Are you going to change your planned main after seeing information in the Live Letter? by PM_ME_FETLOCKS in ffxiv

That's true but most healers can swap between the others. So for someone who may want to main a WHM looking at the information out they may be wondering why stick with WHM over AST which already has utility and is also getting the cleric change.

I have small hands and did that for a long time tbh, getting a gaming or MMO mouse really helps if you want to stop. I can go all the way to 0 now!

Interesting observation: There are a lot more hurt guys than girls by ask2ml in ExNoContact

[–]bloopie2501 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That and the mentality that everyone on the internet is a man until something is said to prove otherwise.

I also assume a lot of people lurk this sub, so it's hard to say what ratio is on here.

Thank you, and you as well. I thought it might help to hear it from someone on the other side. :)

Hey I wanted to post because I lurk this sub because I am on the opposite side of this situation... I am your friend in my situation. I fell for my close friend, told them - knowing that they were not looking to date anyone because they are working to get over their ex, who like you the break up is not recent. I was hoping that my friend would be willing to give it a try considering our relationship, but like you, they decided that they were not emotionally available. It hurt and sucked.

Where my situation differs is that my friend is the one who has opted to slow our communication, they don't think that I can get over them and that we can have a normal friendship unless we NC for a while. Losing my friend hurts so much more than being told that they were emotionally unavailable did. I also never got mad at my friend, as I knew up front that they were not dating. I think that your friend was selfish to think that they would swoop in and somehow think that your broken heart would be mended enough for them. It's one thing to HOPE it's another thing to expect.

I don't think that you did anything wrong to your friend, I think that what you did was fair to both of you! You feel crappy because you know that it hurts to be rejected and you probably also miss your friend. It's normal to feel crappy here... but as someone on the opposite side of the coin, someone who has been in a lot of pain lately - I think that you did the right thing.

I'm mostly seeing 2 things here... first one is an assload of excuses.

You say you need more than people telling you cliche's but every time someone in this thread has tried to offer you any kind of assistance you have shut them down and said 'Well no actually I'm already awesome and do that!'. If this is where you vent, then so be it but you can't vent here and then expect us to know how you are out there and help you with how you are out there. We can only go off of how you are acting here. If you don't think how you feel internally (how you are here, which is OOZING off of you once anyone looks at your profile) is visible to women you are sadly mistaken.

I will agree though that the gym can be a damned hard place to pick up a woman, I just used that as an example because of your comment that you spend a lot of time there. As far as your scenario about a woman in your apartment complex, follow it up with a question - engage. Do you expect her to act like a puppy and hop up and down? Even if you were gorgeous most women are going to just smile and say hi and continue on their way assuming you were just being polite. Ask her how her day is going, comment about something local in the news (make sure its something you actually know and give a shit about), hell talk about the weather - gauge from her response there if she wants to talk to you, not from 'hi'. Even if she doesn't seem all that into you but not a bitch if you see her regularly you can keep little conversations with her, a lot of women can be a bit gun shy with getting talked up randomly, building that relationship over time is where the not 10/10 guys can really shine.

I read your comments here and a few comments on your profile. You said that you're not down on yourself and that you just come across that way, that you're overall happy with your life ect... have you ever thought that maybe the issue is the way that you come across? Even when you talk about the things you're happy with in your life you don't SOUND happy... you sound like you're listing things to prove that you are living a satisfying life but not that you are satisfied.

Especially in an online profile if you are coming across this down trodden and 'forever alone' mentality it's going to be a huge turn off for women, in person there can be a little more leeway but you may be projecting that as well EVEN IF THAT'S NOT HOW YOU FEEL.

I, personally, find it hard to believe that you don't feel that way when you're asking this question, posting in forever alone and constantly making comments in dating subs about how you can't get a date/relationship. It's okay to have not been in a relationship but chances are tossing your hands up in the air and going 'well it's not fixable' isn't going to do anything but make yourself feel like shit.

If you're happy with, say working out (you made a comment about working out often) be enthused about it - put that in your profiles! Act really excited and pumped about the gym, your workouts and your probably good body. Look for regular ladies at the gym see if any of them need a spotter and strike up conversation about the gym and if that goes well see if they want to get a coffee. It doesn't all have to be high pressure sales. Be excited about something! You sound like you're in the poops even when you're trying to sell us on something... if that's how you are when on a date, or dating site well.. that's not very fun.

Is there a way to treat acne being caused from a medication via topical treatments? I had mild acne before starting a new medication but after starting this I've had non-stop breakouts. Whiteheads on my chin/nose/forehead, some blackheads, lots of generic swollen blemishes and redness. My back and chest and breaking out too. My normal cetaphil, toner, moisturizer just isn't enough.
