I met my partner in Janaury 2025. He was the ceo of the company I worked at, I was just a middle manager. We met and hit it off instantly, he was kind, smart, funny and just an incredible person. We started off as friends, went for coffees and walks, eventually he asked me out and we went for dinner a couple of times. We first kissed on valentines day. Eventually I called it off because he would become very unresponsive, not talk to me for days on end and would go weeks without seeing me. He said it was because he was busy with his child (a single father) and obviously work keeps him very busy and stressed. I told him I understand and respect that, but I need to focus on myself because I fee...

I died, but the King of Hel told me "you passed away still a virrgin, the path ahead is closed to you. Sever your marriage within three days. After that, you may proceed." On my wedding night, I thought I was marrying Merrick, the man I truly loved—only to discover it was his older brother Garrett, paralyzed for six years. Garrett deeply resented himself because I had once been with Merrick. Five years later, when Garrett asked me to retrieve his lost ring, I accidentally fell into the sea and drowned. When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the day I went to search for that ring. \- Priscilla returned to the Crawford's villa, her body battered and soaked t...

Hello everyone, I recently got back into fallout 4 and startet a playthroigh on my PS5. I already own a PS4 Disc Version of the Game and downloaded the free PS5 upgrade from the PS store. I would assume that the quests from the next gen update such as the enclave quest would be included in the downloades PS5 version. But somehow the quests that apparently should trigger as soon as I leave vault 111 do not appear. I own all DLC except the anniversary edition and the creation club addon, but as I understood none of these are required to have the quests. In the addons menu there is no mention of enclave dlc or makeshift weapons. Am I missing something, or is there a way to download the c...

🧡🧡 Hello everyone! I have a vintage Birkin 30 in box leather that needs a full SPA, and I’m thinking about bringing it with me to Paris on my next trip in March. I usually shop at Hermès Sèvres, but I’m wondering whether it would be better to have the SPA done there or at my home store in the U.S. Do I need to make a SPA appointment in Paris? I’m trying to minimize the time my bag is away. I’d rather return to Paris to pick it up than wait endlessly for it to make its way back to my U.S. store. What do you all think? 🧡🧡

Hello everyone. I'm a self -taught student. I'm working in a different domain, but fashion is my passion and everyday, I dedicate some time to study. The project for this month is a small collection, inspired by Egypt. The client : women wear, 30 yo, office employees, who work with people, confident and art passionate ( not me, if you're wondering ). The concept : summer wear, light, mature, elegant, which can be worn in an office but also outside. Fabric : most cottons and linen/jersey + some elastane. Should be able to breathe, feel free, clothes follow the curves of the body, but you feel comfortable in it. Heavy density so that the clothes are straight. Some crep f...

I decided back in January of 2023 that I will not do public events with my mom. Especially with my dad’s side of the family. (I’ll explain later in this post) Long story short. Between July and December of 2022 I started putting all of the pieces together in my head that my mom was the biggest narcissist that I have ever encountered. My mom has constantly put me down in front of others, tried to control me in strange ways, make me feel bad about myself, ETC Some of the strange things/games she plays/has done was hiding my truck title, hiding keys to my gun safe, trying to get me to eat turkey every single year for thanksgiving even though I have ate it many of times and don’t care t...

So my question is , is this a common defect? Or what

TRIGGER WARNING. SOME SENSITIVE SUBJECTS MIGHT BE MENTIONED. English is not my native language, so, sorry if many things are hard to understand. I just started a new job. I had never had such a formal job before, much less in a big company. It's a japanese car/automotive company. Being a big company is already scary. It makes me worry about my potential **** ups. I had a very very very chill job at a family business. I quit on November - December cause it wasn't doing great, we weren't making money after 3 years approx. So I had and I wanted to find a good job. It was through a type of scholarship that I got to work at said company, and this was my first week. I didn�...

Hey so i’m a 23F and he’s 23M I have been in a toxic relationship since over 2 years where i was always bob the builder, the only one who does all the emotional work, the forgiver of his mistakes and betrayals and lies, the perfectly loyal one, the one who had to survive his manipulations and gaslighting constantly. I stayed because his affection and cuddles felt amazing to me as i grew up in a non affectionate home. Recently I started building a better self esteem for myself and I started mirroring his behaviour instead of doing more than him, since we agreed i’ll wait until his mental health gets better and he can act like a proper boyfriend who doesn’t neglect me emotionally. H...

**Chapter 10**     Dialing in droves, nigh fanatical, attorneys had pummeled Carter’s voicemail with promises of a hefty settlement. He had a defective airbag lawsuit that couldn’t miss, they claimed.  He deleted most of the messages, yet mulled others, well aware that something beyond the rational had stolen away *both* of his wives. “Elaina, you’re the best lady driver I’ve ever seen,” he’d oft told her, honestly, though the list of other women who’d driven him was both short and familial. She’d laughed and jabbed him in the ribs, just a little bit harder than he’d have preferred, and labelled him a misogynist, but her driving record was perfect. Never did he...

Hi, looking for some advice/confirmation/challenging. I'm 48, almost 49, trained in computer science and a 25+ year career in risk mgmt in financial institutions, as consultant, freelance consultant and last 10 years as an employee. I've been struggling with motivation for years because i got disillusioned and/or bored. I've soldiered on because of the financial security and pretty good work/life balance while raising our kids. The kids are getting more independent (one working, one studying at uni, last one still a few more years with us), and a few years ago I started a bachelor degree as a medical imaging technician. Out of interest in the medical world, the science and t...

I (21M) share a single bedroom and bathroom with my roommate (22M) who I have known for many years now and consider a good friend I have in life. Think dorm-style living — two beds, one bathroom, very little personal space. We’ve generally made it work even though some other issues are coming up where I feel I’m being taking advantage of… A while ago, I started noticing a cylindrical object around our bathroom and room. At first, I honestly thought it was a gym shaker or some random toiletry. It was not. I realized what it was after seeing it sitting on the bathroom sink next to our toothbrushes. Since then, he leaves his fleshlight out constantly — on the bathroom counter, in...

I will be returning to work in two months when LO is 7mo and I’m looking for advice about how to best prepare. What did you do that worked well? What do you wish you had or hadn’t done? Info about our situation: When I go back to work, my partner will take parental leave and will be at home with our baby. Right now LO nurses almost exclusively, taking a bottle of pumped milk from my SO once a week. I currently have a manual pump, but it hasn’t been great — I usually need to pump at least twice to produce enough for one bottle. I plan to get an electric pump for pumping while at work. We don’t have much stored at the moment, maybe 300ml in the freezer. I will be working 20-30 ho...

I know for many indie devs this is kind of a nightmare situation, but as a first-time dev this was my first realistic goal. I launched with an MVP-level demo/store page and didn’t really take advantage of the initial visibility. But with the feedback I got, I kept improving the game and managed to reach triple digits. Now I'm aiming to polish the game for the February Next Fest and (hopefully) break into four digits. Good luck to everyone!

iam a fresher. I’m gonna join the company next month for which I had to do NSR registration. I selected ”present employer“ instead of “future employer” but I should be doing the other way around. the details got already saved. i don’t know how to edit this now. i tried to re-login but the previous sections are locked. it’s continuing from where i left off. now, i have two options: 1. since I have already completed filling all the details, I should do the payment and complete the registration. After registration, I can raise a ticket to edit the employer option. 2. I can click on “register” again and fill the details, it will ask me to delete the existing details and crea...

MILWAUKEE - A Milwaukee County jury on Thursday convicted a former gas station 'Security Guard" of killing a man who took snacks without paying for them. In court Guilty verdict: William Pinkin, 58, was found guilty at trial of first-degree intentional homicide and a gun possession felony. The jury deliberated for 20 minutes. What they're saying: Pinkin chose to testify in his own defense while wearing jail-issued clothing on Thursday. He claimed to not remember shooting Isaiah Allen, and he answered "no" when his defense attorney asked if he meant to shoot him. "I don't remember pulling the trigger. The gunshot woke me up," he said. At times, Pink...

Quick note before I get into it: I used AI to help me edit this purely so it reads clean and doesn’t turn into a ramble. The ideas themselves are mine — I just wanted it to be focused and understandable. I’m exploring a question a lot of us circle around: If advanced civilizations are visiting or interacting with us, what could motivate them? Are we important to them, or just a curiosity? This is a working theory—not a claim of certainty. We already measure human capacity in crude ways: IQ tests, skill tests, knowledge tests. They’re imperfect, but they point at something real: more cognitive capacity can produce bigger impact. Now imagine a future where civilizations can also ...
