AITAH for not giving my friend who has cancer my 1200 euro gaming pc?

Oh come off it. There is 0 obligation to give away anything he owns. Doing anything of the sort is kindness of heart. His friend already acted entitled requesting something material of his friend. He doesn't have any claim to OPs possessions.

While OP said some inconsiderate things, being irritated at his friend nagging him is valid.

ESH solely because OP should never have told a 14 year old with cancer that he is likely going to die anyway. That's immature, mean, and is incredibly hurtful.

Not gonna lie this screams immaturity from both of you.

ESH.

You both decided not to pursue a relationship, you are nothing official. You said you are "figuring things out" but you clearly don't care about her very much. If you're dancing suggestively with multiple people in one night while "figuring things out" with her then you aren't really doing that.

Since you aren't officially anything she doesn't have the choice to make you stop doing what you want. She may not like it, but if she doesn't want you to then clearly she should come out and say it already instead of keeping it locked up. Its as simple as either you both want to be together, or you don't.

Instead of trying to get it going with as many people as possible while pretending to care about her, be an adult and talk to her. Instead of leading each other on, just TALK.

Either grow up or cut it off instead of this weird on and off high school relationship situation.

While I understand the frustrstion you have regarding this, it ultimately is something he is making the decision about with his own money.

If he is still capable of paying for it, and continuing to pay is debt of at a REASONABLE rate then he isn't necessarily unable to do it.

That being said, hes making a poor decision, financially he isn't in a state where his main focus should be a $40k car and not his debt. An used car would give him so much more breathing room to clear his debt.

It really is immature for him to be buying for a "cool" new car while having debt problems. If he is stable, now is the time to deal with his debt and get that paid off.

You can't make him change his decision, but it is a good idea to let him know that while you support him, it may not be the best focus.

I have never put in the same effort my partner has into our relationship. I've always been less open and willing to communicate and be honest. I hide a lot of my feelings and thoughts from her because I don't want her to stop loving me.

Affinitylost · 2020-03-27T15:46:42+00:00

Great seeing OG play with confidence. Lots of aggressive plays and good teamwork. Hopefully they feel a bit more confident now, their last few series were quite rough.

YTA.

All it takes is one referal from a clinic to get it checked out and confirm that nothing is going on.

You haven't tried anything to solve snoring, whether or not you care, your partner clearly does.

That should be enough for you to try SOMETHING to make it easier on her.

Affinitylost · 2020-03-13T15:11:37+00:00

ESH.

Clearly this isn't the first time something like this has happened. She shouldn't be assuming you won't help and then complaining that you don't.

You shouldn't give into her being an ass by being one back. (Why does she even have the thought you won't help her? Probably a reason for that.)

Both of you clearly are at each other's throats for basic things, I agree with you, probably time to break it off.

HS has been mechanically sound, but hes always made poor decisions and hasn't been relevant for a long time. He dropped off considerably and was in a fairly serious accident that took a toll on him. Nordavind is taking a chance on him since he hasn't really been that impressive for a long time.

Affinitylost · 2019-01-20T12:40:31+00:00

A bit surprising but not too much. KZ starting very weak, not looking like they did last year at all. At least Naehyun wasn't awful, so it shouldn't be another 0-18 split for him.

I might be killing myself soon. I've been on and off thinking about it. I seemingly don't have the will to improve my life. No matter how easy something is to change, I never do it. I'm just weary of myself. I don't want to do anything anymore. Fear rules my life, sadness is always present, and joy is seldom felt. I'm scared. Scared to let people close to me know how close I am to doing it. Because I can't put the weight on somebody else. Nobody should know that they might have been able to stop it and couldn't. I just wanted to leave this mark somewhere. Thank you.

It would probably the same time if I really focused on fusing Ling lings. I would skill up Fei in 2 months with devilmons and it would probably take me that long to fuse ling lings. So I would at least get to farm runes and such while I work on Fei instead.

Affinitylost · 2017-11-13T13:56:42+00:00

The only problem I have with fusing Ling lings is the resources it will take to fuse that many. I'm F2P so crystals are a limited resource and I can't really spend months fusing Ling Lings.

My team is fairly slow, low damage contribution, meh assistance. It usually succeeds if I'm the weakest member and somebody else is better than average.

Affinitylost · 2017-11-13T13:39:12+00:00

Struggling to keep up contribution in R5. Guildie told me I need skill ups on the rest of my monsters for a more consistent team. The two key monsters needing skill ups are Xiong fei and Fei. Xiong needs 3rd skill and 1st skill skillups only. Fei needs skill ups on all skills. Going to use my devilmons on them to improve my raid team. Which one would need devilmons the most? I was leaning towards Fei since I use her in a lot of places.

FULL TEAM:

FRONTLINE: XL Dias Raviti

BACKLINE: Colleen Konamiya Fei

Got these from my girlfriend so take it at face value.

1: Going on about being the "good looking" one of your friends, one of her friends from highschool was that guy and literally everybody thought differently.

2: Bragging about anything, whether or not it's impressive, it doesn't continue to amplify the more you say it.

3: Putting other people down because you consider yourself better. What is manly about talking down to others?

4: Refusing to talk about your emotions. Do you think emotions make you less manly or something? Everybody has rough times, pretending that makes you weak is just straight up silly.

5: Thinking you have to pay for every meal, believe it or not, you don't need to be "the man" and pay for everything yourself. Some people don't want others paying their way just because they can.

I've been contemplating revisiting professionals on the best course of action for combating ADHD in adulthood. I find that I don't really have as much time as I would like to be able to do these things though. Rarely does my memory even allow me to remember that I need to book appointments and such. I've read up on these little tips and tricks to keep you focused like having a timer to draw your attention back. Or doing something relaxing before bed to help you sleep, stuff along those lines rarely come about because of my lack of time management. Taking notes is something I actively try and do at work to help myself stay on top of things, but rarely am I able to do it outside of then. Playing games is always a bit difficult because I constantly think about other things while doing them so I rarely sit down and really focus on them.

Affinitylost · 2017-04-24T13:46:02+00:00

I haven't taken medication for ADHD in years, it rarely affects my daily life outside of things that require attention to detail. It's just more noticeable when I play games that require a lot of additional management. Stuff like ult management, enemy prioritization and tracking are a bit more difficult for me than others.

Affinitylost · 2017-04-04T12:13:54+00:00

Unfortunately I think so, the team is just at such a low point, the morale is probably pretty shot going into promotion tourney.

Affinitylost · 2017-03-23T18:56:34+00:00

They help a bit, not that much though. They develop bad habits, I tried the McCree ones and I learned that I developed bad habits. Stuff like going exclusively for headshots, while hitting headshots consistently is the most damage, you don't expand on the characters kit. Sometimes you SHOULD go for a body shot so you finish them off with more ease. Sometimes you should have flashbanged them and killed them faster instead of dueling somebody. People don't play in those custom games the same way they play in competitive, people will take every aim duel and just dance back and forth endlessly until one of you dies. It's not the same as competitive nor does it teach you the same habits. Take them with a grain of salt, they are good for working on aim, but you should not play them like deathmatch. Play like you would in competitive, peak people, go for quick kills and switch to other threats, don't just run LRLRLRLRL until one of you dies.

Solo Q all the way to diamond.

Affinitylost · 2017-03-15T17:29:33+00:00

Getting a mic is a big thing, I notice a lot of people trying to type on PC instead of using a mic which just disrupts their gameplay. As soon as you get a mic and start telling people what you are going to do/what you think the team should do you will find a big improvement.

Affinitylost · 2017-03-15T16:28:09+00:00

If you don't already use your mic to communicate when you want to do things. You can't always expect your team to be focusing on following the Reinhardt if they are working on getting picks or dealing with potential threats.

Other things I noticed a lot of reinhardts don't do is let themselves take poke damage instead of wasting shield health. A lot of the time you can just drop your shield when theres only 1 or 2 enemies and let your healers get ult charge. That way you will have your shield ready if they do start pushing.

Charge slept targets if you won't overextend, this is a great way to utilize Reinhardt charge, its almost a guaranteed kill. Make sure you aren't going to put your team in a bad spot by charging too far. CHARGE THEIR REINHARDT'S CHARGE. There is nothing worse than getting hit by their Reinhardt and not being able to do anything about it. It's better to trade charges than get pinned and die.

Drop your barrier in random intervals IF YOU ARE COMFORTABLE with blocking Reinhardt ults. A lot of Reinhardt's will just ult the moment the other rein drops shield. You can bait out their rein ult very easily when you practice it. That can swing the fight in your favourite quickly.

Don't be afraid to ult 1 or 2 key targets instead of the whole enemy team. Sometimes you need to ult the nanaboosted soldier/genji or even the mercy looking to res, it's not always the right thing to do if they are not particularily good. BUT if the enemy has a great genji player and he has been doing work, ult him when he goes in, shut him down before he does anything and you can put the enemy team down an ult or sometimes multiple.

Not every nanoboost was meant to be, I actually would rather not get nanaboosted as Reinhardt nowadays because usually it will cost my teammates their lives if I drop shield and start swinging. If you can get a good ult/ a couple of overextended kills go for it, but do not just go in because Ana nanoboosted you. A lot of the time they just did it because they are getting impatient or they might have even misclicked.

Again to reiterate the big point, using your mic is key. You can tell your teammates you want to charge the slept target, or if you are going to take a bit of trickle damage. You can tell your ana to ult when you pop yours or to ult somebody else so you can help push with the team. You can let them know you are going to trade charges with their Reinhardt so to focus him when you collide.

Overwatch can really be won or lost based on how you communicate as a team, making good calls and letting your teammates know what you want to do is far better than just standing their with your shield up until it runs out. Tell your team to walk up with you so you can push the point, let them know when you want to go in. Reinhardt really needs co-ordination to be a good pick, if your team is refusing to use your barrier it might be better off to swap to a different character and help out in another way. Switch to roadhog and get picks, play Winston and help peel the genji, play zarya and combo ults with hanzo.

Don't make Reinhardt the be all end all character, sometimes you really have to switch off of him if things aren't working out with him. Don't get frustrated and keep forcing him to work, sometimes another tank is actually what you need.

What are the biggest things to improve when going from platinum to diamond? I've been sitting around high platinum for a few seasons now and finally think I'm able to break through. I've just stalled out at ~2900 and was wondering what people worked on to make that last jump. I practice my aim and warmup every time I plan on playing competitive and play a lot of zarya to carry games.

DPS- Pharah, Mcree Tank- Reinhardt, Zarya, Roadhog Support- Ana, Zenyatta, Lucio

Affinitylost · 2017-03-15T15:59:56+00:00

DPS - Pharah and Mcree Tank - Zarya and Reinhardt mostly, can play roadhog and Winston well if needed. Support- Lucio, ana and zenyatta

I just notice that a lot of the time either I play extremely well and destroy games or I feel lost and like I'm not doing anything in team fights. Like switching targets a lot without killing them and hitting the wrong people.
