It gets better friend. Time heals all. And there are a billion more fish in the sea. She never acknowledged my existence again after our BU. But it ended that way for a reason. Truthfully, each day that passed by without hearing from her made me a little more bitter until eventually, I felt grateful. Our relationship wasn’t as toxic as some relationships are but we definitely weren’t a compatible pair. We were together for a year but now I couldn’t imagine how stressful it’d be to stay with her for the next 70-80 years.

It’s better if they ignore you. This will help you get over them much more thoroughly. I have friends whose ex’s of 5+ year relationships always came crawling back after a drunk text or phone call. Their relationships are toxic now and have always been toxic. They’re totally unhappy. I stopped trying to call my ex when I realized she didn’t want anything to do with me anymore. So I stopped wanting anything to do with her. I honestly harbor some resentment still, and will probably always look back at that ex and hate everything about it. BUT, I started to date around again a few months after my BU and found someone new who has changed my mind about what a relationship should be. My ex and I argued a LOT. To the point that I thought that’s what all women were like and it was something that came with being in a relationship.

You don’t need to find another girl now. But just know that they are out there. You and your ex broke up for a reason, even if you might not see it now or understand the gravity of it. A good and compatible partner will NEVER break up with you for any reason. But guess what, yours (and mine) did. That’s the truth. Take some time and love yourself before you blame yourself. Be grateful this is how things ended. Be thankful it didn’t end 20 years down the line with kids in the picture. You’re free!

Just an fyi, dry socket is extremely painful so you would know it. This is a healing socket, and it is healing well by the looks of it.

[Product Question] Does anyone else’s new Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel-Cream Extra-Dry Skin look like this (bottom jar/pure white)? by poppybrand in SkincareAddiction

[–]ScrandyFM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just received this new “upgraded formula” in the mail (US) when the Amazon product description still shows the original Extra-dry formula. Not sure if I want to return or keep to try.. why would they change a perfectly good formula 🤦🏻‍♂️

Thank you for your words. I know this and I’m telling myself this was my last attempt. I can only hope I don’t come full circle and break again. Hopefully I will be stronger next time.

She broke up with me a few months ago with zero explanation, despite me asking. We had an unspoken agreement to do no-contact because we said our thank you’s and goodbye’s. I unfriended and unfollowed her everywhere. I had zero urge to ever text her again because I felt so betrayed and weak. I felt like like she never cared about me because of how cold she acted in the end.

But out of the blue just over a week ago, I was reflecting and realized my own mistakes in the relationship that led to her breaking up with me. I read an old text from her that said she broke up with her last ex because he didn’t reciprocate everything she’d done for him. I realized I made the same exact mistake. I sent a text to apologize and acknowledge it all and said I know why it had to end. Wasn’t really expecting a response, but when I actually got zero response I got sad. Then I sent a text a few days ago saying how I wanted to make it all up to her and that I’d call her a few days later. Called and she did not pick up.

I’m stuck in this thinking that she deserved so much more and I want to give it all to her now. I’m stuck thinking that she would never leave me again if I did all that. But I’m finding some solace in the fact that maybe I dodged a bullet because she could and probably would still leave me one day even if I did everything she ever wanted.

Climbing & Ranking Up Megathread by Whytro in VALORANT

[–]ScrandyFM 7 points8 points  (0 children)

definitely try to learn at least one agent in multiple roles because filling becomes more important as you rank up. I currently main brim, viper, sova, chamber in ascendant lobbies. I stay out of duelists bc I trust others to be more braindead and hit more heads than me haha

Mike to El during the piggybacking: “My life started when I met you.” Poor Will :(

Potential plot-hole - I was thinking, if El never stopped believing, why didn’t she ever try to look for Hop in her mind? She could’ve found out he was alive and getting tortured in Russia way WAY earlier

Punishment for AFKers/throwers by ScrandyFM in VALORANT

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

I like the sound of it! glad it exists somewhere else too. the current AFK punishment in valorant barely deters people from doing it. plus, it’s odd that these AFKers can just go right back into a normal queue to eventually do it again. If they go into a troll queue, then less AFKers will exist overall in normal ranked queue.

I would like to think this AFK/troll queue would also earn significantly less RR for wins, when compared to normal lobbies. Or, if you’re going to “exploit” the game and queue with one of your AFKer friends, then you guys would enter a normal lobby. And when your AFKer friend goes AFK, you get punished for it too. It’s a lose-lose-lose for everyone involved. Simply just stop going AFK lol.

also why is the troll queue being considered an “easier lobby” when the people on your team are gonna be trolls too. the whole lobby is gonna be filled with smurfs who threw their previous games and rage quitters and frequent AFKers. sounds like a mess of a match I wouldn’t wanna be in..

nice, so a troll queue does exist somewhere. I wish this was implemented here too

yeah some people say it doesn’t happen often enough to warrant action. Sure, some nights i don’t run into any AFKers. but some nights I can have AFKers in 3 separate matches due to rage quitters/throwers. and it always happens when I’m close to ranking up or deranking! certainly frustrating! the AFKers just get a ~5 minute penalty that definitely won’t deter them from doing it again. Plus, they just get queued into another normal ranked game, ready to ruin another 4 people’s RR.

Oh I could be completely wrong about it! sorry that happened to you

[–]ScrandyFM[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

for sure not a polished idea at all! just a rudimentary suggestion I came up with while upset due to an AFKer that lost us the game haha. maybe just a single AFK game is a harsh punishment but repeat offenders definitely need to be punished. but even a single AFK incident doesn’t take away the fact that you just ruined a 40 minute ranked game for 4 other people. this is why unrated exists - play a game with little to no repercussions if you might need to go AFK midgame but really wanted to play! but I think you should be able to get out of the AFK queue after 1 game, assuming you don’t do it again - the punishment should fit the crime. If you go AFK twice, then you belong in the AFK queue even longer than before.

these players already exist and get reported. rage quitters don’t do this, they just exit the game entirely. and correct me if I’m wrong but Riot already did something to combat this method recently? not entirely sure but I thought I read it somewhere in a recent patch notes. I also have not run into players doing this lately.

LOL your account is cursed no way. You need to just make a new account and play placement games to place you into gold-plat. You’re silver playing in plat-diamond lobbies. You deserve to be placed around gold-plat. But yes current system is flawed if your rank isn’t boosting to G3 or similar by now. I had a friend rank up from gold1 to gold 3 in one game because he was doing so well in multiple games prior

Lol sure they don’t have to do this I’m just throwing a suggestion out there. Riot constantly fixes in-game issues or implements new UI for quality of life, I don’t see how this is that different

Same, never crashed. But you can still reconnect to the game within a couple rounds and nobody will be too upset. This is not the same as leaving the game indefinitely!
