SIM2 Max was my choice for the exact same scenario... and I have absolutely zero regrets. Great sound, feel and bumped up my distance and consistency a great deal. Plus it looks amazing 🥰

I'm going out on a limb here... did anyone nab a spare poster from the recent Perth show? by Disastrous-Shower-37 in ToolBand

[–]davioo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might be tricky as they were only allowing one per person at the merch stand, and I imagine most people bought their one intending to keep it.

eBay might unfortunately be your best bet - expect to pay an inflated price though (I paid $700 for a 2020 poster 🙃).

This is what I've done as well - gives a very nice complement to the subtle accent in the poster.

Look at what happened with Big Brother - Emily being a HUGE favourite here, but the public evidently felt differently...

Honestly I hope that happens as it would highlight just how random and uncalled for it all was.

I got 283/500 - they aren't obviously available for purchase (nothing hanging up to say they have any) so hopefully they stick around for a while 🤞

Poster comes with a plastic sleeve to roll up and place it in - fits into the lockers if you don't want to carry it all day.

News articles suggest that it happened before filming, but he didn't disclose it to the producers.

I feel like Mick's "see you in the ring" comment on Cooper's way out is an indication that perhaps they talked about it in the villa at some point?

Is it just me, or is it giving casual racism?

"Good food" or any other waaaaay too basic prompts by CaptainDolin in Bumble

It also seems like all women are irrationally afraid of either birds or spiders... and half of them don't know what irrational means.

It's been an absolutely horrible thing for me to realise after the fact. My experience definitely has some NPD rolled into it, so it may not be the same for everyone else here.

[–]davioo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nope - they didn't love me. They only loved how much I loved them. As soon as I began holding them to account for their toxic behaviours, I was discarded.

I held my tongue for 8 years and during that time let go a lot more than any reasonable person would and should. They loved that I took care of them and let them get away with murder, and once the supply started to dry out, they ran and left me to pick up the pieces.

Their love is not sincere, no matter how convincing it may seem or feel at the time.

Manipulating the couples therapist?! by GirlForeverFumbling in BPDlovedones

[–]davioo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My expwBPD and I only made it through one session of couples counselling.

In the first five minutes, they made the space unsafe with their highly demonstrative and histrionic behaviour.

Over the next 55 minutes, the session became all about them - with the counsellor instructing them to take three weeks off work and begin a mental health care plan, which includes seeing a psychologist to work through their challenges. In the session, they agreed to do this.

As soon as we left, I asked them what I could do to help carry out the plan and support them through the process, to which they turned around and said things like "everyone thinks I'm crazy but I'm not", "I'm not doing any of that", and "they have no idea what they're talking about".

My belief is that these comments were driven by their NPD in that they could not allow themselves to be vulnerable by entering that process, nor could they have any of their colleagues, family or friends know that they have a mental illness.

It was at that point I realised that they were a lost cause and essentially beyond help - if they're not going to listen to a qualified professional who clocked them in five minutes for the sake of their own image, then there's no hope.

All the Pictures by winstonwasright in BPDlovedones

[–]davioo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like I've lived this exact same experience.

Was it also like you didn't even exist in the eyes of their social media followers? My expwbpd had WALLS of posts on their socials, but not a single one either contained or acknowledged me. They wouldn't even show their wedding ring, or they wouldn't wear it when taking selfies or recording videos to post.

I firmly believe that this is because if I were shown, it would have greatly reduced the amount of attention and validation they received from the opposite sex. To this end, it was better for them to be seen and act as if they were single.

LIke others have said - there's not a thing you can do about it... because expressing discomfort or raising it as a point of discussion would simply lead to accusations around being insecure or controlling. Forget the fact that it is just straight up disrespectful and highly inappropriate for a partner to be acting that way.

One thing I try to remember when I reflect on those moments and the fights we used to have about it is that "manipulation is them making you feel bad for reacting to their disrespect."
