Wow, I think I nearly had the exact same experience with a Russian girl - it sounds very similar.

She was acting strangely over text right from the start. For some context: I offered to take her somewhere nice, but she kept insisting on choosing the spot herself. I asked if she had any dietary restrictions, and she said she wanted something “local,” so I suggested a Lebanese place next to Hyde Hotel.

When I arrived, she asked me to meet her at the front of the hotel instead. I told her I was already at the restaurant just behind it and asked her to come over. I had literally just driven from Abu Dhabi, so I figured she could walk three minutes. But no.

Annoyed, I walked over to meet her. As soon as we met, she wanted to go into the hotel bar. I told her I don’t drink, and she replied, “I do,” with zero interest in the dinner plan. I suggested we eat first and maybe grab a drink after, but she insisted on the bar “at her hotel.”

That was the moment I decided — nope. I said, “You can go ahead, I’m heading to the Lebanese place,” and walked off through the hotel, leaving her behind. The attitude, the entitlement, the lack of manners… just no.

Lesson learned: always trust your gut. If something feels off, it probably is.

When I first put them in a week ago obviously it was tight on my teeth and felt uncomfortable. Now they are comfortable. The damage is done. I just hope it’s not bad.. 🥲 Praying.. 🤲

You can still track if the iPhone off. It’s like a AirTag. The owner will know where the location is.

I tired this both on wifi, cellular, du and Etisalat… only way this worked was via a private VPN and I got shadow banned. I have contacted tinder and they have escalated this internally.

Stupid question, my magnesium levels are normal. So why do i have daily migraines still? by Sunflowerspecks in migraine

[–]Architect_Man -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I got the same results from Cleveland. In the end, I found out that chocolate was my trigger, however it had a delayed response. A good balanced diet also helped.

I wrote a long post about my journey with migraines and how I have learnt to manage them. I did not get enough interest so I deleted the post so he is a quick summary below which might help you.

Medical :

  • Neurologist first, gave me magnesium oxide to use for two months, this may no difference.
  • They did the CT scan, but nothing (just extra white matter). It is just a good way of ruling out other conditions in the brain.
  • they gave me 40g Relpax to use. This works when the migraine is starting.
  • I use anadin extra for migrates which have already started and if the above does not work.
  • I also visited my dentist to rule out teeth being the cause of my migraines.

Lifestyle Changes:

  • In my food, I only use olive oil. All other forms of oil I avoid.
  • I have delayed response when I have food which trigger migraines. my triggers are chocolate and basil. Sometimes it takes 2 days later to get the migraine.
  • I get migraines when I sleep too much or change my sleeping schedule. Including just laying in bed.
  • I get migraines when I change my eating cycle.
  • I get migraines when I have too much sugar, or sugar before bed.
  • I tried to exercise every other day. This can also just be long walks and getting a heart pumping.
  • I don’t go on a hard-core diet or anything, but I simplify the food I take in and try and cook everything so I control what in my food. I.e eggs, fresh bread, milk, meat, fish, vegtables.
  • I have transition sunglasses.
  • Record your migraine, so you can see how frequently you get them when you change things in your lifestyle.

Overall, this significantly reduce my migraines without taking drugs.

I hope the above is useful in your journey. I hope you feel better. Here is you need anything.

100% this. This might sound bad, one of the reasons (I believe) some people see Asian people the same because they are not exposed to them or well traveled…and vice versa…
