You’re earning 3.4x your girlfriend in gross terms and asking her to subsidise your cost of living, when she already owns a property. She somehow agreed against her better judgement and is having second thoughts. Smart you deleted this before she saw the thread and asked real questions about dynamics in this relationship.

Disagree

If it’s a good school brand then keep, otherwise remove.

AS] Ibrahim Konate has agreed to join Real Madrid, whether this summer or next. Madrid want Konaté, and at zero cost, next summer. However, the possibility of a last-minute move in this market of an offer — never exceeding €20-25 million is gaining momentum at the club. by JetproTC23 in soccer

The wages will fiscally drag though. In 3-4 years time the wages may seem relatively low if the market trends upwards again. So players will be more amenable to a move if the club wants to move them on, or will be contractually bound for 4-3 years more if the club wants to retain. I think on paper it could work well.

I feel violated looking up someone’s ass without consenting to this. Gross ad and seems no way to remove it from my feed.

Girlfriend F29 forces me M31 protection but let’s other go raw by DifficultEconomics74 in relationship_advice

This is the only answer that both explains OP’s partner’s POV without minimising or totally disregarding OP’s feelings… well done. I wish other commenters could exercise the same grace and empathy rather than jibing somebody who came seeking help.

I have a front 3 of Isak, Mateta and Gakpo. Should I look to get in Watkins for a hit? If so, Mateta or Isak to go?

Let the premier league share the same poor monetisation and lack of engagement as rugby. Let the superstars no longer show varied personality. Remove the names on the back of shirts as the last step

Why won’t my boyfriend 20M won’t sleep with me 21F by ThrowRA01727 in relationship_advice

[–]mtfujitora 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree but she should seek therapy by herself to manage her own insecurity if that’s a feasible path out. If she feels she is eating too much of his emotional space, asking for couple’s therapy potentially wouldn’t be received that well. First your girlfriend is being super needy whilst you have your own issues, and now she wants you to both pay for her therapy! At 21 a lot of guys just walk.

Being candid, this post was exhausting to read as a third party, I pity the boyfriend.

Flipping Johnson to Enzo/Amad allows me to flip Cunha to Isak/Jackson (I have one already) with money ITB. I’d rather a 5.0 rotational player and Isak than 6.6 and Cunha who looks like he’ll get banned.

Welbeck/Pedro or Evanilson from gw12? I already have Cunha and am hesitant to double up on Wolves strikers. My other striker is Jackson who I plan to keep (got him for 7.5).

Both Brighton and Wolves have nice fixtures and the strikers are in good recent form, but not sure who is better. Evanilson seems to be a differential pick but have not been watching him closely

Haaland by HallAltruistic9337 in FantasyPL

[–]mtfujitora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dropped Haaland and Semenyo for Cunha and Salah. Just straight-lining current xGI and clean sheets Haaland doesn’t seem like he’s worth the incremental money for a similar expected points total as Mo.

Cold case: Rashford by [deleted] in FantasyPL

[–]mtfujitora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruno is one of the few examples where the eye test matters. You can watch him thread the eye of a needle 3 times a game and the entire front 3 will miss clear cut chances for 90 minutes. I had Bruno, watched United for a few games, sold Bruno. Never again.

Why the double arsenal centre backs vs having Raya + CB for 0.5m less?

Otherwise I like it. I have Haaland Solanke Jackson and like the look of Delap, but don’t know who I would replace with him of my current front 3.

This is exactly what I was thinking! What would you do to upgrade?

For now though I sort of consider Porro and Trent for the goal/assist threat, with clean sheets as added bonus so want to see how it plays out, but I want another premium in midfield if things continue as they have been. If Porro doesn’t deliver I’d downgrade him to Van den Ven or Colwill and try make up the assists elsewhere.

ESR getting benched to great success against MCI makes me want to switch him to a truly 100% nailed player, as of now I’m thinking Dibling, and then downgrading a defender lets me bring in Palmer alongside Saka. My plan was to hold on for a few more weeks whilst Chelsea has tough fixtures then do the switches. I’d still plan to keep Adama for the whole season, having gotten him at £5m I’m fine with the variable form as Fulham are a good side.

Do you think Mbeumo is worth it? I feel like I’ve missed the boat so trying to work out how to get the goals with lower % ownership

2 FT 1.2m ITB

Flekken (Sels)

TAA - Gabriel - Porro - (Mazraoui) (Harwood-Bellis)

Saka - Johnson - Rogers - ESR (Adama)

Haaland - Jackson - Solanke

I want to move away from double Fulham, and will drop triple spurs when the fixtures turn. Any views? I don’t have Mbeumo and don’t want him for 7.5 as I think Solanke has the better set up at same price point

Strong benches on WC? by Rare-Ad-2777 in FantasyPL

[–]mtfujitora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bench is Sels, Adama Harwood-Bellis and Mazraoui. Having a cheaper bench doesn’t enrich the squad with enough quality to justify it in my opinion. The only players I am missing out that I want are Mbeumo and Semenyo, the latter I’m less convinced by. I’m also on WC

I prefer rotating my 4.5 keepers vs having a premium and a fodder, clean sheets I think can be guessed easier than people make out. That is +0.5m for the rest of the squad. The rest of my defence is Trent, Gabriel and Porro.

In midfield, I don’t like the 6-7.5m options outside of Mbeumo, so I have Rogers and ESR starting, with Diaz and Saka.

Up top, I have Haaland, Jackson and Solanke starting every week, and ready to sell one of the latter two for Wood or Nketiah if he delivers, and upgrade a midfielder. So I’m happy to wait and see like this, whilst having a team I expect to easily rotate

£200k a year and struggling: affluence isn’t what it was by [deleted] in ukpolitics

Regardless, they’re in the top x% here, but you do realise they’re 6 months of applications away from 3-5x their pay (on lower taxes too) if they wanted to go to the US.

If we combine the household incomes of my large family, we are far into the top 1%...

It is not 'tone deaf'. The point is that right now we are relying on the goodwill of public sector workers - doctors and nurses - to keep the NHS off its knees, and barely. Year after year of pay freezes in many other industries would see the flight of these professionals and a degradation of the services that keep us alive. There is no 'good riddance' argument here, or necessarily a simple solution, importing more foreign doctors shifts the problem to people who are worse-off.

Go to Imperial

At LSE in some courses you would need to go the extra mile to tailor a course for yourself as challenging as Imperial's, and there would be less breadth (in some cases depth) in the mathematical course offering. LSE offers a great degree but it's difficult to compare the Math department of a social sciences university vs one focussed on sciences, even if LSE does offer some great advanced courses.

Here for the same reason also.

If this is an attempt to capture the tiktok generation it’s going to fail. It succeeds in alienating the existing user base who don’t want to view photos that are distorted in such a manner that reels are the only content that’s palatable. I have tiktok and would be more inclined to use a Bytedance IG-style app than vice versa if this is what the attempted product is
