Guys, I'm at my wit's end here and I really need some perspective. I really wanna get past my fear of rejection with women, but it feels like a brick wall. I've done so much ******* introspection into what's causing it, but nothing has worked in the moment. When the time comes to actually go talk to a girl, I just freeze. Like, my brain shuts down and my feet feel like they're cemented to the floor. This **** just crushes my confidence. The weird thing is, I don't think I have a specific insecurity that's holding me back. I'm not trying to brag, but just for context: I'm not the best-looking guy on earth but I'd say I'm above average, ...

I’m a solo developer and I built an app called **The Architect** because I never really found a journaling app that felt like it was helping me think better. Most of the ones I tried were basically clean text editors with a date stamp. Nice to look at, useful for storing thoughts, but still kind of passive. I could write something honest, close the app, and come back a week later still stuck in the same loop. What I wanted was something that actually responded. So I built a private AI journal where every entry writes back to you more like a mentor than a chatbot. Not generic encouragement, but actual questions, pushback, and reflection. The goal was to make it feel less like “logging ...

The setup: An older machine with proxmox installed. It's got a single Windows 11 VM running on it. The problem: I keep having the Windows 11 VM hang on start up. It gets to the spinning cirlce for Windows 11 and freezes. It does that when it tries to do an automatic startup repair -- Starts to load that, spins the Windows 11 circle, freezes. I've had them also appear to just freeze in winre preboot environments (booting off a 23h2 or 25h2 installer usb stick) if it just makes contact with the VM OS drive. (But not always because it did connect and have been able to copy files off from that winre environment.) I was still setting that OS VM disk as virtio since I thought th...

We've been building stacks for a while now. The core idea: store owners paste their link (instagram, facebook, shopify, woocommerce) and the AI builds their commerce stack automatically. mobile app, website, and POS, all connected, no code, no dev needed. we just updated the landing page and would love honest feedback. does the value prop land in the first 5 seconds? is anything confusing? what would make you trust it more or less?

I started fishing about a month ago and when I bought my rods, I went with 1-pieces because I had I read 2-piece rods are less sensitive, more likely to break, etc But I’m finding them really inconvenient to transport (my car is small, hiking to spots is difficult, can’t use public transportation, etc) So I went to Bass Pro Shop yesterday to check out 2-piece rods, and surprisingly they only had one in the entire store! Even finding them online is kind of difficult (at least in the US market) Do you guys had any recommendations for 2-piece casting rods? Looking for either M or MH, budget is around $150 usd, and I don’t mind having to look overseas (I saw someone on here say they’r...

I (40F) recently moved in with my partner Z (34M) who has just bought his own home and moved in two weeks ago. I did not buy into the house but have made it very clear I’m happy to pay rent and manage household finances equally - we are yet to arrange this. As background, we have lived together previously in a 3rd country many years ago, but separated and only got back together recently. I moved in to his house about a week ago, and have mentioned that there are a few things I’d like to buy for the house to help me to feel comfortable and I guess to ‘nest’ a little. I’m quite neat and I wanted to get us some storage / containers for our cupboards. We are also lacking a few things i...

H Lin 26 PHW Evercolor leather-(not pink, not coral, not red, Not sure of the color name, but really pretty), BNNU and will never use. It’s taking up way too much space in my limited display “real estate.” I bought it from Moon over a year ago and paid over $300 US w/🚢, but have no details on exact outlay. I’m selling it for $250. I do not see any flaws, but be reminded that Moon is a mid tier seller. It’s UNLIKELY to be imported leather, although she assures us that her family factory makes at least half of the bag by hand. H Mini L GHW- in a nice olive green- while it takes up less space, it’s too nice to just “hang out.” I have no idea who I got it from. I thought it w...

I write as a hobby to keep me busy while I survive being disabled. I mostly write urban fantasy because everything is better with vampires/elves/whatever, but the plots and characters always center on the kind of issues I deal with... though there are limitations with that. My main physical disability is hypermobile type Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, but I'm way too close to that to be able to write a good book, so I have to find other issues that I can identify with, like cerebral palsy. As to the book I won't try explaining everything, but it's a romantasy set in small town Minnesota, set against a backdrop of two big families colliding because of an unexpected marriage. The main...

So I recently bought an Arai Regent-x size medium as my first helmet, and I have a few questions. So I’ve tried it on a few times and I noticed two things. 1) the cheek pads stick out from the bottom significantly, not sure if that’s normal or not. 2) the strap tends to be uncomfortable, as soon as I lower my face slightly the strap digs into my throat and feels like it’s choking me. My next question is: when I originally walked into the store the worker said that anAGV K1S wouldn’t fit, that’s the helmet I was looking for. The arai fits almost perfectly if not for those two issues. Should I still try the k1s? Exchange my arai for a larger size? Or look for a different helmet with ...

TL;DR: I’m insulted because my friend won’t let me smoke in his garage anymore. However, it’s not about having to smoke outside. It’s because smoking was supposedly the reason for hosting us in the garage to begin with. Edit, since everyone is screaming I should host if I disagree: I do, we rotate, noisy people are in my house while my toddler is sleeping. Most smokers I know - myself included - stop smoking indoors when we get older, especially once we establish a family. I have nothing but respect for that, but I obviously still prefer smoking indoors on a cold rainy night. My friend had a good solution: He started receiving us for game nights in his garage rather than his livi...

Five years ago, I [posted](https://www.reddit.com/r/vaginismus/comments/ksnm9k/successful_piv_my_pt_journey/) about my journey to get "cured" via physical therapy. I highly recommend that clinic (and their use of anxiety meds) so take a look if you're interested! From there, it actually took us about five years to have a baby and I had to go through fertility treatments and procedures. I remember searching this sub back then to see if anyone has shared about their IVF process, but couldn't find very much. So I'm just parking this info here in case someone wants to get a sense of what the process *may* entail. I do have more uncommon complications due to my cervix a...

Hello! I have a water quality question: My ammonia, chlorine, nitrite and nitrate are all zero, but my pH is 6.2 (or who knows, could be less, right? 6.2 is the lowest value accounted for on the color chart), and my total Alkalinity reads zero. I put cuttlebone in both aquariums ( one 10 gallon and one 3 gallon) two days ago, but i have yet to see an increase on either the pH or Alkalinity. The three gallon tank was meant to be a riparium, but became home to a sickly looking miserably hopeless Betta who had been in a pet store cup for over two months. The 10 gallon tank houses the first sad Betta I saw that had also been in a pet store cup for 2 months, as well as 3 neon tetras and one ...

Hello Community and thanks for checking out my listing. I have recently decided to sell my Final Fantasy XIV collection to raise funds for my family. There are a number of items in this collection that needs further explanation. So apologies ahead of time for the following wall of text. I want to start off by saying the only thing in this lot that is used/open is the original Final Fantasy XIV Online Collectors edition. Other than that everything else is new and still sealed. Being a collector I also wrapped each of these box sets in a second layer of cellophane wrap to protect the original seal. So when viewing the photos if you notice some tape on the edges that is for the extra layer of c...

Been really enjoying how proactive the marathon devs are with making this game fun and keeping things in check. Excited to see what more content they have in store after seeing how well they did with cryo. Hoping they do drop some content to help ease the less hardcore players into the game. Marathon is a great game and i think if they make spaces for some more casual play that will be the event to take marathon to extreme levels success (though to me its already great).

Walking into the morgue alone felt like stepping into a place where time had stopped breathing. July 21, 2025, changed everything I thought I knew about loyalty and some times it's not the person you would expect. Well maybe you did. You knew your kids.You probably wasn't surprised it was me. The air was too still, too quiet in a way that pressed against your chest before you even realized it. Every step forward carried a weight that didn’t belong to feet alone, it belonged to everything I was about to see, everything I could not unsee. I held onto a fragile thread of hope as I entered the double door and read above in huge letters, Coroner. It made me hear whispers, "Mayb...

**What does it mean to be a spirit? -- Autumn Rose, Feb 8th, 2064** Most every single day I see it in people's eyes when they look at me. They're curious about me, and it's only natural for them to do so. Sometimes however, they'll ask me bluntly: "What's it like (to be a spirit)?" that or some beat-around-the-bush variation on that. To the metahuman mind, spirits are wondrous creatures freed from the mundane concerns that dominate daily life. We are, to them, magical. And yes, in some literal sense, we are, in fact, magical; but I mean it in the literary sense. It's hard to describe. IYKYK. But if you're reading this column then you almost certa...
