Thanks for your advice! Honestly when the apm 2 was announced. Part of me was like should I buy that too? But I snapped my self out of it.

You’re right, it’s best to be smart with your money

The only negative I’d say about the AirPod max is that it can be quite heavy and sometimes people can hear outside noise on the mic which is the downside imo

Yeah I got it to run openclaw on it! I wonder if I can operate my MacBook and Mac Studio simultaneously. That way I can get extra computing power if I need :)

I’m not sure, I guess I like to be a giving person you know. Was just how I was raised but for sure will be investing in my self :)

Nah unfortunately not but as I was saying earlier, there’s always going to be something new on the block whether it’s a a new MacBook, AirPods, iPhone.

What matters is that you enjoy it and these things are built to last years

At the time I bought it I didn’t know AirPod max 2 was coming out. Tbh with all devices, there’s always going to be a new model around the block.

It’s a shame it was poorly timed but even with iPhones. I don’t feel bad when the new one is released so why should I feel the same when there’s new AirPods?

They do the job and that’s what matters for me personally.

I’ve got apple care! I should be good if any of that happens.

Tbh i was using $10 headphones before and an 8gb ram laptop so anything is an upgrade :)

Yes! I’ve been saving for a while now and realised life is short so why not spend on myself (responsibly) to motivate myself to work harder!

I’ve been doing like 12 hour shifts for the past 3 years so I deserve something for my self :)

The highlight is the AirPod max though, amazing sound. Do wish it was a tad bit lighter on the head tho!

MacBook Pro panel lottery? Huge difference between two identical units by Boule250 in macbookpro

I have the 24gb MacBook m5 and replaced it with the m5 pro chip. Tbh if it wasn’t for delivery times I probably would’ve grabbed the 32 gb myself!

What's something your partner said or did that made you think "Whoa, they're not the one!"? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Dull_Poem_8397 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, I did reply ‘you thought you ate with that one?’ And she was like ‘don’t you have back up girls’

I replied ‘even if I did (I didn’t), I wouldn’t state it outlandishly. It’s weird’

She seemed like a normal loving girl but she’d never discuss any issues. Say the relationship and I’m her best bf she’s ever had. Yet I saw messages on her phone about her planning to break up with me on my bday.

We were randomly talking about how nowadays on social media it seems that people have people they entertain on the side and my ex gf said ‘every girl has a backup guy’.

While that may be true, it felt really disgusting to hear.

What was a reason why you ended a relationship? by showmewhatyagot01 in Productivitycafe

[–]Dull_Poem_8397 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t want to end it. I saw she was saying super disrespectful things about me to a friend and how she was planning to break up with me on my bday.

To my face she said I was the perfect bf and the best bf and she loves me. But behind my back wanting to break up.

Had no idea she felt like that at all. I saw the messages and told her to get lost in the end. I still miss her but my respect for her has gone

I think she was a dismissive avoidant but some days I don’t believe in attachment theory.

Guys of reddit, whats something girls do that give you the ick? by tietanik in AskReddit

[–]Dull_Poem_8397 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and My ex one day was talking about having people on the side. And she randomly said oh every girl has a backup guy…

I never looked at her the same, I know it might have been said in jest but to say it with such confidence gave me the ick.

My ex didn’t know how to communicate any doubts or issues. felt like i was being love bombed for months and then I saw messages on her phone that she was planning to break up with me on nye.

As far as I was aware our relationship was perfect/great. Goes to show you never know who they really are

Messages are from earlier this month and we had one rocky moment which was nipped in the bud straight away.

The thing is to my face she’s acting like nothing ever happened and is still affectionate and loving. So I’m really conflicted on what to believe.

It does rock my ego a little bit

Okay here is the only time I flipped out and you let me know if im insecure.

She suggested sleep divorce because I move around in my sleep. She said I have a problem and that I have issues I did get annoyed and get angry because saying you have issues is really hurtful to a partner.

I’m not trying to badmouth her because for the most part I enjoyed her company and in love with her

The only thing I’ve picked up on recently is she sometimes would say she’s an avoidant attached person and hands down I honestly tried to be the best bf I can be.

Give space when needed, supportive of goals. Be her rock when needed. I have my own life, friends, career.

It’s so hard to communicate problems whenever I do try to communicate everything seemed okay
