Hey everyone, first time on here. I wanted to get everyone’s opinion on what I should do. I frequently as in almost everyday at this point see this girl who I get along great with and the relationship is extremely playful and flirty. She says the whole not ready for a relationship thing and doesn’t seem interested in me like that. But she gets really mad at me if I’m not super outgoing playful and flirt with her. I’ve tried being less playful and then she gets mad at me, she also says how similar we are. We get along great and seems like their may be something there but again I’m not sure how to respond because normally I would think it’s just for attention but I don’t want to assume that. I asked her out before and she agreed and then cancelled the day before as well. Again not sure how to respond to it because on my side I do have interest in her but I also can’t read her at all and don’t know how to react.

I am making a spreadsheet for work regarding work orders. The data I'm currently using is the date the project is due, the quantity due, and the remainder of the project to finish. So the boss wants it sorted into weekly periods so I am currently using this equation " =Sum(FILTER('Job Board'!F3:F300,'Job Board'!C3:C300="LN 3/6/23"))+Sum(FILTER('Job Board'!F3:F300,'Job Board'!C3:C300="LN 3/7/23"))+Sum(FILTER('Job Board'!F3:F300,'Job Board'!C3:C300="LN 3/8/23"))+Sum(FILTER('Job Board'!F3:F300,'Job Board'!C3:C300="LN 3/9/23"))+Sum(FILTER('Job Board'!F3:F300,'Job Board'!C3:C300="LN 3/10/23")) " However the issue is not every day has something due, and when there is nothing due it generates an error instead of a zero? Does anyone know how to fix this?
Additionally instead of manually entering the dates I would to tie them into a single collum that goes something along the lines of 6-March-10. Is that possible?
Thank you in advance and sorry if I sound jumbled.

Trigger warning: Death in the family
I have been so excited for D4 for a long time but unfortunately I've lost my baby sister in law this week and itll be a long time before I can leave my wife's side. If anyone reads this please remember to check in with your loved ones over the next few weeks. It's great to get lost in the world of Diablo, slapping demons and hunting that upgrade (or hopefully one day soon, rune), but just remember to make the effort to stay connected to those around you.
I've seen a lot of great plans from how people planned on getting the whole weekend off for release, my plan for today was to ask my sister in law to surprise my wife with a movie night.

Looking to trade in my series S with original controller at gamestop and get credit towards a series X, however the controller was spray painted and taken apart a few times for personal repairs. I have a powerup pro membership and trade in used would be $192 in store credit (albeit if it was brand new and lightly used), about how much would they knock off the trade in price or would they even take the trade in at all? The console itself is in perfect condition and working order and i still have all the original cables and accessories, the controller has just been self modified and has a broken servo on the right thumbstick which i never fixed and instead just bought a newer controller so i didnt have to keep messing with it and fixing it

I’m currently 7 1/2 months pregnant (18F) and have been with my BF (20M) for about three years. Now my boyfriend and I have had infidelity in the past before, a lot. Unfortunately it has messed me up and caused me to overthink every situation and think that he’s doing the worst. Some backstory, I’ve been around my boyfriend’s family for a long time always hanging out with them, always going on trips, being there on certain holidays, I was just always around, until I got pregnant. Yes, my boyfriend and I argue a lot but we are learning and growing. We were kids when we got together and didn’t know how to value a relationship so it’s been hard trying to get out of that stage to be a fully committed family together. Everything has been pretty good so far except for his parents.
When I found out I was pregnant my boyfriend was in New York picking up his older friend. Not to mention he’s lived above me for about two years now in a two-part house. We decide to go upstairs to go tell his parents. I was already nervous and my parents were completely okay with everything and we’re by my side. She seemed shocked and his stepdad just seemed out of it completely. Now I just thought that they were in shock because his stepdads daughter was also pregnant. So I thought it would just be good to give them time to realize what was actually happening. So my boyfriend would spend most nights with me. One day I was allowed to come upstairs and his stepdad told us that the sleepovers have to cut down a lot.
I was confused as to why because I would get them up for work on time and he would do whatever he needed to do still. So after while we cut down. My boyfriend and I would argue. I would tell him how he’s not understanding how I feel about certain things or that he wasn’t taking me seriously. I started to feel my intuition tell me something was off with his phone and I asked him if I could see it he made it a big problem and wouldn’t let me and he went upstairs.The next day I asked him if he can come down to talk things out and show me and prove to me he’s serious about our relationship. What he told me made me flip shit it was the last straw for me. He said depends. He’s cheated a lot over the past 2 1/2 years on the phone on Snapchat, Instagram, dating apps, and more. I’ve caught him a lot and still stayed. Every time it hurt and made me think differently of myself. Now that I am having a daughter of my own I know that I do not deserve that.
So when he didn’t want to talk about things or show me his phone, everything of his and he gave me I started to throw out the window. My question is why did it take me to lose my shit for him to actually be serious with me. After many times where I forgave him and took him back and gave him more chances. After that we talked about things and figured it out. Yes there were things on there that I did not like and I told him the next time it happens I have to walk away. I reminded him how would he feel if a boy would ever do that to our little girl how would it make him feel. It has now been about five months and I’ve only been upstairs about two or three times. I’m getting to the point where it’s not right because they have another son and he is with this girl and she has been up stairs recently a lot. Now I’m realizing they didn’t need time to realize that I was pregnant they just didn’t want me up there because I was pregnant.
His own stepdad told me he wish I wasn’t pregnant. Now he had his first kid at 10 years old, altogether he has five kids. He has told me stories about how he messed around with many girls especially while with my boyfriends mother. Hearing that made me think that’s why boyfriend would cheat on me. That’s all he saw around the seven years that his stepdad has been with his mother. His stepdad would always hand us some weed to go have fun with. I would let my mom know just so she knows I’m safe while doing it. She understood that I am at the age where I’m going to try new things and do it either way. She just wants to make sure I’m safe.
His mother and my mom have argued a few times she thought I was trying to trap him but that was not true. I had to get my gallbladder removed and it was causing acid reflex and I could not take my birth control or my Zoloft medication and he knew. He still wanted to do it knowing the consequences that could happen. And that’s how I got pregnant. My boyfriend told me that they didn’t want me up there anymore and he respected that. Which I completely understand but it’s not fair because I know once my little girl is born they will try and have just her up there and I will not be okay with that.
They would always call me family to them. Now I just feel like I’m the baby mama. My boyfriend told me that his mom wants to take our baby when she’s around two years old with his brothers and his grandma to Disneyland or World one or the other. I asked what about me what he told me is that it’s a family thing that they do during the summer. Him saying that hurt, like I’m not family but he might have not meant it that way, but either way I told him she would not go not unless I would go. He said if anything he’ll just pay for my ticket. That’s not the point though after me being around for so long I’m not allowed to go on family trips anymore? I’m having two whole different baby showers one for my side of the family one for his side of the family. Now I understand that means double and more things which I don’t mind but why couldn’t we just have a big one. I understand that they’re both pretty far distances away but still it makes me think.
I recently argued with him that our baby girl is not going upstairs whatsoever when his stepdad is around or won’t be up there much. I’ve been upstairs once in a while but once his stepdad is on the way home I have to go back downstairs to my house. It’s mainly his stepdad but his mom is completely okay with it. That’s what I think is wrong, they haven’t been around my whole entire pregnancy I don’t want to give birth to my daughter and then all of a sudden they want my daughter upstairs all the time. It may be petty but it’s unfair to me, it’s like once I got pregnant they treated me completely different. His stepdad has a drug problem, and his mother has an alcohol problem, I don’t really want my daughter around that. my boyfriend recently told me the reason why I’m not allowed upstairs, I think there’s more to it though. His mother was drunk once and decided to call CPS on his stepdad’s niece. So if I’m being honest I don’t trust his mom and I don’t trust his stepdad.
So I told my boyfriend that our daughter will not be around them alone without me. I told him he will not bring her up there even if it’s to let me sleep. I will go anywhere my daughter goes. If they do not like the fact that I will be with her every single time she’s around them they do not have to see her at all. AITA?

Hey Guys! Just wanted to share my story and vent out a little.
​
Our party is composed of 5 PC, 2 of which are brand new to playing TTRP at all (me and another guy), and the DM has already hosted other two tables with the rest of party over the last 2 years. For the most part, it has been a great experience and I've decided I want to try and DM for the next campaign, since I've always wanted to give it a shot.
​
BUT, there are some not so little things that are really grinding my gears and syphoning my enjoyment out of the experience.
Our DM seem to ALWAYS blame us and our PC whenever something doesn't go as planned. I get it that there are a lot of times when our party act reckless and causes something not expected to happen, but when this complaint starts to appear after EVERY SESSION i think something is not quite right. I'll give some examples:
- Sometime between the third or fourth session half of our party were wiped out and needed to be replaced with new characters after the group split up and met an NPC that would act as an boss encounter later down the campaign. The group tried to talk their way out of the encounter, but the NPC wanted the party to give out the other PC's to his group, so that they could be sold as slaves. The party clearly did not want to abide to that, so the only outcome was to enter a combat. Only to be wiped by a single fireball. This lead to a whole argument about how we shouldn't fought this guy, because he was a late game boss and yada yada yada, and we should've just left promising to rat out our friends and then betray the NPC. But, bear with me, there were no single indication in the plot or the encounter that it was a possibility, or even that this NPC was a damn boss.
- Once we entered a dungeon where we needed to solve a puzzle so that we could access the chamber with the secrets and treasures. The jist of it is that we needed to choose the right option out of four symbols, easy right? But that was one of the most convoluted and not intuitive puzzles I've ever encounter, coupled with a weird poem and weird images that should've helped. Each failed attempt caused the party to take damage from a fire spray and be in flames for the next X turns. The thing is, the numbers of the burn were really off, because after only one mistake one of the members of the party were already down to 0 HP. In the end everything worked out, but that evolved in a whole speach about how that puzzle was really simple and none of us were able to get it, and etc. After speaking with the DM and other players, I've found out that this group had problems with puzzles in other campaings! The DM is always flabbergasted as no one can figure out the simplests of puzzles.
- Recently we just defeated this one NPC, who was really strong and was kinda of a boss from this one arc of the story. But this NPC showed out of nowhere and antagonized us, kidnapping some important people to us. When we asked about this NPC to the DM, he just said that we were supposed to meet him earlier in the story, but we didn't make an effort to follow that, so that part of the story just continued running in the background until he just showed up at our doorstep, kidnapping people. When we found him, combat started immediately and the NPC acted hostile towards us, so naturally we fought him and killed him. After the session was over, the DM was upset that we didn't talk to this guy, and that he wrote a whole backstory and lore to him, but we are never going to see it because we killed him too soon. like... WHAT?
And that brings me to my final point, the story. I don't really see any direction in this story we are playing and what the endgame of the campaign is, and I already pointed this out. But every time something about the story is brought up, the DM always insists that the party is not following the cues to the story he is trying to tell and that every time something important is brought up we just ignore it. I know I can be a little obtuse at times, but for me these 8 months we've been playing all look like a bunch of unrelated side quests with no unifying goal in mind. Every time the DM hypes up something to be important this one thing seem to just fade into the background, until another important thing shows up. I get a feeling he is trying to tell this giant interconnected story, where one action leads to another and everything is a consequence of another thing... but i just feel like he doesn't know how to tell such a big story.
I just feel like he has this one story he wants to tell and is not quite willing to adapt and move it to better include us as players, and sometimes even punishes us for not following along with the plan.

I just bought the season 3 Fauna and Flora DLC (from launcher) But it's just not showing up in my game... Anyone know how to fix this?

Abstract: To reach out to an outside observer for help, looking for one’s best fit type, is a common theme in this sub. While this makes sense in theory, real-life paints a different picture. The following thread discusses the typing process as a whole and argues that the failure of online typing usually is on both sides: The typing practitioner as well as the subject to be typed. While it does not give any solid rules, it illustrates tendencies that may, once pondered and understood, enhance your typing process in general, be it when writing a “Type me!” thread, analyzing such a post, or self-typing.
First, it is important to understand that Socionics views a Sociotype as ideal. The Socion consists of sixteen ideal images, each fitting perfectly next to each other in the cyclic progression of social phenomena.
While this fact is never discussed explicitly, many disagreements in other parts of typology are based on this as an underlying factor. Socionics is a form of modelling psycho- and sociological phenomena by a system of various layers of abstractions. To put it blatantly, these abstractions and their interrelations are first and foremost made up. There is no way to prove them empirically, and even worse, there is no way to disprove them empirically, either.
The logical part of Socionics only happens on the inside of the borders of the system. Socionics is a set of static terms and rules; using them internally allows for total theoretical predictability. A type leading with Intuition of Opportunities has definitively Comfort Sensing as its suggestive (Model A) or dual (Model G) function in its stack.
However, most online discussions don’t touch this internal and closed theoretical part. Instead, the primary concern of disagreements is what precisely happens at those borders of the system. How do these things play out in real-life? How many of those perfect symmetries can we expect in a real person? ― Needless to say, this shift from the ideal to the real is of utmost importance in the field of typing.
Typing has an analytic and a synthetic element. In the following I will refer to the side typing the individual as “the practitioner”, to the side in need of typing as “the subject”. The analytic moment in typing consists of breaking down the information provided by the subject. This requires a decent amount of skill and experience on the side of the practitioner, as reality does not come in parts perfectly fitting this ideal rasterization Socionics theory is.
This detail is worth special emphasis: This difficulty that the analytic aspect of typing requires does not exist because reality would somehow conceal its fragmentation into information aspects. To assume that the information provided by the subject must somehow fit theoretical dichotomies, symmetries or even basic terms, is a misleading influence. In the analytic stage, the mind of the practitioner should indeed take such perfect fits into consideration, like recognizing “a perfect example of leading E”, but it never should jump to such conclusions out of a lack of alternatives. However, this community has already normalized this behavior up to a point where the exclusivity of such an approach is seen as self-explanatory. Again, the underlying cause here is a loss of sight of the scope of Socionics or modelling in general. The typical hobby typologist unconsciously projects inconsiderate demands onto the system.
Socionics is a system of high causal density. Everything is connected to everything else in a strictly deterministic way. For example, from telling you only one thing, namely, that I refer to the type leading with -I, you can immediately tell me the rest of the stack. The irrelevant part is that this could be done by memorization; what is relevant, instead, is that the construction of the stack (of IEE) is also possible by applying deductive reasoning according to theoretical components; in this example: right/left, ir-/rational, polarity of functions, and the other basic symmetries to fill the rest of the stack.
This causal density is Socionics’ curse when it comes to smoothly fitting reality. Imagine the number of possible assumptions the theory makes for a person that expresses nothing but qualities all perfectly fitting -I lead. Theoretically, we are allowed, even encouraged to make such assumptions, but again, the moment we enter real life, such theoretical enforcement becomes questionable.
The answer to this question should stay flexible in the mind of the practitioner. Information directly contradicting the theory can be expected. However, the quest of the practitioner is not to solve these contradictions. The moment he or she begins to frame reality according to the theoretical rasterization, the track of the real qualities of the subject is lost, substituted by a personal interpretation of the facts, making them somehow converge with the theory, at last.
However, Socionics’ high causal density also allows for a multi-angular analysis that is not only horizontally (“flat”), but vertically. A flat multi-angular approach would be to fragment any model, be it Model A or Model G, into smaller parts and attribute the subject’s information to them individually. As already mentioned, this approach is part of the typing process and may prove helpful in scenarios where a statement needlessly conforms to the ideal expression of one fragment. Thereby, the flat approach does not capitalize on the theoretical interrelations of fragments, as it puts them each in total isolation.
A vertical approach is to reason theoretically first how certain fragments may interact by using the structure of a model. An example is given by the idea of “blocks” in Model G. A block combines two known fragments (functions) and reasons about how their interaction transcends what could have been explained by viewing each one individually. It follows the concept of emergency from systems theory and thereby allows for a hierarchy of entanglement of states. Functions interact in blocks, but (how) do blocks interact? And so on.
These stacked layers of theoretical combinations allow for more flexibility in the typing process. The concept naturally helps to balance the fact that the subject usually does not give its information in a theoretically pre-rendered way. For example, when describing a basic outline of one’s life, like what job you have, if you like it and why, how you got where you are, and so on, an entanglement of more than one function can be expected. If the practitioner then goes for the usual method of cutting this picture into smaller parts, following this up with mapping each one on its most likely function or element, then counting them for their final position in the stack, the result, be it in terms of type descriptions or theoretical integrity, is expected to be inaccurate.
So, instead, in the analytical section of the typing process, the practitioner should stay on a layer of abstraction that is theoretically undemanding. Only then synthetically building up assumptions, for example by the basic dichotomies of Intro-/ Extraversion, Ir-/Rationality. These two can be seen as especially helpful in interviews, as these qualities usually show without any need of directed questioning, but by simply letting the subject freely talk about its life. The focus then becomes dependent on already existing assumptions, be it in the form of recursive validation (“Is the subject really introverted?”) or in further, more specific investigation (“Being most likely introverted and rational, the subject should express at least some signs of either L or R lead.”) Higher levels of entanglement, like the “Social Mission” of a type, may act as low granularity validation mechanisms, after a sufficiently specific assumption has been formed (“Does the subject as a whole make sense as an approximation of IEE?”)
This wholistic approach is especially helpful, as contradicting information still acts as a guidance at these higher layers: What specific information does not fit? Are there any other angles that could explain such an outlier, like subtypes, shifts, situational functional states, trauma, special upbringing, you name it. This is different from finding indications for strong use of L after you already found indications of E lead. You have more degrees of freedom utilizing the vertical layers of abstraction, and it is this freedom that may ultimately counteract the idealistic rigidity that stabilizes each layer horizontally.
Of course, this typing scenario is idealistic, as well. Most of us have no chance to get a real interview in the form of a conversation with an experienced practitioner. But I believe that keeping the ideal in mind is a good thing to put the real into perspective.
Most of the “Type me!” posts are from people that already have some understanding of the theory. This is especially harmful to a smooth typing process, as the information comes already pre-rendered according to Socionics theory; even worse, most often according to the lowest layers like the function stack with its information elements. While some people are very explicit about this, even listing the information grouped into functional aspects, I see those tendencies also in posts that don’t follow any explicit order of this kind.
There is little emphasis on basic information, like age, sex, gender, how you do in your job or school, what your outlook on the next years is, etc. It’s like there is an unwritten rule that a person can only be typed by knowing its most special, snow-flakey information about takes, likes, dislikes, and skill ― while the exact opposite is true. If anything, a large community could be utilized to get a broad perspective on where one fits into a thousand people. But this becomes unlikely proportional to the degree the presented information is special, meaning hard to compare objectively on a large scale.
So, in the typical scenario, a post consists of pre-cut, small fragments of information; often listing the most special shards out of the mosaic the subject views itself as. The practitioner side then behaves exactly like the worst-case example I presented before, ignoring the underlying person which would pick such fragments, instead, dealing with every list item in isolation. I suspect that this is done mainly to avoid too much conjecture. Extrapolating of this kind is indeed the opposite of factual, but from my point of view this is the price you must pay. Let's consider the alternative:
Avoiding such extrapolation and instead relying on the parts of information provided results in a warped picture of the typing dynamic.
Usually, an external (compared to self-typing) practitioner is useful, precisely because of his or her perception from outside. When self-analyzing, one often is hindered by a lack of perspective, focusing too much on contextual details that are expected to constantly change but deemed important from a closed off internal, echo-chamber like perspective. Simply not being the subject is naturally a huge step towards being capable of such a perspective.
However, this advantage gets lost in the common online dynamic of practitioner and subject. The latter is both the one in need and the expert at the same time. It pre-renders information according to its understanding of the theory. The practitioner becomes more of a critic that is concerned about the correctness of the subject’s understanding than its potential type. The subject is merely assisted in its theoretical understanding, while the part of putting things into perspective becomes non-existent.
So, that was it. As always, my threads have no clear result but should present an overview of the topic under concern. Maybe this will help you to put certain things in your (self-)typing journey into perspective.

Hey everyone. This is going to be a bit of a rant, so bear with me.
Back in 2018, I started a CS program because I genuinely enjoyed coding. It was challenging, sure, but I relished in working on side projects and learning more about the subject. My school also had a mandatory co-op program, which led me to a remote job at a VR simulation start-up right around the time when the pandemic hit and my mother was diagnosed with cancer in 2020 (yes, at the same time).
The job wasn't exactly what I'd hoped for (I ended up working primarily in Unreal Engine and prototyping gameplay mechanics with blueprints, rather than traditional coding, it was required “for readability”) However, I didn't mind too much and even found myself enjoying it. But being the sole developer for a small start-up quickly became overwhelming. My boss was expecting me to learn a new program unrelated to my degree every other week. I didn’t really pick up any new technologies because I was so mentally preoccupied with my mother’s health.
Then last summer, in the midst of all this, my mother passed away. This hit me incredibly hard and left me in a deep depression. Understandably, my performance suffered, and after a while, my boss let me go. I can't say I learned much from that job due to the mental toll, and what I did learn doesn't seem to be relevant to most CS jobs I'm seeing now.
Fast forward to today, I'm working part-time as a front-end developer for a local IT company because I networked. I'm getting experience with React.JS, but I can already see the scope creep setting in. It feels like I'm in a repeat of my previous job - being relied on for major projects with minimal supervision as a new grad.
The problem is, while I'm applying to jobs constantly, I find myself bombing interviews due to a lack of relevant experience and because my coding skills have rusted over time due to juggling job applications and this part-time work. I'm just too mentally drained to find the time or energy to study or work on side projects, even when they genuinely excite me.
I've begun to question if CS is even the right path for me. It's disheartening, considering how much I used to enjoy it. I feel like I just can't catch a break and every experience I've had thus far has left me feeling burned out.
Thanks for reading my rant. If anyone has been through a similar situation or has any advice, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you

I'm a hopeless romantic deeply thoughtful guy. i could become your lifelong soulmate , provided you put in a bit of effort to understand me. I want to know you deeply from within. Do you have the courage to talk freely and be open about who you really are ? We all have shortcomings and issues. Acceptance is important.
I'm eventually looking for a serious long term relationship but I understand a lifelong commitment can be hard to promise or expect. So, I don't mind taking things slow, starting from a friendship with some fun chats and affection / intimacy. But i would like to discuss about the practicalities and feasibilities at some point in our conversation , especially if incompatibilities or geographical barriers are involved that can make it hard for us to be with each other. And then, we can gradually develop that emotional connect and liking for each other as we talk but yet not rush into commitment until we are sure of our decision.
People outside India are welcome too. LDR is fine with me ( i can move to your country). Long distance makes the final meet even more romantic as we travel across the world to be with each other. I'd be so happy if you visit me and learn about Indian culture from me.

Some Essential Info About Me

I was into software development and even did some stock trading on the side. Tried developing my own game as a hobby project. I didn't learn much in college. I was a self taught app developer. Self-employed. I'm not quite settled or established yet, but have enough to make ends meet. But eventually, I found I need support in life. It's difficult to work alone without a business partner or a romantic life partner. So I've just lost motivation to work since past few years. Also because of my family environment. My father hasn't been working since a decade, so I never had a role model growing up who could inspire me to be diligent, disciplined and help me find opportunities.
And I've realized lately that my motivation is more towards finding love. It's like a fuel I need in order to continue to perform. So I'm focusing on that first because I know I can't have my heart in my career if my mind is craving for something else. Finding a loving partner is both a need for me and the foremost thing on my bucket list. And finding consistent compatible women who are self aware and clear about what they want has been hard for me. It often ends in a few weeks. Or converts into a platonic friendship. But if I can't find romantic love, then I hope I atleast can find a true platonic unconditional love. And once I do, I will have the energy in me to realize my potential in the career aspect too.
I've never had a relationship, so you'll be my first.
Physical: height is six feet ** , I'm average build , slightly **muscular. Fair skin but not white, more like wheatish. Black hair. Cute. I get mixed responses. Some women like my looks, while some ghost after seeing my pics. ( in case you feel unattracted, just tell me bluntly 😅. I appreciate straightforwardness)

My Personality

I really like being a support and best friend to anyone, even if relationship doesn't work out between us. I believe in honesty, kindness, fidelity, privacy, empathy. I am straightforward in talks, i hate mind games, you don't need to be over-polite . Be blunt and straight with me please.
I think i'm assertive and i openly express how i feel and i want you to do the same. If you keep things bottled in, you'll be at discomfort. I want you to share your feelings & thoughts with me in a direct way and be as comfortable while talking , as if i'm your best friend.
I'm an ambivert because i feel introvert with people i don't really connect with and extrovert otherwise. My MBTI type (can't say if it is still the same) is ENTP.

My Interests and Hobbies

talking to people, listening to their issues and helping out, playing sports, especially those involving teamwork, i really want to collaborate eventually to solve problems the world faces. I am altruistic but self-centred too.

Affection & Intimacy

These are results of my love language test :
40% Acts of Service
20% Quality Time
18% Physical Touch
12% Receiving Materialistic offerings
10% Words of Affirmation
I like to give hugs every few hours. I believe i have a high drive. I am a sapiosexual, means attracted to intelligence. I adore your brain. While I'm not a demisexual, overall, I think it's the emotions and love which makes it all the more fulfilling. I like giving pleasure as much as receiving. I also can adapt to my partner's nature. So, I am dominating if they like me to lead and take control but I can be submissive too.

Who I’m Looking for

A woman anywhere on the Earth (if you can't relocate, i will ) who is preferably around my age (but I'm flexible) , any race. I'm open minded about your views of god, life philosophy. religion etc and you should be tolerant too. I'd prefer though that you follow a middle ground between a religious zealot and a hardcore nihilist. I do believe our existence and life has a purpose. But even if we don't align in our spiritual beliefs now, we may become like-minded as we talk and understand each other. We need to be receptive to new ideas and alternate viewpoints and rational / logical.
I value love and intelligence above everything else, so even if you are depressed, don't have confidence in your beauty, have some mental health issues, are not able to get over a break up, still i'd like to atleast get to know you , be your friend and give it a chance.
I feel people who have faced failures are actually wiser, people who have experienced depression before are mature and those who have suffered loss in the past are more emotionally stronger. I'm looking for a loving heart and beautiful soul. Physical attraction is important , but not the main thing i look for.
I don't smoke, drink, take any drugs, and i'd prefer if you don't as well.If you do, i won't pressurize you to change your lifestyle completely for me but I'd want you to put in an effort to abstain from that. I understand addictions are tough to deal with. But occasional indulgence is fine.
I also don't care about your income. You may be a college dropout , unemployed , that's alright. But i need you to be hard working and diligent.
In this overpopulated world, it doesn't make ethical sense for us to have kids. And a secondary reason is they deserve lot of time, attention and resources which we may not be able to provide with our life situations. I don't want to become the cause of why their upbringing may get messed up. That's why I have a preference towards being childfree.

Communication

I am open towards voice calls too whereas video calls only after some weeks . You don't need to send a pic right away but you can ask for mine after we chat for some hours . I don't abandon people abruptly , i'd let you know if i wish to discontinue talking. I'm also transparent about whoever i'm speaking to. I will never cheat on you , lead you on , keep you as a backup option , etc. You are free to explore your dating options until we become exclusive. I encourage you to talk to other people too.
If two lonely people get together, we can dispel away the loneliness.

Does anyone know if side quests go away after a certain part of story is passed? Can they be fully completed after main campaign? Depending on the answer will alter how I approach the game. I would like to keep majority of side quests avail for when my character is a higher lvl needing the XP to go above and beyond lol.

If there is a designated Boston Hardcore subreddit I apologize, I couldn't find one. I'm from Central MA and somehow in over a decade of going to shows have never been to the middle east, yes that includes going to AHC which I only found out about like five years ago. My question is what is it like there? I always know what the crowd is going to be like depending on what genre it is and what venue across New England I'm at. Paradise is one of my least favorites because of how many college kids show up and can sometimes ruin the vibe. I'm guessing Drain at the Middle East will be mostly just a hardcore crowd? What is your experience? And side question what is parking like in the area. Are there any lots or just getting lucky with street parking? Asking these questions because of a medical condition that I would like to be prepared and not get injured, and also just out of general anxiety. Thanks for listening to my ted talk.

I was thinking about what Carl Jung said and holy shit he was right my shadow right the believe I have inside of my and my hidden parts of me are coming out I hate myself a lot actually I hate my brain for how shit it is my looks my voice my personality I am the problem here all I am as a person is someone who just anger inside all the time Im like a child who know how to punch really hard I made my face bleed with how hard I did it and hands it got so bad I even got some blood on my pants.
I've cried a lot today just hating myself it got so bad I had to use a hair dryer.
My shadow makes no fucking sense it wants to hurt people and care a lot for them like WTF brain why are you like this.
If you can't tell I had a metal breakdown.
I learnt that society is a lie we are rats trying to chase happyness then loosing it then chasing, chasing, chasing, again, again, again over and over, the school will nerver be "fixed" they want you to stay stupid so you work a shit job and not smart enough to actually know what's going on, this is why the world is shit like it is, no one has a real understanding how to do relationships, confidence, self love, disapline, in school do you do taxes training fuck no, do you learn about momey in shool fuck no, you get it know hopefully the mega rich want us like this so they can control us easier and for profit.
I feel I've let something out inside of me it's a weird feeling kind of nice thogth (don't take that out of context) I felt like today I've changed a lot.
P.S. I hope you found meaning in my life of suffering a holy shit today has been so painful, I even put a knife to my net.

thin, thick, 90s or feathered?
fairly normal question to ask right? but my question(s) are: the angle at the start of the brow, the arch, how many hairs on either side of the arch, the arch itself, length of the arch, the height of the first bit of the brow, the angle at which i wax the top of the brow and also that same angle in combination with the angle below the brow.
i spend so much time looking at old photos and how my brows look. i cant ever get it the same way as an old pic i liked and then when i wax, i hate it, but then this becomes one of the 'befores' that i'll again try to achieve. then i can't decide which looks better. help HELP
its a curse and a blessing having really thick brows. if i leave them i look like i missed an evolution stage, oh and thats another thing - if i bleach them slightly, which shade looks best? and which shade pairs best with which brow pencil shade?
its curse and a blessing having really thick brows - they grow back so quick and there are TOO many options, so when i end up having to wax again (usually less than a week), its the obsession once over. such a first world problem, i know, and its absolutely ridiculous, borderline obsessive i feel, and it hurts so stupid i can't make it stop.
​
tldr: too thick brows, too many options, obsessed (no really) over getting the perfect shape every week, and it's so annoying i'm considering going bald.
