken if he rips it up but might scare him more
- Debt Collection Agency in Italy - Cost 75 euro and they send letters, calls, emails, and also go to his business. They also then take about 200 euro if they manage to get the money from him.
- Small Claims Court in EU - I thought this was straight forward but it's not even that clear whether I need to do it in Italian, online or by post, it's a bit confusing so sent them an email but haven't heard back yet. It's also unclear whether Italy will take any action if I submit without a lawyer. I was thinking this is my best option because I have all his whatsapp messages and emails + the contract which I would imagine is in my favour.
- Tribunal in Italy - sent them emails on 3 addresses nothing back yet. They seem useless tbh
- Hiring a lawyer in Italy - they told me this wouldn't be worth it so guess it could cost more than the amount in the end.
- Go there (3 hour drive) in peak season and ask him for my payment face to face in a non confrontational way but still making a bit of a scene in front of his clients.
- Out him on his and my social media, google review etc..
Sorry for the long post but wanted to make sure I didn't miss any important info.
Any advice from anyone who had any situation like this or who have dealt with Small Claims in EU maybe ? or any advice really ! Cheers - Chris

2023.06.02 01:10 InformalPaper2065 16 months after I broke up with her, she's still on my mind
I (26M) broke up with my ex gf (26F) 16 months ago and I still can't seem to stop thinking about her. She was my first relationship and we had spent 3 years together through highs and lows. The reason for the break up was because I didn't think we were compatible enough for marriage and I had things I wanted to do which would've been harder in a relationship.
After we broke up, I did everything I could do to get over her. I originally spent lots of time alone then I started traveling, partying and dating. Eventually I even moved to a new city with a new job, picking up new hobbies and making new friends.
The only problem is that I still think about her almost everyday. The emotions when thinking of her aren't nearly as strong as they were in the first 10 months, but anytime I have time to think, she ventures into my train of thought.
I'm not sure if there is anything more I could do about it or if I just wait for time to heal all.

2023.06.02 01:09 Hammy_1420 Losing a friend
I'm a new parent. My husband and I adopted our son (8y) last year so it's very new and also we just jumped into parenting at a very different stage so it's just different. Anyway, my friend (who I considered to be a very good friend) will not acknowledge my child. I kept mentioning adoption day was coming up because obviously this was a big deal. The day came and went and she did not acknowledge it. We were going on our first family vacation and she wouldn't talk about it at all. She won't respond to pictures or let me just share a story about him. I know she doesn't like kids very much but Jesus Christ I've been a mom for a year why can't I just talk about it occasionally? I don't believe its over the top or anything..but yeah I want to share stuff with her and I feel like I can't. It's been such a cool experience and the first year is over and that should have been the time she just tried to care bit more. I've tried to share stuff about how it is just different in a really cool way..like when he asked us to adopt him and the first time he called me.mom. Big moments. I don't want to be a baby about this but I can't feel the way I do and just continue with the friendship like nothing is wrong. But it's been a year and I've said nothing. Any advice??

2023.06.02 01:09 Zealousideal-Leek868 What makes you a tank in the pit?
What extracurricular activities can you say have made you better equipped to handle an ignorant-ass dummy-ass, "if he dies, he dies" kinda pit like a fucking unit? What will build you up to be stronger than the average internet newcomer?
For me, it was sports. I grew up playing hockey as an undersized defenseman. My balance is tested and nobody's knocking me off my feet in normal shoes, even if they come flying from across the room. I also got super into skateboarding as a teenager. Nothing will toughen you up faster than eating pavement on the daily and getting back up.
When I got into more aggressive music and moshing in general, it seemed like I'd been training my whole life to pit. It's physical, visceral, painful, and highly energetic, with a hint of danger.
Anyone else feel like they were built for it? And why?

2023.06.02 01:08 phasing0ut Need help deciding - take entry level FA at large not-for-profit healthcare or stay as audit senior
Hi all, I am currently an audit senior in a M/HCOL area and have been planning a career change out of accounting/finance to law (I was pre-law in college before switching to accounting), but I was able to land an offer as a financial analyst at a large not-for profit healthcare system:
Current position - 3 YOE at top 20 CPA firm, $97k (salary + bonus), nearly full remote (but this could change), specialized on investment fund clients, strong focus on auditing PE/VC investment valuations and portfolio companies' budgets/projections which I find pretty interesting. Busy seasons suck but culture is good otherwise and I have great relationships with firm leadership
Offer - entry level financial analyst at $10b+ revenue NFP healthcare system, $80k per year (they didn't mention bonus structure but 100% of healthcare costs covered), full in-office, position seems to have a strong focus on budgeting with more focus on decision support as you move up. They emphasized that the work was complex and they work hard but it's also an hourly position with strict 40/hr work week due the org's rules (??).
My gut says to turn it down due to the pay cut and continue with my law school plans, but part of me also wants to try something else in this field before taking on grad school debt with the legal field as competitive as it is. However, I'm also worried about getting pigeonholed into healthcare finance - I'm stuck in financial services now and don't want to just replace that with something else. I've probably applied to 20 FP&A positions in my area that I was qualified for and this was all I could land. I could wait for new postings but this one had 200+ applications and I'm surprised I even got this one.
Is this really how rough the early career job market is in FP&A now? Would I be pigeonholed in healthcare finance? Have I been gaslit by public accounting expectations or am I being set up to fail with high expectations on an hourly schedule?
Ultimately I'm looking for a more fulfilling job - I can find that in either FP&A or law, but I need to decide now.

2023.06.02 01:08 No_Brief_124 Well... I finally got around to doing cool stuff.
I've been struggling with things lately. The straw that broke the camels back was watching my father watch "surviving abuse in a narcissistic relationship" Keep in mind 2 years ago I was dodging right hooks. The AA "fellowship" is continuing to talk down to me. I'll admit I get a sense of satisfaction knowing one of the up and comers has already relapsed and is carting people that just got out of rehab around. I tried to talk to him, but it went no where. Physically, I am in a lot of pain, usually about a 3 -4 24/7. I have begun doing yoga more frequently to help.
I about went insane being on a rest week. I finally got to work out and it was a shit show. I was just moving things around. Not really any form. I had been waiting on the job offer and started to have my doubts and maybe I didn't knock it out of the park, like I thought. I had been on 3rd shift for the past 6 days and trying to fit exercise, 3rd shift, and then day to day annoyances, and facture in the "I'm a survivor" attitude. I am just done. I went into a gas station and told them I'd start working Monday and to send and offer letter and THEY DID. Matched with someone I knew in addiction and they are sober the same time as me. Kinda sucks because I plan on moving and I just don't know if I can handle any of that. Did my first shift today, then I just left for Land Between the Lands with my dog. I spent about 4 hours out there with her. I'm editing the stuff, but when I got back... I got the job offer! They told me that I just need to tell them when I am moved and set up and I'll start the next day. So tits! Full gov Benefits in like 90 days. I am still going to be like 1600$ short from comfortably moving. Even with the second job. I am thinking, I can sell my washer and dryer, since I won't need it. 1300$ is doable. I'll just keep the second job and transfer for to the gas station down in Nashville and work that for the first two months I am there.. It'll even out.
Anyway, I am editing the stuff.. There is a lot of Elsa vision in there.

2023.06.02 01:08 Volodio The fourth ruler of the new Argead dynasty
| If you guys are uninterested, just downvote and I'll stop posting. First ruler Second ruler Third ruler Alexandros VII the Huntmaster (968 – 1006) https://preview.redd.it/q01kat34nh3b1.jpg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=60fb4025936ab514351ba026c7939acc3bdc4e60 After the death of Alexandros VI, there were three men to succeed him. The first was Hypatios, the second son who had been on numerous campaigns and had ruled with his father for years. The second was Kaisarios, the third son who had always stayed at court, never participating in any campaign. The third was Alexandros. He was the 19-year-old son of Hephaistion, making him the grandson of Alexandros VI, though fortunately for him he was not an albino like his father. Hypatios was away when his father died and did not hear the news until several weeks later. Alexandros and Kaisarios, who were both at the court, tried to gather supporters. Kaisarios focused on other members of the Argead dynasty, descendants of the previous Argead leaders through their daughters and their loyal followers, while Alexandros tried to win the favor of the new nobility. He was successful and notably received the support of Theodotos, who gave him the army. Alexandros VII declared himself despot and took control of Athens. Kaisarios fled to Krete where he also declared himself despot. Hypatios, when he discovered what had happened, went to Cyprus where he had some support and claimed to be despot. After a few weeks, the three Argeads were focused on ruling their lands and increasing their support in the areas they controlled. Their lands also had not fully recovered from the wars of Alexandros VI. They were all too busy to prepare for a war against each other and a status quo was established, temporarily. The next year, the Roman civil war ended with a victory of Leon VIII. The lands controlled by the Argeads had been spared, which had allowed them to gather support to themselves. They particularly made sure the nobility would support the Argeads instead of the Basileus in case of a war between both sides. Alexandros VII was discovered during that period to be a ruler as fair and just as his grandfather had been. Progressively, he became disinterested from Krete and Cyprus, but was too powerful for Hypatios and Kaisarios to bother him. They spent most of their reign focusing on internal matters. In 972, Alexandros VII married Alfrhildr, a woman from a prestigious northern family. The next year, she gave birth to a daughter, Leontia. In 974, he attacked the Constanta family for some of their lands in Bulgaria. The victory of the Argeads had encouraged many Roman families to try their hand in the kingdom of Bulgaria. After a few years, many held lands here. Theodotos was put in charge of 3 000 men and went in the mountains to fight the war. The Constantas had not much support for they were in the edge of the Empire and thus the conflict quickly ended with an Argead victory. During those years, Alexandros continued making sure he had the support of the nobility, not only by maintaining good relations with the heads of the families but with the other members as well. Some Christian families even accepted to abandon Christ, something which showed a great support toward the Argeads. He ruled his lands fairly and invested in them, especially in Attica. In 977, Alexandros VII had another daughter named Aigidia. Alfrhildr died a few months later of a disease. He remarried to Hypatia, a Greek noble. The next year, Theodotos died in his bed. The despot used the occasion to pressure the Skleros family to renounce Jesus, which they did as a result of the diplomatic efforts of Alexandros over the years. In 979, Hypatia gave birth to a girl, Helene. In 980, the despot was invited to a prestigious position at the court of Leon VIII. He went here and tried to find support among the Roman nobility against the Basileus. In 981, Alexandros attacked the Pastillas family. He wanted to counter their influence in Epirus and thus attacked their base in Asia Minor, specifically their lands in Kibyrrhaiotai. He sent Niphon, the widow of Alexandros VII’s sister Agne, who had died a few years prior, with 3 300 soldiers to wage this war. The Pastillas’ first strategy was to stall by hiding in their forts while they called for the intervention of Leon VIII. However, the despot used his influence at court to prevent any imperial meddling in the conflict. In 982, the Pastillas finally chose to face the Argead army. With 1 200 men, they tried one last stand at the Battle of Adrassos but they were defeated. Following the battle, one part of the family made an internal coup and negotiated a surrender with Alexandros, weakening his family but strengthening himself. He agreed to submit to the Argeads and have all of his former subjects also submit, and in exchange he kept Kibyrrahaiotai. To show their commitment, he abandoned Christ. With this victory, the Argeads finally had full control of Epirus once again and also more than tripled the size of the area under their influence in Asia Minor. That same year, Hypatia had another daughter, Kyra. In 984, Alexandros caught wind of a conspiracy by the Bulgarians who wanted to retake their lands. They were negotiating with the owners of the forts for a pacific transition in order to force the Argeads to abandon the area if they did not want to be engaged in a long and costly war. This plot was led by Petar, a man living in the kingdom of Wallachia, north of the Danube. To prevent it from happening, Alexandros sent Niphon with 3 500 men to invade a part of Wallachia called Oltenia. At the same time, Hypatia gave her husband another daughter, Garyphallia. The campaign lasted some time as Niphon captured each fort. In 986, he defeated the king of Wallachia at the Battle of Rusii de Vede, forcing him to renounce control of the region. Soon, the local nobility swore allegiance to the Argeads in order to keep their lands. Petar had been killed during the war, putting an end to the plot. In 988, Leon VIII was involved in a war against the Pope in Italy. The campaign turned into a disaster as the Catholics hired many mercenaries and completely destroyed the imperial roman army. This was deemed the perfect occasion by Alexandros VII who, in 989, stopped paying taxes to the Basileus and declared he would stop serving him. Leon VIII reacted by immediately trying to take the Argead forts in Greece. He quickly raised some men to kill the rebellion before it really began. However, Niphon was already here with 3 700 soldiers. He easily defeated the first army. Despite this victory, all of the nobles in the Eastern Roman Empire stayed loyal to the Basileus, including the Argeads from Krete and Cyprus, who had created their own family. The next year, another army of 4 200 men was raised and sent to Greece, but it was defeated at the Battle of Corinth in May, thanks to the better terrain. More men were recruited, including mercenaries. However, by that point they were divided instead of following a single command. Niphon exploited it by defeating each army separately. In 991, Leon VIII died, as did Alexandros’ daughter Helene. The new Basileus was the 8-year-old Anthimos. Because of his age, he was not in charge of ruling and the Roman nobility squabbled among each other to gain as much power as they could. As a result, the war against Alexandros had a lesser focus. Especially as a lot of the nobles had been captured on the battlefield and forced to pay heavy ransoms to go back to their lands. Moreover, he was an important rival of theirs. After a few months, they agreed to give Alexandros VII his independence in the name of the Basileus, hoping with him out of the Empire he would stop troubling them. Alexandros VII’s first decision as an independent ruler was to create an order of warriors dedicated to the defense of the Argead’s rule. They were called the Myrmidons, as a reference to Achilles that Alexander the Great loved so much, and led by Gregoras. In 992, Alexandros invaded Bulgaria. It was still ruled by Simeon II, now very old. The king had spent his life fighting many enemies and seeing his kingdom slowly weaken. The Myrmidons were tested during this conflict as they were called to participate in the invasion, bringing the total number of Argead soldiers to 5 300. They encountered little resistance as the Bulgarians were busy in other wars, as they had been consistently for the duration of Simeon II’s reign. After a year and a half of war, Simeon II agreed to surrender Moesia, which represented half of what was left of his kingdom, in exchange for the end of the invasion. The conquered area was given to Niphon as a reward for all of his efforts during Alexandros’ reign. In 995, Alexandros attacked duchess Ruxandra of Vedin. The next year, as the campaign was ongoing, another part of the Pastillas family attacked Alexandros to take the land of their kin. They were helped by many other Roman families. The despot negotiated with Ruxandra, she would swear allegiance and keep her titles and possessions, then he was free to focus his efforts on the Roman nobles. The Myrmidons were once again called. In total, the Argeads had 6 500 soldiers. While the army prepared for the campaign, Alexandros accepted he would not have a son and decided it was time to confirm his daughters as heir, and in particular Leontia who was showing a lot of skills necessary for ruling. They were married to members of prestigious Varangian houses as princesses of the highest rank. The campaign began in 997. It started with the Battle of Cremnia in December, when Niphon defeated the 6 200 men of the Roman nobles. It was followed by a series of sieges until the Battle of Smyrna in August 999, during which the Romans were once again defeated. They negotiated a truce a few months later, giving a heavy ransom in exchange for the return of their forts. Alexandros used that gold to improve his court, showing the world he was really a ruler in his own right, and continued spending it profusely on his domain. In 1002, Alexandros VII attacked the duchy of Rashka, ruled by a cabal of nobles acting in the name the 6-year-old duchess, Lyudmila. The despot justified his invasion by claiming to wanting to help the child get rid of bad influence. Niphon died of natural causes during the war. After his death, the command of the army was divided, which was especially necessary for the warfare in the mountains of the region. The war ended in 1005, when the nobles accepted to surrender Lyudmila, who was brought to Athens to be personally raised by Alexandros, with Alexandros’ men staying to rule in her absence. That same year, the despot took Konstantia, an Argead from Krete loosely related to him, as his concubine. Despite his acknowledgement of his daughters as heir, he was still hoping for a son. Alexandros VII died of natural causes in 1006, at 56. Alexandros VII is the one who really made the independence of the Argeads happen. Despite the trouble they caused to the previous Basileus, the Argeads overall still benefited the Empire greatly thanks to the exorbitant taxes imposed on them. That loss, decided by the noble families more concerned by their own struggle to power rather than anything else, was devastating to the Eastern Roman Empire as a whole which became weaker than ever. It is important to note that despite becoming independent, Alexandros VII is not the one who really remade the Argead Empire. He still called himself despot, and was usually referred to as the Despot, as the only other despots, of Krete and Cyprus, were insignificant in comparison. When historical documents mentioned the realm he ruled, they usually called it Hellas, as he was ruling from Athens which was his center of power. But it was nothing official.

2023.06.02 01:08 crazykid087 Interesting thoughts on restaurant's management style....(host rant)
Hey all, nowhere else to post this but felt this general subreddit is a good one since its restaurant related.
I recently got hired by a corporate owned restaurant which I shall call the Fast and Furious franchise of the dining world.
After getting acclimated into my new environment for the past month, I can safely say I've got my footing in place.
Now not to sound too naive, but it seems when it comes to management, each one of the 5 have a rather unique way of handling things. And I myself like certain one's way better than others. However, first and foremost, I am lucky to at least have all of management to have their employees backs and investing trust in their staff.
My main issue is that sometimes, it's hard to figure out what the final ruling on certain situations is and that creates some internal conflict during decision time.
So I have one GM, and he is a great guy. He values each of his staff and their uniqueness. He isn't a strict uniform type of guy. Just show up and do your best and listen. As long as you know you did your best, whenever a mistake is made, if you be honest and tell him, he'll always have your back. However, bottom line though, he is very much the company man. Profit and money comes first at all times. I work as a host, and he is very much, SLAM THE SERVERS. Guests shouldnt be waiting in the lobby if there are open tables. Which as you can see can be a problem if its been consistently busy. He despises when we try to create a "false wait" (which is something I personally hate doing but if I need to buy time, I need to buy time). He is also all about "cutting" staff if we can save money. If its not at peak busy high volume, it's time to tell people to go home. Which sucks when I get sent out to hunt down servers to tell them hi, I know you travelled far to get here but you've got to go. Like I'm a blade runnner and the servers are rogue replicants. Sometimes, it's like playing hide and seek with them (the place is rather huge). My only pet gripe with my GM is that despite having 4 other managers working there, no one should be helping the front desk. Which, I mean thanks for giving our host crew autonomy a majority of the time but sometimes I need them. (Further explained)
Then we have some of the AGMs, which are two. One of them is my favorite, this old dude who reminds me of my dad. He is the kind of guy that doles out cheesy dad jokes. He is responsible for all of our technical hardware for the restaurant and anything technology related. Basically, he makes the unseen stuff working for our crew. When the lighting isn't working or somethings wrong with the pipes or the Walkin, he is our go to guy to get it fixed. He is also, one of the best schmoozers I have ever seen with guests. You've got a table that seems like it just keeps going south, you send him over there and he smooths things over so well. A jolly fun type of guy. Just don't let him micromanage any of the front desk stuff or the window, and it'll be okay.
Then the other AGM, is the one who micromanages everything. And she does it really well. She is my go-to person whenever I have questions or need feedback on something. Normally she's in the back though expediting and making sure the kitchen plays well with the staff.
Then there's the 2 managers underneath the mentioned 3. They mostly work with the front desk so I have the most interaction with them. Both of them have a lot of experience working as hosts and servers in other branches prior to them coming to our location, so they know their stuff. And have a lot of empathy for the crew. One of them, is currently someone I thought was rather lazy but over the recent holiday, was helping me literally clean shit from the bathroom. He actually cleaned the toilet and did the gross tasks while I was mopping. So now my viewpoint has changed on him. The other one has a lot of experience with hosting and serving, so this is when these two's theories and styles opposes the GMs. They always tell us to check with servers and ask them their current mental state. Can they take another table? Because the idea is if they can't then we at the front know and can make alternate plans. Seating a server that is in the weeds, we've already done something we can't fix and costs us having to comp or fix something. Also, when its rather busy, sometimes servers won't complain or say anything to anyone. So, this is where communication is key.
I lead this into a situation when our GM got upset one day about a small wait, because the pilot (our person in charge of seating) wanted to check if certain servers where ready to be sat. The GM only sees money being wasted when its just sitting in the lobby instead of at the table. So after that tirade, both of the 2 younger managers came up and said that despite all of that, no matter what, our GM is our GM and has final say. So now, if things looks like its going to shit, Id have to find them to help the servers that need help.
I know this was rather long winded, but having to play politics and make decisions that satisfies both ideals is kind of stressful. I see the merits in both management styles and theories as to why one side is the best vs. the other. But i also do not want to promote infighting either. When the GM got upset and asked why we were doing what we were doing, instead of saying because so and so said so, i Just said, it was my idea i'm sorry.

2023.06.02 01:08 BornElk4010 Which sling do I get for this gun?
| What sling do I get for this gun? It’s confusing because it has a sling attachment but only on the front. And then on the back it has like this little bulb and I have seen sling attachers that attach to the holes in the locks. I don’t understand. Do I get a one point sling, attach it to the back and then loop it through the front? Or get a two point sling and attach it to the front and somehow the back? Or just get a 2 point with its own attachers so I can put it in. I want a 2 point sling but this is just weird. Also… when is it gunna be In stock god damn it. submitted by BornElk4010 to airsoft [link] [comments] |

2023.06.02 01:07 Decent_Muffin8945 My best friend (28M) said he liked me (29F) and pursued me, then said he wasn't ready. Pls help.
Okay a bit to this story. Looking for some honest advice.
I (29F) recently dated a guy who had been my best friend (28M) for years. He made the first move and admitted he liked me, and he was going to be in my city the following week, so we decided to see how it would go. We went out for dinner, and one date turned in to a week of being inseperable. He asked me to see him every night and put off plans with his friends for me. The banter, the butterflies, the s*x.. I felt like I was in a god damn movie.
For context, he knew I wasn't looking for something casual. I've been burnt a lot in the past by men, and he knew that. I've been single for years and he's about 10 months out of his break up, so we didn't want to rush things. He said he was over it but wasnt sure if he was ready for a relationship just yet, which was fine as I wasnt ready either at the time. He lives a few hours away so we knew it would be long distance for a while but we were both committed to giving it a go, and both agreed to be exclusive.
He rained all the compliments on me, told me things like "I don't want to f*ck this up", "I've found my diamond", "you're a dream", "you are wifey material", "I see my future when I look in to your eyes". He also bumped in to his ex before seeing me on his last night, but said he knew in that moment that it was me he wanted. He said all the things a girl wants to hear. We had a great physical and emotional connection. My feelings really grew over the week and I told him that I do like him, and want to keep seeing him. But he started acting distant on the last day he was here, and then when he went home he was really dismissive about seeing me again, and was really hot and cold. His actions werent matching with what he had been saying to me all week.
I felt so confused so I asked where I stood and he dumped the "I'm not ready at this point. Not saying I won't ever be but I'm not ready yet" then says he still really likes me and has 0 intentions of pursuing anything else. I got so many mixed signals 🥺 especially because he was the one who pursued this and then when my feelings matched his, he got scared and pushed me away.
I told him I will not wait for him, that him saying these things felt like I was being led on. He thinks being exclusive only meant not sleeping with other people and didn't understand it was the step before a relationship. He said he can't give me what I want because he's not in the same city. Looking back now, I think he was just saying whatever he could to get me in bed for his fun week away. As if he was only after a f*ck buddy and someone to talk to, even though he knew I didn't want that.
He let me walk away so easily and didn't fight for it at all. I feel so mind f*cked and genuinely didn't think a friend would treat me this way. I think this hurts more than any guy in the past, because he knew what I wanted and would always say I deserved the best.
He sold me a dream and then got scared. Idk if hes holding back the truth, but he couldnt give me any answer on what I had done, what about me is missing for him. I feel so lost. I miss him. I just want to talk to him like it used to be. I'm devastated that I didn't mean as much to him as he said.
Any honest advice for how to navigate this and heal? Why are men like this? It's honestly not the first time it's happened and It's getting to the point where I feel like I'm not good enough for anyone.
