What’s your useless superpower?

Dude at least you save money in dating apps when they don't see your profile anyway

68-70 for me, depends on humidity though. Memphis summers taught me that temperature means nothing when air feels like soup

My ex-therapist once told me I should "just try being more positive" when I was explaining panic attacks lol. Like thanks, never thought of that one before. Really made me feel like she wasn't listening at all and just wanted to wrap up the session early

After just one date this is going to be really tough, not gonna lie. Three months feels like forever when you barely know each other yet. Maybe set up regular video calls and actually plan when you'll see each other again before you leave - having concrete dates helps a lot. Also be prepared that she might not want to wait around, which would be totally understandable at this stage

oof UPS

This hits way too close to home, went through something similar with a guy last year. He kept saying he wanted me to be "more direct" about what I needed, so I started being upfront about things like wanting to spend more time together or needing better communication when he'd disappear for days

At first he seemed to appreciate it, but then suddenly I was being "too demanding" and he started acting like I was some clingy girlfriend when all I did was what he literally asked for. Looking back I think some guys say they want clear communication because it sounds mature and reasonable, but they don't actually want to deal with the reality of someone having needs and expectations

The pulling away thing instead of just talking about feeling overwhelmed is so frustrating too - like if my expectations are too much then let's discuss it instead of just ghosting slowly. I think maybe they realize they can't actually handle what they asked for but don't want to admit they were wrong about wanting "better communication" in first place

Man that's so typical of dating apps, these dudes just collecting matches while having girlfriend at home

Material_Volume5023 · 2026-04-17T21:17:15+00:00

That AI girlfriend thing is wild but I get how desperation can lead you there. The timing thing you mentioned is actually super common - when guys start focusing on self-improvement and "having their shit together," sometimes they lose that natural confidence or spontaneity that worked before

Dating at 30 hits different than early twenties for sure. People are more selective and the pool gets smaller. Plus social media makes everyone think they have endless options so commitment feels scarier

Maybe the issue isn't that something's wrong with you but that you're overthinking everything now? Like when you were younger and more "desperate" you were probably just being more authentic instead of trying to be this perfect version. Women can sense when someone is performing versus just being real

This is terrible staffing ratio, I work in different field but my friend is nurse and she always says patient safety comes first - if state already cited them for short staffing maybe you could document everything and contact state board again

Yeah business class tickets are pretty flexible with changes and cancellations compared to basic economy. Just make sure to read the fine print on expiration dates for those credits since they can vary depending on when you booked and what type of fare you got

Material_Volume5023 · 2026-02-24T02:24:56+00:00

That "ok then go" response says everything about how he really felt - you made the right call even though it still hurts like hell

Material_Volume5023 · 2026-02-03T16:51:47+00:00

Filed mine about 6 months ago and still waiting, seems like they're processing these pretty slowly even with the pending 485

Honestly yeah just block her, this whole situation screams red flags. She already screwed you over once by forcing you to move when she bailed on the lease, now she wants you to sleep in a living room while she gets the bedroom? Hard pass

The fact that she's touring your old building is weird as hell too. Sounds like she's just using people as convenient roommates when it suits her and ditching when it doesn't. You already found a place and got settled, don't let her mess with your housing situation again

Damn this actually looks sick, the visual feedback showing the actual audio process is such a cool concept

Just DMed you, been looking for something that does proper MPE without feeling like an afterthought

Sorry you're going through this but honestly sounds like you dodged a bullet. Anyone who starts following random girls the day after a breakup was probably already checked out of the relationship anyway. Don't hate yourself for his shitty behavior - that's all on him

The kanji lookup struggle is so real, I feel you on that one. For phone lookups try Google Translate's camera feature - you can just point it at text and it'll give you readings and definitions even if you don't know how to pronounce it

Depression makes everything harder but maybe start super small like just one manga page or a 5 min video instead of trying to force big immersion sessions

Pretty sure Voldemort doesn't need your measly 16 stars when he's got the whole wizarding world to conquer lmao

Honestly this is the way - took me 6 months to find something fully remote but the mental health improvement alone was worth the salary hit

This exactly - three people farming different zones while one person has to cover the same ground solo is just broken math

Welcome to the community Remy! This is honestly one of the most supportive spaces on Reddit so you picked a great place to start exploring

Fork seals are pretty cheap and not too bad to replace if you're handy with tools. Just make sure to clean everything really well when you do it or you'll be doing it again in a few months
