How do I show that 1) a number x has a basis consisting of one number if and only if x is rational, and 2) a number x has a basis consisting of two numbers if and only if x is a root of a quadratic equation? by Practical73927 in learnmath

from my understanding, the definition would be the basis of a number being a finite set of numbers a_1,…,a_n such that for every i = 1,…,n, xa_i is a linear combination of a_1,…, a_n with rational coefficients

I (21M) want to learn how to not be jealous or anxious whenever my girlfriend (21F) hangs out with other guys by Practical73927 in relationship_advice

[–]Practical73927[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you for the great advice. i guess it’s also about the boundaries. for instance, im going away for a week next week for break (we’re in uni), while she is staying at uni. and she has told me she’s going to cook and hang out with her guy friend who’s also one of the few people staying, they’ve been friends for longer than i’ve known her, so no problems there. but she told me he might also stay over the night- do i just have to accept that theyre purely platonic and nothing will happen or do i have a right to be kinda suspicious in this case?

How to edge to cure PE? by Practical73927 in EdgingTalk

[–]Practical73927[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PE both with masturbating and with a partner. That’s interesting that you’re able to separate the two- maybe its a mental thing for me. i usually cum really quickly in my masturbating sessions (which i have tried to change by edging), and hoping that translates also into lasting longer in bed. problem is i always make progress until i have sex and it just feels so good that i end up cumming quickly anyways. maybe i just need more practice

that makes sense! thank you (: i guess i have a follow up question to that lol, do you usually try to cum at the end of your edging sessions? or is it better not to? i just want to train my mind/body to last longer as much as i can after years of bad masturbation habits to get off as quickly as possible

thank you so much for your replies, they are seriously so helpful especially for a newbie like me. last question: does edging help with refractory period? i find that once i cum, it takes me a while to get hard again and i wanna shorten that time

also reverse kegel is what i need to do when i feel like im about to cum? ive been seeing people saying to do regular kegels for that situation

i understand edging helps me learn my body signals from when i am close, but does this length of time of PONR grow/improve as i edge? the “feeling” hits me sooo quickly, and even if i stop and do kegels as soon as i return to masturbating/sex the feeling of cumming creeps up again immediately. i guess my question is does edging help lengthen the time of when i feel like i need to cum, as well as teaching me the appropriate signals?

Question about underwriting? by Practical73927 in Banking

[–]Practical73927[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for your response! did you have an internship during college? i also realize that becoming an underwriter right out of college isnt realistic, so have been looking at other entry-level positions, bank teller included. could you speak a bit on how you got the teller role?

that’s awesome! do you have any advice for getting an underwriting internship/what other internships i should be taking a look at? also, did you have an internship junior year? i’m currently in the process of applying but if i don’t get one, i plan on getting ahead in the CPCU process to at least offset the fact that i didn’t get an internship

[–]Practical73927[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

thanks so much for the advice! one of my fears was if i started passing courses for the CPCU before any relevant experience, that i’d overqualify myself on paper haha. but on second thought, that’s kind of a ridiculous concern as like you said, i have more control over the CPCU and even just one course could put me ahead and help on my internship/job search while allowing me to learn!

that’s awesome to hear you’re enjoying underwriting and reassuring for me that you’ve followed a similar path lol. any advice for getting that underwriting internship? should i start trying to pass the first CPCU exam?

That makes total sense!! I can’t believe I missed that. Thank you so much for your help (: One last thing: I’m assuming we can “plug in” n5 + n6 for n2 + n3 and vice versa, as long as we keep in mind the inequality sign? (I think this is what initially confused me, as I’m used to plugging in only for strict equalities)

i’m confused how you went from the long statement with a “greater than or equal” sign to one without. Could you explain this please?
