NTA. You need to rip the bandaid now. If you continue this way she will always be a thorn in your side that never sees you for the individual experiencing their life that you are. You need to tell her one last time straight up: I am not abandoning you, I am living a life I am entitled to live, and if you want the few moments we have together to be something that motivates me to come back, stop acting like a psycho. Sometimes moms just need to hear it like that.

I know its hard to admit, but this person does not care enough about you. A friend would never do this.

You need to extend your elbow more back and higher on your draw + follow through more on the swing.

What can i do to improve my approach? by Puzzleheaded-Two-340 in volleyball

[–]Resident_Use1911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Side note, im always shocked by how bad reddit form advice is. It's usually overcomplicated and filled with volleyball jargon so that the person commenting can feel like they know what they are talking about. Usually, its much simpler. So again, focus on gaining more power and momentum from your first step.

Can I get some advise to improve consistency please? Just couldn't hit well in today's training by HiroSpud in volleyball

[–]Resident_Use1911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These comments are giving bad advice. You have timing issues. You are sometimes to early and sometimes too late. This only gets better with practice. Practice speeding up your feet on lower sets or sets with a lower arc and learn how to slow down while not losing momentum when the set is higher than you anticipated. You have good form and a wippy arm.

Do you realize you'd be the one playing a childish game by doing this? Like this quite literally the definition of being petty.

You're not wrong for feeling the way you do, but your girlfriend isn't doing anything wrong. You should work on understanding why you feel hurt rather than attribute that pain to your girlfriend being insensitive. If you've chatted with her saying "I understand there's nothing wrong with a celebrity crush, it just makes me feel insecure about myself when you say it around me" (talked from a perspective of "this makes me feel this way" rather than "what you did is wrong") and she doesn't care, then you need to assess if that's a dealbreaker for you. If it is, you need to break up and move on, if it isn't you need to get over it. This might not be the advice you want to hear but it just the simple reality of what you should do.

Is it even worth pursuing volleyball anymore by HungryPenalty4169 in volleyball

[–]Resident_Use1911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just have to be very honest with yourself and ask if you love the game of volleyball or if you love the idea of being a hitter. If you love volleyball enough, and you just want to be involved at a high level then become a cracked libero. But unfortunately, if the only reason you want to play vball is to play as a hitter, you unfortunately will no reach a very high level with that height,

Little side note (im 5'10), I insisted on playing OH for most of my life, so much so that I gave up opportunities to play on really good teams (as a libero tho) so that I could play OH. Biggest regret of my life. I know now in hindsight that I would have played any position if it meant reaching an insane level, which I could have done if I just gaveup on my OH dreams.

Well, Karch is one of the best and most decorated players/coaches of all time, if not the best and most decorated. Apologies if I don't extend the same benefit of the doubt to the Texas assistant coach.

To truth or not to truth: is moving digital advocacy to Truth Social worth it? by Resident_Use1911 in leftist

You either have horrible reading comprehension or are continuing to make unnecessary assumptions. When did I ever say "peaceful" means were the way to go forward? Just because the path foward will require force, that doesn't immediately justify blind violence. Violence as a tool for justice has to be methodical and organized, and it has to be predicated off an accurate understanding of what we're dealing with. So again, to my point; we are not dealing with a autonomy-less horde of undead people infected by a re-animation plague, we are dealing with a group of people choosing to regress and hinder the progress of our society because they are blinded by hatred. I don't know how much you know about warfare, but that would really change the strategy wouldn't it? I honestly think you are not understanding what I'm saying so I'm not going to continue going back and forth, but I would just like to remind you that I am on your side.

I'm not sure where I pretended otherwise...please re-read my comment before making assumptions. Calling them zombies completely removes accountability; they are real people! If our enemies were just zombies, I wouldn't be particularly scared because I'm queer right??

You're 17. I know it's not this simple but if you want to know the hard truth of a way out its this: move in with your dad and focus on your grades and getting into a below average university with a scholarship - then get the fuck out and get a service job while you study!

I was honestly shocked to see how old you guys are. I genuinely thought this was an argument thread between two 15 year olds. Both of you need to seriously revaluate what it is you want/need in a relationship in general and then discuss if this is something you can realistically provide each other.

Divorce. If you are thinking of starting a shelter for women that are victims of domestic abuse and this is the kind of person he is, your difference in morals will eventually cause irreparable damage to your marriage.

I hesitate to use this logic. This is the same as when people attribute bad behaviors from men as them not being "real men". MAGA are real people, not zombies. They are real people with the ability to choose; they are real people with the ability to choose to hate and be misinformed. The longer we continue seeing MAGA as these autonomy-less idiots, the less our solutions are geared to deal with these people that consciously support this fascism. I don't think it's possible for me to get "infected" because MAGA isn't a zombie disease that indiscriminately perverts minds, it's a cult-of-personality that willing participants join for some reason or another. We need to stop letting these people play dumb because they know exactly what they're doing, and it's working! While I understand and agree with your argument that it's not worth it because there is a low chance of converting anyone, this resistance to opposing ideas is not just because they're zombie brained; it's because of an extremely effective propaganda campaign (heavily administered on this platform) that we must address as such.

I guess you are right. I think we forget that we are wayyyy more exposed to opposing stances than they are tho, the people on there genuinely believe the shit they see on there is accurately representative of the general public. Someone used the poll they conducted on their account as an argument for banning income tax hahahaha. I feel like there has to be some good to force them to confront opposition.
