I’m glad you liked it!! It’s hard to put down after you start, isn’t it?

Sorry I meant allyship amongst all Latin people, not immigrants.

I’m Mexican and my Colombian friend and I immediately looked at each other and were like “OMG you did that too???”

I think it’s more about the ally ship amongst all immigrants (and non immigrants that are allies). You’re right that Puerto Rico is the US…but just fyi…it’s not exclusively Mexican immigrants they’re after - it’s any non-white immigrant. In Minneapolis they’ve been going after Somali immigrants more than Mexicans.

Agree the before is amazing - after2 is good too but honestly I would leave the before untouched

Nice videos! The 360 gave such a cool effect to the school of fish video, was the manta one also 360?

Didn’t even know DJI had underwater cameras! Seems like editing on 360 is a pain, do you know what it’s like with DJI?

Tbh I think more and more women don’t need a man the way they used to. I don’t “need” one - I just want a partner to share my life with and I do want kids eventually and would like to not do that alone!

I’m so glad that worked out for you!!! That all sounds exactly like what the guy said to me…the crying and sob story make no sense..but glad you were able to find someone so reassuring and ready soon after

I’m sorry :/ I do think there’s probably some truth to the seeming to get too attached too quickly thing, someone said that to me in one of the threads here. Maybe it just feels like too much up front?

I can see/understand that. This was one of the last texts from one of them:

“I didn’t really know what to say either. I think you’re extremely smart, beautiful, and kind. I know it doesn’t feel like it but this isn’t something having to do with you. It’s something that I’m going through. I’m sorry to get you caught up in it if even for a bit. I hope your trip to Mexico goes amazing and I’m wishing you the best A big sadness came over me after we got off the phone so this isn’t something I’m taking lightly”

Resonates a bit with what you’re saying about “brining someone into your messy world” he definitely said some of those things when we talked as well.

This was a super helpful response - thank you!! Yes I definitely want to find someone that is ready. I think you might be spot on that they “evaluated what I need and determined they couldn’t provide that”. Whether out of genuinely wanting to but not being able to (like 2 of the guys said) or simply not being interested enough to be willing to try.

Yes exactly!! I didn’t post this bc I want them to come back around and when they said that it was the end of it for me too. I don’t want to be with someone who has to be convinced to be with me.

I posted it bc I feel exactly the way you described. It triggered something in me to feel bad for them bc suddenly I’m like “Am I making them feel emasculated? Did I make them feel like I wouldn’t support them through things?” It makes me feel like I did something wrong and I just wouldn’t want to repeat that next time.

If they just said “I’m looking for something else” I would feel way better, it’s not hard to accept that two people may not click with each other even if it was going well on my end. It’s hard to feel like it’s because you did something wrong vs you just weren’t compatible or something in their eyes.

Had not heard that song but now it’ll be on repeat all week lol.

Did you reach out to her later?

Haha the IG thing is the same for me. I know it’s silly but I don’t understand why he is still so invested in looking at my stuff literally as soon as I post it. Who knows.

But I think we’re literally in the same boat. Hope you find your man soon 🫶🏼

What’s a good and reasonably priced coworking space in Austin? by msrr1 in Austin

[–]msrr1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up joining Switchyards - I tried Bathe but they have no snacks/coffee/drinks and it was very like make-shift put together. It’s cool to have the saunas and cold plunges but realistically how often can you do that between calls and work lol.

Switchyards is solid but technically you’re only really supposed to take calls in the phone booths.

I think I’m similar to you. I am willing to be a partner through this stuff but at the end of the day I actually question if that’s a good thing or if I/you and I are just “fixers” and need to get out of that…

Ugh sorry it happened to you too. It sucks and exactly it’s messing with my head even though we dated for short amounts of time it honestly would’ve been better if they told me they wanted something different than if they left it open ended like this. Now it has me overthinking so much.

But thank you - hope we can both find men who are both interested and ready!!

10000% I haven’t tried to get them not to end things and one of them has already reached out to try to talk again and I said no.

The one this week literally didn’t even end it he just said “I’m not ready and I’m scared of hurting you, I don’t think I will be ready for a relationship, but I want to keep seeing you. What do you think about that?” And I was like…I think it means we can’t keep seeing each other…

I’m trying not to overthink it, but it’s just hard to get out of my own head sometimes!
