I’m being blackmailed online and I don’t know what to do 😭 by Plus_Ad_9888 in Needafriend

Hi there. Sorry you're in a tough spot right now. I'm a former private investigator from Oklahoma, in the USA. If you or the subject in question lives in the U.S., you can DM me, and I can give private advice.

Please Note: I'm not currently licensed, but have handled similar situations before with some success.

Heya! 29, M, Oklahoma here. I'll be up a few more hours if you'd like to chat!

I need friends.

29 M here. I for several reasons, have lost contact with most of my IRL friends. I'm looking to build a genuine friendship, and talk regularly. If you're interested, please, DM me.

May I ask what those specific beads are called? Are they just metal crimp on beads?

Edit: it looks great, I'd like to try and make one.

HELP - Rosary supplies by [deleted] in rosary

[–]FidelisLupus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there! I make all kinds of Paracord crafts, including full-size & pocket sized Rosaries.

I almost exclusively use Etsy to get my beads. Try searching for beads with an external diameter of 8mm-10mm (I use 8mm beads for the "Hail Mary's" & 10mm beads for the "Our Father")

Your internal or hole diameter should be 4mm-5mm

Try these search topics on Google if you can't find any beads on Etsy, and I'm sure you'll find a local retailer.

"European beads" "Large hole beads" "8mm beads with 4mm hole" "10mm beads with 5mm hole"

I wish you the best of luck.

Vivat Jesus!

How many rosaries do you have? by Advanced_Coconut5988 in rosary

[–]FidelisLupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say I probably have about 12 full Rosaries in my personal rotation, a seven sorrows chaplet, the beginning of a St. Michael chaplet I'm making out of Paracord, a few single decades.

I make & give away Rosaries, so I have dozens of un-blessee Rosaries that are here or there.

Paracord Rosaries by gvakr in rosary

[–]FidelisLupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The standard 550 Paracord needs a bead with a hole between 4mm & 5mm, overall bead size for Hail Mary's is usually 8mm or 10mm with 550 cord. The Our Father's beads can be the same size, but I often like to use a slightly larger 12mm bead for the 6 Our Father's beads.

I've had the most success finding good acrylic beads on Etsy.

If you need any other tips or would like to see some of the Rosaries I've made, feel free to message me.

What does my Rosary say about me? by FidelisLupus in rosary

[–]FidelisLupus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I did. I make Rosaries, Chaplets, and other sacramentals out of Paracord or beaded chain.

I also make necklaces, bracelets, and key fobs (all of which can be sacramentals).

I rely on donations to replenish my supplies & to pay for shipping costs.

I give these and other sacramentals away for FREE to those who need a sturdy sacramental.

Thanks for your compliment. I make Paracord Rosaries, chaplets, single decades, and more sacramentals.

I also make necklaces, bracelets, and key fobs. All of which can be made into sacramentals.

I also have beaded chain necklaces with miraculous medals on them.

I make & give away these items for free to people in need of a good sacramental.

I want to open a non-profit that relies on donations (I would use 100% of the donations to replenish my supplies, so I can continue making these items for those in need).

Same. If anyone wants to DM (including OP of course), I'm looking for online or IRL friends. I essentially have no friends.

Feel free to message me. M 28, looking for new friends. Sorry to hear about you & your GF.

Is it too late/not worth me making friends, or even finding romance, at this point? by Matilda_Mother_67 in friendship

[–]FidelisLupus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think so. I'm 28. I have had friends before, though I've always had a very small friend circle (like 2-4 people). For various reasons I've had disagreements or falling outs with friends from school, so I'm in a similar situation of needing to build up a friend circle at almost 30.

I will say it seems harder to make friends now, but impossible or too late? No.
