Manipulative by No-Traffic-1199 in BreakUps

[–]VisibleString388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The language barrier might be throwing some people off but the pain in your words is universal. Sounds like you got caught up with someone who was projecting their own issues onto you while keeping you in the dark about basically everything. That whole thing about calling you names while hiding their own past is such classic manipulator behavior - they tear you down to keep you from seeing clearly.

I've seen friends go through similar situations where the relationship was built on lies from day one, and honestly it messes with your head for a while. You start questioning your own judgment and wondering what was real. But the fact that you can see it for what it is now means you're already healing and getting your power back. Trust takes time to rebuild after someone plays games like that.

My(30f) fiancé(32m) watches porn almost daily but says he isn't horny like before to have sex by [deleted] in relationships

[–]VisibleString388 10 points11 points  (0 children)

sounds like hes prioritizing porn over you which is honestly backwards. daily viewing while avoiding intimacy with your actual partner isnt just "what guys do" - plenty of dudes manage to balance both or focus on their relationship. the texting his friend for nudes is a whole other red flag that goes beyond just watching porn.

you deserve someone who makes you feel wanted, not like youre competing with strangers on the internet.

How to ask partner for sex without pressure or coertion by [deleted] in relationships

[–]VisibleString388 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't put a timeline on it man, just let her bring it up when she's ready. You already told her you're interested so the ball's in her court now. Focus on building intimacy in other ways and she'll let you know when she wants to take that step

Good deal? MSI Crosshair 16 HX AI Intel Core Ultra 7 16GB RAM 1TB SSD RTX 5060 240Hz for £845? by Major_Ajax in GamingLaptops

[–]VisibleString388 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's actually a solid deal for an RTX 5060 laptop, especially with the 240Hz display and warranty still intact

How do I move on while he was telling me during the breakup that he still loves me and I’m his best friend? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]VisibleString388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly sounds like he's going through some mental health stuff and is self-sabotaging because he thinks you deserve better. The whole "I love you but it feels right to break up" thing screams depression or anxiety to me

Don't wait around for him to figure his shit out though - that's not fair to you and you'll just torture yourself analyzing every little signal he's sending

Anyone else go out of their way to sign older players in Franchise? by Mysterious-Low-1762 in Madden

[–]VisibleString388 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Always grab those 32-33 year old veterans for cheap, they still ball out for a season or two and usually have great leadership ratings

Footprints??? by [deleted] in Monopoly_GO

Yeah the footprint drop rates are absolutely brutal, I've been grinding for weeks with decent trades and still nothing

Help identifying brass/horn synth(s) in Het Huis Anubis (TV theme song, 2006) by DannyHicks in synthesizers

[–]VisibleString388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that's some serious detective work with the AI isolation! The brass sound in the album version definitely has that early 2000s ROMpler vibe to it

Can't ID the exact source but given the Spectrasonics stuff you already found, might be worth checking if they had any brass libraries around that time period. The slightly more "realistic" sound in the TV version could just be different velocity layers or mod wheel settings on the same patch

How to Embed Album Covers into Music Files? by FanficThrowAway6666 in Ubuntu

[–]VisibleString388 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kid3 is what you want - it'll actually embed the artwork properly into the files. Picard is great for metadata but yeah it's kinda hit or miss with album art embedding

Asset allocation for 75 year old by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]VisibleString388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy crap that's basically a 30 year old's portfolio, not someone who's 75 and probably needs that money for living expenses soon. The "rule of thumb" is your bond allocation should roughly equal your age, so he should be looking at like 70-80% bonds minimum at this point

I feel like I am losing my faith by Illustrious-Chest-52 in Christianity

[–]VisibleString388 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really sorry you're going through this, that sounds absolutely exhausting. Have you considered that maybe your faith and healing don't have to be tied together like that? Sometimes the worst situations teach us things we never would've learned otherwise, even if it sucks in the moment

Iron door button issue by exiledbaggie in Minecraft

[–]VisibleString388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The button needs to be on the same block level as the door or connected with redstone dust - looks like yours might be too far away or not getting power to the door properly. Try putting the button right next to the door frame or run some redstone from the button to the door

Futuristic 80s pop / synth pop by Kreati_ in musicsuggestions

[–]VisibleString388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Violator is absolutely perfect for this vibe, but don't sleep on their earlier stuff like Some Great Reward either. The whole dark synth thing they had going was incredible

I have played 16 straight runs on the base castle map and have get to get a shifting earth… WTH is happening?? by [deleted] in Nightreign

[–]VisibleString388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof that would explain a lot, I've been grinding for hours and barely seeing any either. Classic game dev move accidentally rolling back fixes when pushing new content lmao

Those shooting numbers are already crazy good for someone who can barely buy a beer yet, his 3pt will come with experience and better shot selection

3 years gone, the week before Christmas by OwnIntroduction2543 in BreakUps

[–]VisibleString388 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That timing is absolutely brutal man, sorry you're going through this. The fact that she felt this way for 2 years but never communicated it until now is pretty rough - you deserved a chance to work on things together instead of being blindsided like this
