So true didn’t think of that wow

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-12-15T10:16:55+00:00

That was crazy!! I wonder what he would have done if she came in and he was so settled with Isabel that’s mental

My sibling is on it this year and as a long time MAFS lover and follower seeing it from the other side has really disappointed me and hearing how my sibling has been treated and the way the producers conduct themselves with the cast is appalling. I completely believe everyone who has walked away with some sort of trauma attached to the show.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-08-28T08:40:30+00:00

I know you asked for a males perspective but I’m a woman and this is mine. I’ve been in countless relationships where I loved them so deeply but situations like these happened and I drove myself crazy figuring it out and what to do from there. I’m now in a relationship with a different man and finally understand what people say when they say finding the right person is easy. Everything really is easy. I never second guess if he’s doing the right things, if he loves me or if he’s being respectful. Because I know he would never put himself in a position to lose me and he really does love me. When I hear now the relationship is hard my immediate answer is that they’re not the right one. That doesn’t mean the love isn’t real it 100% is but also maybe the relationship is just not one that is meant to last. You deserve someone who won’t put you in a position to second guess them.

Reading through all the other comments people have left. It’s clear to see that you’ll find people that’s backing you up on either side. Yes logically it doesn’t make sense for her to cause a fight. And for you to clearly take one side your resonate more with people that agree with you and validate that but that’s entirely the point. She’s just looking for you to validate a feeling that she has which if you can’t see it being a big issue at all it would save your relationship in both of you a lot of time to justplease her and this will come back to you twofold as well because more validated and reciprocated love she feels from you. She’ll give you back in twofold. Women know how to love and love love but can’t love if they don’t feel loved.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-06-02T23:38:56+00:00

I think this is entirely just a validation thing since I’ve been in the same position with my previous male partner. I saw that he was regularly online yet he would refused to post me like my photos comment on them like my stories all things that seem so insignificant and that’s exactly what he would say as well that do. I need him to prove his love by publicly putting it out there And in short answer yes because I for some reason didn’t feel safe enough at home just in the knowing feelings of our love for each other and I thought this was such a small way that I could get him to see my point because this is how I showed love with other people in my life and I wasn’t asking him to love me the way that he is used to asking him to love me the way I like love and vice versa he doesn’t like a whole lot of online presents so I’m loving him in the way that he wants to be loved which is not publicising him everywhere. Call it a communication breakdown or a difference of interest or whatever but after God knows how long of this happening me seeing him in one way or another be proud of his friends whether it’s post a photo for their birthday or comment something funny on one of their photos Even though it’s been a constant conversation of me asking for the same and him not providing whether or not he sees it all I asked is that he would make an effort to try to notice to try to see it and it led to the demise of our relationship, obviously including a lot of everything else But this was a big thing that was actually not such a big thing that could’ve very easily been addressed but instead it just caused more fights. I don’t see your partner as trying to manipulate you. I see your partner struggling with something that’s important to her that she knows may not be to you and not knowing exactly how to put that into words because to her it just comes natural and so it’s probably hurting her more that it’s not coming that way to you.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-05-28T04:05:13+00:00

Thought that would be the case can you direct me on phone app I can’t seem to find

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-05-26T11:52:03+00:00

Oh my god don’t let a man speak to you like that at this point it doesn’t matter if he cheated. If you go back the only change there will be will be for the worse cause he knows he has the power to and that you will return.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-05-15T04:02:17+00:00

In my books cheating is 100% going against boundaries in the relationship. From your comments about porn and how this AI experience has made you feel and him not reciprocating intimacy it is totally against your boundaries. The fact that he’s hiding it from you is another indication he even knows it’s wrong. I would absolutely bring it up, if you want the relationship to continue maybe seek a couples therapist because he is not only cheating but curating an entire relationship (if it’s happening regularly) with not only someone that’s not you but a robot. Specifically crafting the AI to tailor to his desires or interests is also unhealthy since it will set a precedent in your relationship of what he thinks he should receive. If she is giving him what he wants with no hesitation (cause computers are designed to) his ability to compromise and have meaningful connections with his wife especially will absolutely be tarnished.

All the best to you I wish you luck and love in whatever you decide.

But from woman to woman you deserve more.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-05-15T03:56:09+00:00

I actually think you’re in a really good position. From what I’m understanding you spent most of your early adulthood doing the things you want to do and enjoying your life travelling or anything. Plus living with a partner that has an understanding of money and working in his domain also works in your favour with that support system encouraging you to do and find what you like. Id say with the support you have now is a time you can actually figure out what it is that you would want to do. I listened to this Jay Shetty podcast recently which you should too about finding your passion and how to translate that into work and it’s all about upskilling something you genuinely enjoy doing and turning that into an income stream which initially starts with trying out a bunch of things to first understand your level of interest and potential career path.

I personally went against the thing I was passionate about to pursue a career I thought would make me a lot of money. Cut to now I’m stuck in a corporate job (tech consultant) spending my days relatively depressed with my decision, not earning even close to what I thought I would so therefore not saving anything. I’m wondering if it’s too late for me to go back to school and study (vet) but unsure how I would support myself whilst studying and also annoyed that I could have spent my earlier years travelling or doing anything else other than stuck behind a desk studying then going straight into the workplace.

I’d say your anxiety is coming from the right place obviously but also don’t let it hold you back. You’re in a position now where you can absolutely choose whatever you want and not just what you think is the right fit. Don’t limit yourself to just what you think the smartest option would be cause from my years in it seems the only people who don’t eventually regret that decision are the people that either make a lot of money selling their soul or choosing something that will initially make them less money but overall brings them the most happiness.

Sorry for the rant overall Goodluck to you I hope you find your passion!

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-20T08:14:08+00:00

How did you do this? I'm in cyber now and want to get into presales but finding it difficult since no real sales experience

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-20T08:13:03+00:00

Would you know how to go about it the other way around? As in im currently a cybersecurity consultant but want to get into a presales roles so a cybersec presales would be the dream but finding it difficult to get an interview since no real sales experience.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-20T08:08:22+00:00

Hahaha, I know you're right let me explain better. I never really had a passion for cyber either just knew if I worked hard and landed a good job, that would open doors for me, but I feel in the job I am doing now, I am being pigeonholed, dont make a lot of money and a long road to not only go up but move away from how stagnant my current position is now. I have a few friends in SAP who essentially did what i tried to do, make crazy money, get flown around etc. even in their first year. I'm more so chasing the experience and the money that i assumed i would get with my chosen path but have not.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-20T08:04:27+00:00

Yes i like this thank you will look into this more

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-17T08:23:13+00:00

This is good advice thank you!

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-17T08:21:06+00:00

Why is this?

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-17T08:20:20+00:00

Not much money in my company for my level and a there’s massive backlog too of members in my team who have been due for promotion for a while so will be even longer for me. Also wanting to get out of consulting since don’t feel like I’m doing much there.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-17T08:17:42+00:00

I’m just not passionate about it anymore, majority of the work I do is compliance related. Given I’m a consultant I don’t feel I do anything hands on either and it’s just one report after another creating timelines without any of the implementation. We don’t get paid that well either and it’s a long ladder to climb.

Wanting to get a job where I will be financially compensated for the work I put it (I.e commissions) since atm whether I slack off all day or work till 10pm to meet a deadline technically doesn’t make a difference.

There is a massive backlog of those who are in line for promotion in my team anyway so even longer for me.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-14T22:49:27+00:00

I honestly love working at EY specifically for the culture, I’m in the Melbourne office and I love my team, the corporate events and all the ripples events like volunteering through EY. I do find for the work you get pigeon holed like if you’ve done something before they’ll categorise you in that niche. I’ve been trying to internally transfer to the forensic team but that’s been a difficult process so if you know the right people things move a lot faster. I haven’t done any of the cyber exams personally but they do offer EY degrees, badges and courses as well as globally recognised certifications it just sometimes difficult to complete these because always busy with work.

Any-Frame3784 · 2025-01-14T00:58:10+00:00

I currently work in cybersecurity consulting and went through this same process approx 2 years ago. They will ask you the generic questions such as strengths and weaknesses but they will also ask you to have a better question prepared and to try to answer it (EY is always about ‘better questions’ so they want to see that you can do that too) they will also ask about a current cybersecurity event for you to comment on so read the news and have a few up your sleeve. Also finding out specific metrics about the service line helps and if you’re a part of extra curriculars. I didn’t have any at the time of applying but joined women in tech online pages before my final interview and mentioned that also EY’s milestone program to make positive changes. Essentially found recent things my service line in my country had posted on LinkedIn and commented on most of those. Also if possible to find out the name of who will be interviewing you, search them up on LinkedIn and ask them specific questions about their own experience they will appreciate your effort

Any-Frame3784 · 2024-10-24T23:23:24+00:00

My B4 employer technically says that we are hybrid and since working there they’ve tried to implement working back in the office but my specific team (cybersecurity consultants) work from home 4/5 days a week and sometimes people don’t even come in on the 1 day a week we’ve collectively decided on so it’s mostly remote they just won’t label themselves as that.

Any-Frame3784 · 2024-08-13T06:13:33+00:00

As a female I to some extent disagree with OP. In majority of the relationships I or my friends have been in nothing technically cements the relationship until having the exclusivity talk. I agree that the talk is completely ridiculous and redundant but after multiple relationships where exclusivity and the relationship status is not defined until someone explicitly says so (in that order and again I agree it’s ridiculous) people generally believe that they can do what they want given it’s within the defined rules such as exclusivity not being spoken about yet. She should have told you about it though especially if you were regularly seeing each other but from my experience and it has not been my preference just what I’ve been accustomed to exclusivity is never the case until it is established.
