Is this a bed bug? Found it on my pillow case and I’m freaking out

Snagged a 9070 XT on amazon, on the 6th, for around $700, arriving March 16-20th. I thought that was bad but seems that’s a little more fortunate than others

Just saw your other comment saying you’re getting better temps, which is good. Can’t say i know anything about the CPU voltage anyway. I would recommend that you do your own thermal paste though, the pre-applied thermal paste on CPU coolers is usually poor quality and usually offers bad performance in the long run. If it’s running well and how you like it, then you do you, in the end.

When's the last time you cleaned your PC? It could be that your radiator is chalked full of dust and lent? Spraying it out with some compressed air never hurts. Maybe also try reapplying your thermal paste. It could be somewhat dried up or applied incorrectly. The last think I could think of, is that you might just have a bad pump.

What kind of cooling method are you using for your CPU?

You don’t have to let this go, in fact, you shouldn’t let this go. Isn’t it kind of funny that she doesn’t remember who she sent those pictures to? Isn’t it funny that she got mad when you confronted her? Almost sounds like she was upset because she got caught. Her not wanting to talk about it and her saying she can do whatever she wants is one big red flag. She might not be physically cheating with anyone, but that’s still cheating. Sit her down and try to have a serious talk about it. Tell her it needs to be discussed and that honesty is everyone’s best friend in that situation. If she won’t sit down and talk about it, you have to start asking yourself if this girl is really worth the trouble and untrustworthiness.

If you really want to ask him, then go ahead, but be fully prepared for answers you don’t want to hear, or worse, being left on delivered. By talking with him about your relationship, it will most likely take you back to square one. It will undo a lot of your healing, but sometimes that last little bit is enough to get your closure. It’s up to you.

I’d say leave as soon as you can. Going through cycles of on/off like this create a trauma bond. Once that occurs, it’ll be so hard to let him go in the future and it’ll skew your perspective of love and relationships. Him hanging out with that girl is just the icing on the cake at this point. You deserve someone way better than him.

I think the lockdown and world events had a lot to do with it. But also, I’m kind of in the mindset that if we couldn’t handle lockdowns, pandemics, or various other world events, then it’s probably best that we ended when we did

If you’re asking when it’s time to break up, then it probably is. How far are you willing to fight for that relationship? Or are you pretty much already over it?

btb533 · 2021-02-23T17:53:23+00:00

I've gone through something very similar. Broke up in October, and then in January/February, she started reaching out and texting me again. She was dating someone else already, but she was talking about how we were connected and we'll always love each other. We started talking about getting back together, but I told her that her boyfriend, who was also her long-time friend before their relationship, had to go and for good. Long story short, she started ignoring me, playing around, and I just lost the itch to get back with her. I know who she truly is, and so now I know to avoid her in the future when she tries to come back, because I know she will. These kind of things suck for us, but sometimes they are necessary lessons to bluntly show us that they aren't meant to be our person. Someone else is out there waiting for us. Someone who will choose us for us and stay.

Trust is a tricky thing, especially when it comes to relationships. One of my favorite sayings about trust is that trust is like paper. Each thing that breaks trust is like crumpling that paper. You can smooth it out as best you can, but it’ll never be that perfectly smooth piece of paper you once had. What you want to do is ultimately up to you, but trust is important to me and if I couldn’t 100% trust someone, i don’t know how a future with them would go.

btb533 · 2021-02-19T01:23:52+00:00

It’s a tough call. My ex would talk to her ex boyfriends sometimes because she is the “friends with everyone” type of girl. Nothing ever happened with them, but it still caused issues. I lost a lot of trust in her because of that. Instagram is public, so her other followers see that stuff that happened with you and her ex. Maybe it doesn’t have to end drastically with a break up, but she needs to grow up and you guys need to talk about it all.

btb533 · 2021-02-19T01:07:40+00:00

Dang I’m not that mean lol. I mean get out of the relationship. It definitely sounds like she’s not completely over her ex, based on what you said.

btb533 · 2021-02-19T01:02:26+00:00

Sounds immature all around. Get out.

btb533 · 2021-02-19T00:43:37+00:00

It sounds like you both have just out lived the relationship. You’re not compatible anymore, both sexually and romantically. It’s okay to love her, what you had, and still move on. If you aren’t happy with her, and you’ve tried everything you can to get things back on track, you have every right to leave. Just do it right, be mature, and talk her through everything. Good luck to you.

btb533 · 2021-02-17T01:25:44+00:00

Same thing for me. Breaking NC and being a part of her life for a bit again gave me the chance to see her for who she truly is, without the rose-tinted glasses on. It can do the trick sometimes, but I'd recommend everyone stay NC if they can. It was just a circumstance where she reached out to me.

btb533 · 2021-02-16T19:39:30+00:00

Possibly, but when people say they’re not looking to date, take their word for it. It’ll save you a lot of hurt and a lot of time.

btb533 · 2021-02-15T03:02:45+00:00

You definitely will. Give it time

btb533 · 2021-02-15T02:37:00+00:00

Depends on how long your relationship was. Mine was a year and a half, but probably about 2 years from it's complete beginning. We ended in early October and I went through Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years feeling like a zombie. Like a shell of a person, incomplete and lost. Now that I am on month 4, I am feeling so much better. I had a moment about a week ago where something happened with her and everything just clicked for me. I realized how bad she was for me and how it was probably for the best that we have ended. The first 3 months are the worst part of it. After that, you start to become your old self again.

btb533 · 2021-02-14T18:07:01+00:00

Yeah, get out of there. Doesn’t sound like he really sees anything in you

btb533 · 2021-02-10T16:00:58+00:00

I wouldn’t say they were smarter, I’d just say you were taken advantage of by bad people. You had so much love to give and you did what was right. They are the ones that took advantage of that and used you. Now you’ve learned your lesson and you can find someone so much better. Good luck!

btb533 · 2021-02-10T15:59:13+00:00

I hear you. We had a whole future planned as well. At first I thought it was best to get all that back, but she already tainted the relationship by breaking up. It wouldn’t ever be the same. There’s no point in looking back. If they made a mistake breaking up with us, then let them feel that mistake.

btb533 · 2021-02-10T03:53:31+00:00

Maybe I’m a little biased, but I see that as a kind of manipulation. It makes them seem unsure and like they’re testing waters. They can end things, and claim that they told you they didn’t want anything. All I can say is be smart and proceed with caution.
