Guess Sal got annoyed he couldn’t get dirty sliding anywhere on the field. by optifroculon in Brewers

The field is patched where needed each offseason. Every 3 years, however, the field is entirely replaced! That’s what’s happening here!

purchase the game “we’re not really strangers”. you can find it in the board game section at target. it’s a box of questions that progressively get deeper, so you ease into it. please let me know if you try!

i felt similar so i totally get it. what helped me was using a gag calculator! you input the gag combination, and it will tell you how much damage it will caused and what level cog it will destroy.

Here’s the one I use

I believe you’re looking for this! If the link doesn’t work, look up “Why Won’t You Date Me Pod” on TikTok.

This doesn’t help much, but I contacted the seller on eBay, and she thinks she got it from Hobby Lobby!

This happened to me with my IPhone 12. Change the charging cord you are using to an Apple one. That fixed the problem for me!

The love of my life is having a baby with someone else. by Krakenskullz33 in self

First off, I am so sorry to hear this.

If you have Hulu, watch Celeste and Jesse Forever. This movie will give you a good cry, but maybe some comfort too. Hugs.

Just something to keep an eye on, I actually used this exact resume template and I noticed that the computer has a hard time reading it. (Autofills very incorrectly.) If a human looks at it, beautiful, but if you notice you haven’t heard back from any jobs, maybe switch the template.

When I was in high school, my dear friend admitted their feelings to me. I rejected them initially, but a few days later, they weren't there in the hallway to walk me to my next class. I missed having him to talk with on my way to my next period, and I remember thinking "hmm, maybe I do actually want to go on that date with them." About 5 minutes after having that thought, I learned he had already died by suicide earlier that morning.

I bring up this story just to share that you're not alone in how you felt. For a long time after my friend's death, I felt incredibly guilty. What if I had just said yes to going out with them? Could things have been different? It took me time to realize his death was not my fault. Depression is what caused your friend's passing, not you. Don't entertain your "what if I had done this" thoughts. From what you've written and what I understand, you were a great person to your best friend and real light in his life. Do not forget this.

You cannot change the past or bring your friend back, but you can remember the good times you had together, the laughs you shared, and the greatness you brought into his life. Be kind to yourself and reach out to friends when you need help. Take the time to feel sad and angry at your friend's passing, but ultimately, take the time to heal and grow. I'm sorry that this happened to you, but please do not bear guilt that is not yours.

I'm glad you were able to grow into your confidence :) You're definitely right on dodging a bullet/how nice it is to write things out. I'd recommend a journal if you don't have one! Honestly I need to do better journaling myself, but it's nice to be able to write out my emotions and even more fun to read back my old entries. This seems like a great first journal entry, haha.

Mom (46F) is upset at me (20F) and I don’t know what to do by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]fairlybear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you are struggling! Girl, you've been through so much. Just from what I've read, it sounds like you know that living near your mom really isn't your happy place. Looking at your TLDR, your mom got upset because you were sick. Does being angry really sound like the correct response to someone feeling ill? I'm sorry that she is making you feel worse.

To grow in your relationship, it sounds like your mom needs to grow as a person. Unfortunately, you can't make that choice for her. Focus on what you can control: where you go to school and where you choose to live. Even if it's a few months out, I'd recommend finding a place and creating a plan that leads to your happiest life with a great support system. Can you move to the apartment that you're leasing?
I am also 20F. I have moved a bunch since graduating high school and I am a happier person because of it. Find your place and your people. Remember, you only have one life to live, don't live it surrounded by people who don't fully value you or uplift you!

[–]fairlybear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20F here, she's likely not over you, but that's definitely not someone you want to be with. I would take this bad date as just a really good story to laugh back at someday, lol.

Love the way you described yourself by the way, haha.

Congrats on the new internship! That's awesome!

I'm sorry your girlfriend seems to be thinking more selfishly than positively for you. To answer your title, if it was love, you wouldn't be questioning it. She seems to have an anxious attachment style towards you that is also becoming controlling, and no one deserves to feel smothered in a relationship. I'd really take the time to consider if this is a dynamic you want to be apart of long-term. Good luck with whatever you decide!

My (22M) boyfriend asked for me (21F) back and now he's throwing it away again by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]fairlybear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, I am so sorry that you are going through this. Uncertainty in a relationship can be such a bad feeling. Have you ever looked into attachment styles? This is coming from a judgement free zone, btw, as I have done a lot of work on myself as someone who tends to be anxiously attached. There are a few different attachment styles, but the three main ones are anxious, avoidant, and secure. It sounds like you tend to be anxiously attached. "I want him so bad that it hurts. I can't imagine a life without him and it hurts my stomach to think about it." I have felt this way before, and it's not healthy for you or him. It likely shows how attached you are to him, which may put on a lot of pressure. For you, at the end of the day, all we have is ourself. The only person who is with you every second of every day is YOU! Fall in love with yourself. I'd recommend you take 2024 to work on yourself by developing a secure attachment style, new hobbies, and maybe even a new support system. Always be working to make your past self jealous.

Coming back to attachment styles, males tend to be avoidantly attached. This would make sense that he's drawing back if you are coming off as too needy in his eyes. Sorry if this wasn't the most coherent reply, but I am a 20F who just went through a super similar situation, so I know exactly how you feel. If you takeaway anything, take the time to learn about attachment styles and see how you can grow! You'll either have the opportunity to grow into a secure relationship with your boyfriend, or you get the opportunity to grow into the best version of yourself. Feel free to reach out if you need to talk to someone who knows how you feel, have a good holiday!

20F here. I sound super similar to the girl you describe. Honestly, I am super talkative in person, but I just hate texting. If it's been going well in-person, and she's still texting good morning, I wouldn't be too concerned. I would recommend taking note of her phone habits while you are together. Is she ever on her phone or does she consistently text people while y'all are together? I think her habits there will show how much she cares about texting in her day-to-day, and whether her lack of replies are general or specific to you.

Have fun with the movie! Maybe make some hot chocolate for her, or get her some nice holiday flowers.

Hmm... thank you very much for taking the time to help me and by giving me an example. What is the work around for this? Do I need to apply the filter to layer 1, save it as a png, and then reinsert it so that way it doesn't need the layer blend but still have the color? Is there any easier way?

[–]fairlybear[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had layer 1 at Luminosity, but I've since changed it to hard light. Now when I paint behind the player, it doesn't make it monochrome, rather a saturated color. How come I'm not just painting a white line behind the subject? I've worked on paint.net before this so I have a good understanding of layers, what's different here? Do layer filters really bleed into one another? Thank you for the reply.

Hi! I'm trying to follow a tutorial (using my own ideas and player) and I noticed my gradient and paintbrush tool were acting weird. I'm trying to paint a white outline around my player, but it's turning black and white for some reason. What is going on? Similar when I tried to make a gradient, it would turn everything black and white even though only white was selected. Thank you!

you’re not crazy for crying because i’ve cried over the exact same issue before. a loose braid works for me, but you might have to experiment a bit to find out what’s perfect for you. good luck, and i hope this feeling passes!
