2025.01.23 06:53 Pristine_Country9733 Dear G,
Now that I’m free, I see it all so clearly, the heartbreaking mess of love and control that was us.
The cracks started to show two months in. I remember the first time you screamed at me. It was over something so small. I stood my ground, and you twisted it, accusing me of needing to be in control. The irony still stings. You were the one who had to be in control. Just like your father. “My way or the highway.” But you’d never admit that, would you? I told myself it was a bad day, that it wouldn’t happen again. I was wrong.
Looking back, the signs were all there, but I ignored them. Love does that, it blinds you.
I spent so long questioning myself. Was I too sensitive? Was I the problem? But then I think of our couples therapy. How you presented us as a perfect couple who just had “communication issues.” How you sugarcoated everything for the therapist while being painfully cruel to me behind closed doors. I finally cracked, I told her the truth.
I told her about how you policed my phone, how every interaction I had with anyone but you was met with accusations of cheating. How you made me cancel plans with friends (even when you were out of town!) all because you couldn’t go. How I had to start taking screenshots of my messages and pictures of where I was at and who I was with or you’d say I was lying and cheating. All while you had my location and the passcode to my phone.
How I couldn’t go for a walk, take a shower, or even sit on the toilet too long without you barging in and accusing me of not loving you anymore, not wanting to be around you. I told her how I’d stayed up late, waiting for you get home from work (when you would actually go to work) to avoid the arguments. Even though I worked a full time job and had to be up early in the morning.
How I’d have to sit like a statue, silently beside you as you played your games. Terrified of moving, of distracting you, of setting you off. You’d rage quit if I talked to you or moved in your “peripheral vision”. I mean for fucks sake you yelled at me for my cat meowing at you while playing a video game.
I told her how you’d go on long tirades about your passions while I listened, wanting to support you. But when I tried to share mine, you snapped your fingers “Spark Notes,” you’d say, like my thoughts didn’t matter. Is it any wonder I stopped talking to you?
I still remember what you said after therapy. When we got home, you looked at me and said, “Oh, well, that’s great. I can’t see our therapist anymore. She probably thinks I’m a psychopath.” Hearing that was like being hit by a truck. You knew your behavior was wrong, you knew you were being psychotic & instead of taking responsibility, you made it about yourself. Your tarnished image.
And then there was that trip. You said it was for me, a gift. I told you we couldn’t afford it. You were always calling out of work but you pushed. You promised everything was covered, that you’d planned it all. Before we left, I asked if you had enough money for rent, and you swore you did. You promised.
You said you left it in cash at home to make sure you didn’t spend it. But when we got back, it was like the rug was pulled out from under me. You were ordering takeout, spending money you didn’t have, and then, without skipping a beat, you asked me for hundreds of dollars because you were short on rent. Who does that? Who spends money in front of someone & then, in the same breath, asks them for money?
You smothered me. You told me you weren’t co-dependent, but you lied. I told you I needed space to recharge, but space was a threat to you. Every time I tried to tell you how much I was hurting, you’d cry or rage until I was the one apologizing, comforting you. My pain was always drowned out by yours.
I loved you. I loved the man who made me laugh, who charmed everyone, who was so incredibly smart. Then man who made me feel like the luckiest woman alive. But that man wasn’t the whole truth. The other side of you, the side that controlled, suffocated, and loved to fight was always there, too. And even now, knowing all of this, my heart remains ignorant. I still miss you.
I miss the safety I felt when I believed in us. But love shouldn’t feel like losing yourself.
If you hadn’t let your fears poison everything, if you hadn’t been so cruel, I would still be laying in bed with you right now. Scratching your back till you fall asleep. But by the end, I didn’t even want to be near you. Not because I stopped loving you, but because I didn’t have a choice in the matter. I resented you.
I know you won’t read this but in the event you stumble down this rabbit hole, I’m not seeing anyone. As much as you hurt me I still love you. As much as I know it would never work I still wish it did.
Our flame didn’t fade out, you smothered it. Please heal. Gods know I’m trying to.

2025.01.23 06:53 SeaEntrepreneur8579 劉寶傑不幹了 請辭主持近18年的節目《關鍵時刻》
年關將至，播出長達近18年的政論節目《關鍵時刻》，外傳61歲的當家主持人劉寶傑不幹 了！東森電視台內部近日傳出他已退出內部核心Line群組，主因是他年薪高，該節目卻收 視輸三立同時段的李正皓《新台派上線》，遭高層指責，他心裡不爽，憤而提出請職。
對此，劉寶傑未接電話，未回《壹蘋》求證簡訊；他曾上別家節目表示，他起初的人生規 劃根本沒有想過能進電視台，最初的夢想是當報社主筆，可以用一支筆臧否時事，後來因 為主跑捷運與陳水扁，剛好電視台急需解說陳水扁現象的記者，他才站在攝影機前評論政 治，開啟了「寶傑時代」，一轉眼，《關鍵時刻》已經近18年了。
劉寶傑在《關鍵時刻》的口頭禪「真的假的！」，外界都都說很誇張，但他說，其實比起 美國的政治秀算溫和的，他記得自己「開竅」是看到美國脫口秀主持人居然在攝影機前面 撕了稿子，直接「啪！」扔到攝影鏡頭前，這才恍然大悟，原來政治名嘴本身談的是政治 ，但表現方式很視覺、很綜藝，這樣才能「吸睛」，此後他開始改變說話節奏與情緒，他 笑說自己只要攝影機一開，就「起乩」，果然受到觀眾歡迎。
劉寶傑也曾提到2000年胸椎開刀切除腫瘤後，他右腳無力，腳掌無法離地10公分，過斑馬 線看到黃燈亮起，就不敢跑。

2025.01.23 06:53 DeadairHead My ex knows my every move and my phone behaves weird
Malware scans are fruitless but I know he can hear audio from my phone and camera access. Can anyone help me? If I talk about him to someone else he appears in dms and defends himself from the conversation I was having. There is absolutely no way he would be able to know what I was talking about unless he has access to my phone’s audio. I got so frustrated I went and bought an android phone and started moving everything to the other phone then I slipped up and accidentally gave someone the new number on the hacked phone and now the new phone is doing all kinds of weird stuff. I really need someone to help me!

2025.01.23 06:53 hribarinho Vdelava zemljevida v spletno aplikacijo
Pozdravljeni,
mi lahko kdo priporoči kateri zemljevid in kako je najbolje vgraditi v spletno aplikacijo?
Idealno bi bilo, če bi lahko na primer vezal na naslov, ki je v aplikaciji. Torej, s klikom na naslov, se odpre zemljevid.
Gledal sem že leaflet.js, openstreetmap in tudi zemljevidi od najdi.si.
To potrebujem za brezplačno aplikacijo, zato bi se rad ognil Googlovi plačljivi različici API-ja.
Prek elementa iFrame sem uspel vdelati le zemljevide od najdisi, ampak me zanima, če obstaja kakšna boljša varianta.
Hvala in lep pozdrav

2025.01.23 06:53 Artistic_Company_756 Agree with me or not but maruti is only the company who truly understands indian market
Explanation for that tittle
I won’t talk about the past as almost all families in the past have owned/driven/commuted in maruti in the old times
After lockdown maruti has changed in a goodway with good updates to their cars , launching hybrid and all with plenty of features and good styling unlike some others
Now they’ve released a new ev the e-vitara , I won’t talk about the specification and stuff but their new app and new thinking that every dealership in India will have a charger and you can book the charger with the app is truly mind blowing concept
Kudos to maruti for the new stuff that’s on the way

Has anyone got the switch offer by using two direct debits on the original account that have not been taken yet? They are both set up and showing in the list of DD’s on the account I will be switching from but haven’t been able to find anywhere if the DDs need to have been collected from already.

2025.01.23 06:53 HelenicBoredom Is my Visage save salvageable?
I did the Lucy Chapter first and I think I'm around halfway through the Dolores Chapter; I reloaded the game and half the house is just like gone. There are black voids where the hallway used to be and if I walk into it I just endlessly fall under the map. Is this supposed to happen for the Dolores chapter or am I fucked and I have to play the chapters over again?

2025.01.23 06:53 thepinnacle42 Potential burn marks around oven plug
 | We’re just about to move out of the house we’ve been living in for 5 years and we’re cleaning around the oven when we notice this mark. We’re pretty freaked out cause it looks like a burn mark but we’re not sure? We’re going to play it safe and not use the oven until we move out and will be letting the landlord know as well. Are we right to be concerned about this or is this just a stain from the oven or something? Thank you electricians!!!!! :) submitted by thepinnacle42 to electricians [link] [comments] |

Personally, I wouldn’t wanna be seen like that. Does she think it looks good? Is it unhealthy to brush your hair every day? I’m just not sure where she’s at mentally.

2025.01.23 06:53 46297472 I don’t know what to do
So, the other day I was drinking with some of my friends and one of my friends boyfriends show up with some of his friends and we got get pretty wasted by the end of the night. My friends boyfriend drove me a couple of his friends and some of mine home. Only I was supposed to be going home with my friend but I passed out in the car. Next thing Ik I woke up in his basement and he was doing things to me, I get so overwhelmed I can’t move. I have no idea what happened after that but next thing I knew it was the next morning and he was asking me if i remembered anything from the night before. I said I didn’t really and asked him what happened he didn’t really say anything. Now I have no idea what to do if I tell her I know she probably won’t believe but I feel wrong for not telling her but I haven’t told anyone other than my bsf who I was supposed to be with.
