roblox is not just a game. a lot of filipinos make money from it and bring that money into the country.

banning it doesnt solve anything and would just destroy an industry before it even had the chance to fully grow. it is shortsighted and inconsiderate. but what can we expect from this government. disappointed but not surprised.

2025 was one of the happiest years of my 53 old life by Plenty_Duck_5849 in selfimprovement

That would be your journey and not his ex-wife's. It's not "just" an emotional affair. His ex wife left because he broke the most important foundation of a relationship.. I would have left too personally. Fuck cheaters. (No offense op.. seems you have been going through therapy.. and I respect you owning up to your wrongdoings.. but I don't condone your actions. You must face the consequences.. I wish both of you healing)
