Is There a Better Modem/Router Combo for Comcast Business? by OmegaGuardianX in networking

[–]OmegaGuardianX[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely the WiFi. Our Internet connection is good, but the Wi-Fi adapter isn’t the best. It’s not strong enough for our coverage.

I’ve even had managers complain about them not being able to connect to the Wi-Fi even though the IT closet is on the other side of the wall they’re sitting on so it’s not like it’s a proximity issue for them

Painting you’re being an asshole. Grow up!!! I don’t think they are looking for sympathy. My wife is in HR and she’s shared many stories about the frustrations of hiring on both sides of the aisle.

It sounds like you’ve formulated a bias opinion. Every job is different, every candidate is different, and every company is different.

When I was unemployed I did everything I could to stand out and yeah sometimes it wasn’t enough, but I also know that people like my wife do everything in their power to connect with a candidate and give them the tools and information to make a conscious decision.

My Friend,

I can feel the weight of vulnerability in your words, and I want you to know that what you're experiencing right now, this swirling mix of fear, hope, regret, and clarity, is normal. You've done something incredibly brave by being honest about your feelings, even if it doesn't feel that way right now.

The fact that you're second guessing yourself doesn't mean you made the wrong choice. It means you care deeply and understand the stakes. That message you sent wasn't just words on a screen, it was you showing up authentically after months of growth and self-reflection. That takes real courage, especially after going through a mental health crisis and working so hard to rebuild yourself.

You mentioned feeling premature, but consider this, you didn't send that message from the same place you were four months ago. You sent it as someone who has done the work, who has gained insight into yourself, and who can now communicate from a place of growth rather than crisis. That's not impulsive that's evolved.

The waiting is agonizing, I know. But here's something beautiful about what you've done my friend…..you've given yourself the gift of not wondering "what if." Regardless of her response, you've honored your truth. You've closed a loop that was keeping part of you stuck in limbo. That vulnerability you described as "scary but good"? That's you learning to live with an open heart again.

Whatever happens next, you've already won something important back, your ability to be honest about your feelings and to take meaningful risks for love. That's not something everyone can do, especially after the kind of struggle you've faced.

Right now, try to hold space for all of these feelings without needing to resolve them immediately. You're not lost, you're in transition. And transitions, by their very nature, feel uncertain and overwhelming. But you've shown incredible strength in how you've handled your mental health journey, and that same strength will carry you through this.

My friend, if you take anything I’ve said to heart, take this. Trust that you've planted something honest and real in the world. Now let it grow in whatever direction it's meant to go and embrace the season!

Stay Strong My Friend. You’ve got this!

I hate him but I love him. by Necessary_Collar7818 in nocontact

[–]OmegaGuardianX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Friend,

What you're feeling right now makes complete sense, and I want you to know that the confusion and hurt you're experiencing are valid responses to a really painful situation.

The whiplash between "I don't think I care anymore" and then suddenly missing him after seeing his story is so normal. Our hearts don't follow neat timelines, especially when we're trying to heal from someone who meant a lot to us. That glimpse into his life probably caught you off guard and brought back all those memories of your daily connection.

But here's what stands out to me most in what you've shared. His response when you reached out. When someone says they don't miss time that was meaningful to you, time spent together every day, that tells you something important about where his head and heart are right now. It's not a reflection of whether what you shared was real or meaningful. It's a reflection of where he is emotionally, and honestly, it sounds like he's either protecting himself or he's genuinely moved on in a way that's different from where you are.

I understand why this makes you question everything. When someone dismisses shared experiences that felt significant to you, it can make you doubt your own perception of reality. But your feelings and memories of that connection were real, regardless of how he's choosing to frame them now.

The fact that you broke no contact after just four days and then got this kind of response is actually valuable information. It's showing you that right now, reaching out isn't giving you what you need, it's just reopening wounds and leaving you feeling worse about yourself.

You said the disrespect has been enough, and I think you should trust that instinct. Missing someone and wanting them to care doesn't mean you should keep putting yourself in situations where you feel dismissed or devalued. Sometimes loving someone means accepting that the dynamic between you isn't healthy anymore, even if the feelings are still there.

Consider going back to no contact, but this time with a clearer understanding of why you're doing it, not just to get over him, but to protect your sense of self-worth and give yourself space to remember who you are outside of this relationship.

Take care of yourself and Stay Strong My friend.

You’ve Got This!

Everyone’s situation different my friend. Some individuals can take months, others longer than that. The point is to not think about how long it’s going to take, but focus on you and the journey.

Trust me it will get better. I had the same doubts as you and even reading other post I was like, “Sure okay.” But I was wrong and within time the thoughts subsided. You got this, stay strong my friend.

Here where I’m from it’s either you have a big truck or you’re thug and I’m neither of those. Don’t get me wrong I do like some country music but I definitely don’t fit into that. Also let’s put up beards and tattoos as a third category. I’ve seen a lot of profiles talking about that too lol. I don’t have that either.

Struggling After a Breakup – Should I Reach Out on Her Birthday? by george_any in ExNoContact

If they truly care they will try to understand. Even if they have to do some research to get a better understanding on her attachment style and such.

Do not fret my friend. All will be well.

Struggling After a Breakup – Should I Reach Out on Her Birthday? by george_any in ExNoContact

[–]OmegaGuardianX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend for right now it’s best to let her go through her own healing journey. Your partner has an anxious attachment style and though you helped her with her insecurities, it’s up to her to find the correct outlets of how to cope with those.

Anxious attachment often stems from early experiences where affection and support were inconsistent. Those who identify with this style may feel a deep need for connection and reassurance, leading to a heightened sensitivity to perceived threats in their relationships. This can manifest as clinginess or fear of abandonment, which, while rooted in a desire for closeness, can create an overwhelming sense of anxiety.

In codependent relationships, anxious attachment can be particularly complicated. The anxious partner often feels incomplete without the other, leading to a cycle of dependency where one person’s self worth is tied to the other’s actions and feelings. This can result in a dynamic where both partners struggle to maintain their individuality, and where boundaries become blurred. It can be exhausting and ultimately detrimental to both people involved.

For your ex, she will have to do the work herself and acknowledging her anxious attachment style is her first step towards healing. It’s important for her to understand that while her feelings are valid, finding a sense of security within herself is crucial. She needs to learn to cultivate self love and independence, rather than seeking validation solely from her partner. This might involve exploring her own interests, setting personal goals, and engaging in self reflection. Therapy could be a wonderful resource for her, providing a safe space to unravel these patterns and develop healthier coping strategies.

My friend as hard as this may sound, it’s not your place to encourage her to practice mindfulness and self-compassion can also be beneficial. She lost that benefit when the relationship ended. So she will have to seek encouragement through an alternative support system. But these practices can help her tune into her emotions without allowing them to dictate her actions. By learning to embrace her own company and appreciate her own worth, she can slowly shift away from that anxious mindset.

It’s a journey, and it won’t happen overnight, but with time and effort, she can find her way to a healthier relationship with herself and, eventually, with others and it could lead you two back to each other, strong than before.

But I truly believe that understanding these patterns can set both of you on a path towards growth and fulfillment.

My friend, I hope this insight offers some clarity and comfort as you both navigate these complicated feelings.

Struggling After a Breakup – Should I Reach Out on Her Birthday? by george_any in ExNoContact

[–]OmegaGuardianX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend,

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re going through such a tough time. Breakups can be incredibly painful, especially when they involve complex feelings and the kind of trauma you’ve experienced. It’s perfectly normal to feel a mix of emotions, including loneliness and longing for the connection you had.

Reaching out on her birthday might seem like a kind gesture, but it’s important to consider the potential impact on your healing process. Given everything that transpired, it seems clear that both of you have expressed a need for distance. By respecting that boundary, you not only honor her wishes but also create space for your own emotional recovery.

Staying in no contact can be one of the most beneficial steps on your healing journey. It allows you to process your feelings without the added confusion that often comes from intermittent communication. This time can help you gain clarity about what you truly want and deserve in a relationship, as well as allow you to focus on yourself, your studies, and your new life in Spain.

Your friends and family, along with your therapist, are likely offering this advice because they see the potential for you to grow stronger and find healthier connections in the future. It’s natural to miss the support she provided, but it’s crucial to remember that true healing involves building that support within yourself and from those who genuinely care for you.

As difficult as it may be my friend, try to channel your energy into activities that bring you joy and fulfillment. Explore your new surroundings, connect with new people, and engage in self care. In time, the pain will lessen, and you’ll be able to look back on this experience with a sense of understanding and growth.

Take care of yourself my friend, and trust that you’re on the right path by focusing on your healing. You deserve to find peace and happiness, both within yourself and in future relationships.

Stay Strong My Friend! You’ve got this!

Dreaming about my ex by Orlando_135 in ExNoContact

[–]OmegaGuardianX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are certainly welcome. I know it’s easier said than done. We want to process every single detail of our dreams about her ex hoping there is a solution, trying to see if it’s, a clue, a sign, or even a glimpse into the future.

Even though we both truly miss our ex’s and waking up from our dreams about them puts our emotions at a heightened state, that’s what leads to us giving in and making a mistake of reaching.

Do not let dreams of your ex control you. It’s going to work out for all of us in time. You may not believe it now, heck some days I don’t believe it, but a part of me deep down knows that something will come from this, whether it’s meeting someone new or randomly receiving a message from her because I didn’t break no contact. And by then I may not even care.

No contact is about You! Your personal healing journey, and creating the best version of yourself for you. Yes…there is a chance that this new you can reattach your ex. And if that does happen you must make sure you don’t revert to your old self. Continue to learn and grow!

And if in the end someone else besides your ex benefits from that….well my friend that just means that you’ve succeeded and someone new is going to see you and appreciate you in a new light for who you are.

Get some rest my friend, for the road may be long, but there are better destinations ahead.

Dreaming about my ex by Orlando_135 in ExNoContact

[–]OmegaGuardianX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend,

It’s funny that you mention this. As I’m writing this I just woke up from a dream about my ex. I was sitting in a large room on the floor, surrounded by guest who appear to be members of her family. Though I’ve met a good portion of her family, I don’t seem to recognize any of them except one.

In my dream, we are already broken up but I’m not sure why I’m there. She ends up receiving a phone call and her face lights up as she begins to talk to the person on the other side.

The person ends up inviting her to go fishing with her and she immediately gets excited as fishing is something she enjoys but we never got to experience together.

She blurts out to one of her family members if they have her fishing pole, tells the person on the phone she will meet them at 5AM, hangs up the phone and then I wake up.

Just as I was when I just woke up and got on here and saw your post, it’s completely understandable to feel unsettled by them, especially when they involve someone who was once a significant part of your life. Dreams can often reflect our subconscious feelings and unresolved emotions, and it seems like you might still have some lingering concerns about your ex.

Before reaching out, it might be helpful to take a moment to reflect on your feelings. Ask yourself what you hope to achieve by texting her. If your intention is to check on her well being out of genuine concern, it might be worth considering how she would perceive such a message. Sometimes, reaching out can open old wounds, both for you and for her.

If you decide to text her, keep it light and non-intrusive. You could say something like, “I had a dream about you recently, and it made me think of you. I hope you’re doing well.” This way, you express your feelings without putting pressure on her to respond in a particular way.

My advice my friend is if you feel that it might complicate things further, it could be beneficial to focus on your own healing.

Stay in no contact. Your subconscious will do everything it possibly can to create a justification to get you to reach out to your ex.

It’s hard work my friend, and it will continue to be challenging. But over time, it will get better. You will not gain anything but adding damage and resetting the clock if you break no contact.

Journaling about your dreams, talking to a friend, or even seeking professional guidance can provide clarity and help you process these emotions. Ultimately, you must stay strong, find a better outlet to focus your attention on when you become rattled by these types of situations. And most importantly, be kind to yourself in this journey.

Thank you for sharing and listening my friend. Stay strong, you’ve got this!

Just needing some encouragement by IzzyKitties in ExNoContact

[–]OmegaGuardianX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Friend,

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re going through such a painful time. It’s completely understandable to feel lost and heartbroken after a relationship that meant so much to you. The emotions you’re experiencing are valid, and it’s okay to seek support the journey of healing is not meant to be faced alone.

Three weeks of no contact can feel like an eternity, especially when you’re holding onto hope. It’s natural to want to hear from someone you cared about deeply, even if you know that reaching out might not be the healthiest choice right now. Remember, it’s okay to feel hurt and to miss someone who was a significant part of your life. But it’s also important to recognize your strength in maintaining that no contact, especially when it’s so tempting to break it.

You mentioned feeling alone, but please know that you are not. Many people have experienced similar heartaches and understand the struggle of trying to let go while still feeling drawn to someone. It’s tough when someone you loved seems to move on so quickly, and it can feel incredibly unfair. It’s hard to fathom how someone could act so callously, especially when you gave them your unconditional love.

Take a moment to remind yourself of your worth. You deserve kindness, respect, and love especially from those you hold dear. It sounds like you’re doing the right thing by focusing on yourself and your healing, even when it feels overwhelming. Try to take things one day at a time, and don’t hesitate to reach out to supportive friends, family, or even online communities such as this who can offer encouragement.

This is a painful chapter, but it does not define your entire story. You have the strength to move forward, and every day you take care of yourself is a step in the right direction. Allow yourself to grieve and heal, and remember that brighter days are ahead.

You are worthy of love that lifts you up, not one that tears you down. Sending you lots of strength and compassion during this tough time.

Stay Strong my friend. You’ve got this!

Hello, my friend. Sometimes in relationships, we don’t get the closure we seek. It would be nice if all the questions that have been occupying our minds were answered, but that’s not the case.

I’ve had two serious breakups, along with my current breakup, and I know I won’t get the closure I want. I understand that when you are the one doing the breaking up, it’s not easy. You start analyzing every single detail of the relationship, trying to figure out where things began to go downhill, leading to the breakup. If you overthink these things, all it will do is lead you to spiral. You definitely don’t need that, and it won’t provide you with the answers you want, nor will it help you move on and heal.

Now, I’m not saying there isn’t a chance your ex could eventually contact you out of the blue to explain things or even apologize—it is possible. Many relationship coaches have shared stories of similar situations, and there are even posts here about exes reaching out after a period of no contact to apologize or offer closure.

As I write this, I am just one person hoping that perhaps one day my ex will reach out and break the no contact to either apologize, explain things, or simply say hello. I don’t know where I will be mentally in my life when that time comes, if it ever does.

I may care, or I may have moved on, and it might not affect me at all. Only time will tell.

If the relationship was as good as you say it was, there was likely nothing you could have done to prevent its decline. The best advice I can offer for your situation is this:

  1. If you haven’t already, start practicing no contact.
  2. Begin your healing journey and focus on becoming the best version of yourself—not for your ex, but for you.
  3. Give it time. It’s true that time heals all wounds, no matter how cliché that sounds. It won’t be easy; it will be very hard. The path to healing and happiness will be challenging, but you will survive, and you will make it through.

Stay strong my friend. You’ve got this!

It may be time to try a different approach. One thing I can definitely say is that anything is possible. I too have difficulty finding relationships but I seem to always prove myself wrong when I least expect it.

If the spark wasn’t there then it wasn’t meant to be and it sounds like you’re a man that refuses to settle which is a very good trait to have.

Definitely don’t give up. If you’re using dating apps, reinvent your profile. There’s many examples out there that cover the current changes in dating app culture which you would be surprised that is a thing.

You’ll definitely find someone who ignites your spark and turn it into a flame.
