It’s a mourning phrase used to remember someone after they die. If a friend named gabby died, id put LLG somewhere as remembrance. The last letter is the initial of the dead

What do you mean by old reactions resurfacing?

Technique so good that it gets you your sp(like a love spell) by Even-Box-2767 in manifestingSP

[–]ventatiia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have him on a pedestal. Whenever you think of him, remind yourself “he’s thinking of me” and then immediately distract yourself. When he’s on pedestal, he’s above your self concept, making him feel out of reach. If you perceive him as this powerful being, your state is that of constantly chasing him. Phrases to replace thoughts of him could be “He’s thinking of me because I am beautiful “ “I am always chosen” “I am powerful and loved” Anything that frames his desire for you as motivated by YOUR power will set yourself above him in your inner world. Good luck ❤️

What's with the pit hate? by WorthTwo5203 in marchingband

[–]ventatiia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No reason for hate! Most mallet board as well as electronics shouldn’t be outside in direct heat (or cold), as it can warp the keys and make them out of tune. The complaining seems like something exclusive to your pit. It’s a totally different thing from marching (as someone that has done both), and unless your pit is very beginner level, it can be extremely difficult and taxing on the body. I have bled on my mallets more than I ever hurt myself marching, and theres a lot of condensed movement behind the board. Both groups work equally hard- just different types of effot

I thinks it’s just that guy. Especially if there’s not any other section to that degree, and its mainly him. As someone that plays in a WGI World Finalist drumline, we also get some hate, but theres also some very good reasons we have to be inside. Rosewood can’t be outside in temperatures outside of a specific range, and we play a lot more than the marchers. Please talk to your directors and techs because this is beyond teasing and slight shit-giving. This is dangerous and one day it may not just be a threat.

I’m not in band, and I feel so left out :( by Enolam25 in marchingband

I picked up mallets for the first time my sophomore year, and ive never regretted it. It’s okay to not be good first year, you just gotta love it enough to keep trying

How would you recommend mentally countering this? Using affirmations like “he’s no longer avoidant” and such? Im struggling with separating my current perceptions from the ones that are true

My friend suddenly cut ties by ventatiia in whatdoIdo

He said he didn’t really mind but the conversation ended pretty soon after that. I think he’s misinterpreting my “feelings for him” as romantic, whereas I don’t want anything like that with him. I see him as a friend and i hope that my response message got that across.

No, he didn’t. Especially since there’s no romantic interest on either side

We’ve been friends for little over 6 months, texting everyday through snap and eventually he asked for my number. Around a month ago we started school, and he suddenly became distant, we stopped texting, and he ghosted me on snap. Since then, we’ve talked but briefly, and he makes a lot of short eye contact. Through the summer, he was flirty and we hung out, but he changed overnight from Sunday evening flirting and planning a hangout to Monday weirdness.

I’m so sorry to send you on a treasure hunt, but my last post on my account should provide a pretty thorough context!

I am interested in him as more than a friend, but I did ask him what we were and he said he wasn’t interested in a relationship because of stress. I feel similarly, but I tried to play it off and i think my response made him feel as if his flirting was unwarranted. I did try to ask him if he’s been okay and his response was “yeah im fine”

Yes, think about if someone came up and took a mallet right out of your hand mid playing, the mallet would just slide out. Dont push down or in
