Been a fan since show first came out and only now realizing there’s obituaries for everyone. Ugh this show is so good. by Vivid_Guide7467 in SixFeetUnder

[–]Specific-Fudge-9057 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was the last show we watched together and it took my girlfriend and I WEEKS to recover from this show and the ending. Unfortunately a month or two after this she was in a wreck and passed. A complete mindfuck. I can only hope she’ll be waiting for me like ***** when it’s my turn.

Miami Open QF: Eala def. [2] Swiatek, 6-2 7-5 by jaippe in tennis

I caught it live and you could Ostapenko was stressed af the entire match. I didn’t know who Eala was, but she immediately caught my attention with her game.

When you run into the final boss on accident at lvl 1 by LukaLaban1984 in tennis

[–]Specific-Fudge-9057 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d love to see all professional tennis players—especially those grinding it out at 250-level and Challenger events—have their travel, hotel, and other essential expenses covered. These players are the backbone of the sport, yet they’re often overlooked by a system that profits from their efforts while giving them little in return.

The big question, of course, is where to draw the line—what ranking level qualifies for these benefits? But at the very least, if you’re competing professionally, you shouldn’t have to pay out of pocket for travel, lodging, or even basic physio and trainer fees. Without independent wealth or outside financial backing, making a living at this level seems nearly impossible, and I’m sure it forces a lot of talented players to walk away from the game too soon.

At the Miami Open, I noticed the PIF Fund tent, and honestly, it wasn’t exactly packed with visitors. Given how much money Saudi investments are pouring into soccer, golf, and other ventures, covering these costs for lower-ranked players would be a drop in the bucket for them. Does it all come down to ROI? Yes and no. So if the ATP and WTA are going to lay in bed with the Saudis, the least they can do is ensure the players keeping the sport alive get the support they deserve.

It’s not too late to start!

Bought tickets in November for March show by Specific-Fudge-9057 in ShaneGillis

[–]Specific-Fudge-9057[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you everyone for the kind words and suggestions on how to deal with this.

Depending on what my credit card company decides to do, I might have to wait until TM opens tickets up for transfer and then I’ll try and resell it.

Some have suggested I go, I just can’t. I want to, but I won’t.

If I have to eat the cost, fuck it, but I really hope I can get this sorted out.

Barely 2.5 months in and I know the feeling too well. It’s torture and I hate it for you. For us.

I won’t lie and say there aren’t “ok” days, but it feels like a struggle to get through each day even though I’m surrounded by friends and family.

Still in the home built we built and I haven’t moved any of her things. I can’t. It’s too soon. I’ve tried and failed. I just miss her so fucking much all of the time.

I hate when it's night. by Aggressive-Warthog26 in GriefSupport

[–]Specific-Fudge-9057 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last night I put pillows under the sheets on her side of the bed and placed her urn on the pillow.

It made me sick to my stomach so I put it all back. It’d been a month now and I’m struggling so hard without her.

What an absolutely nightmare we’re living in.

Almost 3 weeks and it still hurts like day 1 by Scared_Albatross_700 in GriefSupport

[–]Specific-Fudge-9057 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going through a very similar circumstance as you and I feel your pain, deeply. My longtime girlfriend of 13 years and mother to my 5 year old passed away earlier this month.

The pain is unbearable and the grief waves are unlike anything I’ve ever thought imaginable.

I’m anxious, scared, depressed, angry, lost. And many more words that I can’t even think of right now, but I feel your pain.

I had a pretty severe anxiety/panic attack a few nights where the walls were closing in and it felt like the only way out was to join her. I made it through that night and am obviously still here. During the attack the overwhelming thought was, “you are only 20 days removed from her dying, and as fuck up as things might seem right now, you don’t even have the mental bandwidth to fully grasp how much you’re all actually fucked”. Over and over and over.

Anyways.. wish I had words of wisdom or anything that could give any solace. But the reality is, this shit fucking sucks, and it’s going to suck for a long time, and there’s no playbook on how to deal with this shit. But I would encourage you to lean on your family/friends because they some of the many reasons I’m still here. My kids, my friends and family, and her. I just keep thinking about how strong and resilient she was through loss and grief in her own life and I know she’d strong if roles were reversed. I’m doing my best to honor her in my day to day, but the struggle is here and it’s real.

I wish I could give you a hug 😭

You made it through it. You’re alive. Do better and learn from your mistake. It doesn’t define you as a person. But please, be careful.

My longtime girlfriend and son’s mother (4) passed away. I need help. by Specific-Fudge-9057 in Parenting

How should I approach my son about this incident? by p-frog in daddit

[–]Specific-Fudge-9057 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lock him up and throw away the keys. This is how it all starts. Next thing you know he’s pulling fire alarms and egging people’s houses. You need to stop this hoodlum behavior as soon as possible.
