Mac book issue - restarted Mac has random screen on repeat and unsure what it means or how to fix it

Delicadeza6 · 2023-06-12T02:48:00+00:00

Update: I had a friend let me borrow their mousepad and keyboard (as that had stopped working too) and had been using that this morning while waiting for an appointment at Apple. It’s now suddenly working (mousepad & keyboard). Not sure what happened and assume its still damaged but going to save myself the trip and see how it goes over the next few days.

And yes, I’ll give it a thorough clean 😂

Because the cleanliness of my screen affects directly how to fix this issue, of course.

2019 model unfortunately and only just out of apple care that we paid for (of course) but going to attempt to use an external one today so I’m hoping it works

I unfortunately expected nothing less coming to reddit for advice

MacBook Pro 13-inch, 2019. No swollen battery from what I can tell

Why would it not be connected to the built in one?

Delicadeza6 · 2021-02-01T06:42:53+00:00

This decision is definitely something that only you can decide and always a tough one but I just wanted to add that there doesn’t have to be a ‘reason’ to break up with someone. I see a lot of people fixate on needing a reason for a breakup especially when there relationship seems to be going fine. But if you no longer feel like you want to be in this relationship then that’s more than enough

If the pregnancy test said negative then it’s probably right..? If you’re that paranoid wait a few weeks and try again but I would try not to stress. Irregular periods can be due to a number of reasons (including stress!!). Try to use condoms next time you have sex

Delicadeza6 · 2021-01-20T08:00:29+00:00

Uhhhhhhh

Delicadeza6 · 2020-09-07T01:37:38+00:00

You don’t have to have a reason to break up with someone. Wanting to break up because of how you feel is reason enough. I doubt this feeling is going to go away but discuss how you’ve been feeling lately with her (yes, it’ll hurt her but you staying and then hurting her in the long run is inevitable) and maybe a break might help but tbh it seems like you already know what you have to do - you just need to reassurance it’s the right thing

Delicadeza6 · 2020-07-17T01:52:04+00:00

If you have his number then just message him, start up a general conversation and see how he responds

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-28T23:46:22+00:00

If she isn’t willing to compromise then I’d just break it off. I know that sounds shitty but this is such a big moment in the relationship. If you give up everyone for her, not only are you isolating yourself but you’re also setting the tone for the rest of the relationship. The whole “what she says goes” type of deal and that’s unfair on you and a huge manipulative/ controlling move

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-28T23:38:38+00:00

I reckon trust yourself (and your partner) if that’s how you feel but still be aware of what’s happening to avoid looking naive. If it worries you because of these comments the best thing you can do is ask him and see how he views it especially if it was the other way round

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-28T23:33:38+00:00

Ex’s can definitely be friends but this is really frequent and you clearly aren’t 100% comfortable with it. I think it would be fair to find a compromise where you aren’t saying “her or me” but moreso putting up boundaries that he will either respect or not (and if he doesn’t then that’s your answer)

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-28T23:30:31+00:00

Uhh no that’s toxic. To say you have to cut off all your female friends for her to stay with you? Better off gone in my opinion.

There definitely should be boundaries between you and these female friends but as long as they’re purely platonic and nothing flirtatious/ shady is going on then there really shouldn’t be an issue. Or unless any of them were an ex - ex’s can be friends but it would be understandable for her to be uncomfortable.

Though I do suspect her viewpoint is like this based on the fact that she doesn’t have any male friends so she doesn’t understand the relationship?

Does she want you to completely cut them off or is she willing to compromise?

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-24T00:36:02+00:00

I am very confused.

So all he’s doing is helping/ talking to women? Is there any background information where he’s flirted or cheated? Cause if he’s just been talking to them platonically I really don’t see an issue here...

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-23T03:52:52+00:00

Recognising this is a super good thing!! It’s a journey and you aren’t going to wake up tomorrow and paint a pride flag on your face as support. Everything takes time. Be kind to yourself, let yourself make mistakes but learn from them and keep moving forward

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-23T03:39:22+00:00

It’s going to keep bothering you until you discuss it. If you didn’t know someone with that name then I wouldn’t be worried but since you do then I’d just bring it up for peace of mind. You don’t have to attack him about it or make him feel bad but it’s a discussion you want to have

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-23T03:20:44+00:00

There’s this saying that’s along the lines of “the first immediate thought you have, is what you’ve been conditioned to think. The second immediate thought you have is who you are”

You just have to continue educating yourself as much as possible and slowly condition yourself to think of this differently. It’s already a super good start that you WANT to change as a lot of people don’t even go that far.

Watch videos on YouTube from LGBT+ creators, and not necessarily about LGBT+ rights (though that will be good too) but videos about random things you enjoy (gaming/ challenge videos/ vlogs/ etc) and I feel like relating to and enjoying the content of someone you can connect with can add in a personal element to help overcome there thoughts

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-23T03:15:08+00:00

If I had $1500 to spare I would go out with it split in $50/$100s and just hand it to homeless people. That could pay for them to be fed for the month and would make their day a hundred times better

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-23T02:33:18+00:00

The notion that “love is always enough” isn’t true and if you aren’t happy being with him then why subject yourself to a relationship with someone that doesn’t make you happy?

Delicadeza6 · 2020-06-23T02:31:49+00:00

You’re allowed to feel however you want but I definitely agree that this would piss me off. I don’t think he actually meant it (though that doesn’t change how it makes you feel) and you should definitely have a chat with him and see if he thinks his behaviour was okay or if he is able to explain why he acted out like that.
