I found a way

Starring Nathan Fillion, Alan Tudyk, Ron Glass, Summer Glau, Morena Baccarin, Adam Baldwin, Jewel Staite, Gina Torres, and Sean Maher: Firefly

There could be a variety of reasons for this behavior…

• She is uncomfortable because she doesn’t know how to comfort you
• She is avoiding her own trauma triggers
• She is ADHD or Autistic and doesn’t understand what’s expected of her in those moments
• She is not looking for a partner and only wants a relationship that’s “fun”
• She is callous and doesn’t care to put in the effort to support a partner

But here’s the thing… the root cause is not important (yet)

If your partner is unwilling or unable to support you, that’s not a good partner for you. That doesn’t make her a bad person necessarily…she may not be capable of dealing with everything you’re going through. But even if that’s the case then she still might not be the right partner for you.

I recommend trying to get her to focus on you before having your next conversation about this. Don’t start talking about the problem until her phone is away and she’s making eye contact. Don’t do it over text.

If that goes okay, then tell her what you need. Don’t sugar coat it or be vague. Tell her directly “when I say this particular please it means I’m looking to you for support and I need you to lock in, listen to where I’m saying, and engage with me as a supportive partner.”

If she can’t do that much, then it is probably time to move on. And if she listens and ignores you…it’s probably time to move one.

Communication is hard. And it’s the most important thing in relationships.

Good luck!

EDIT TO ADD: As someone else said, she also can’t be your therapist. Especially not at your ages. That doesn’t mean she can’t listen and provide comfort though. It’s important to manage your expectations - she’s not going to be able to give you advice or help you solve these issues - but it is not unreasonable to expect that she gives you her undivided attention when you are vulnerable

It’s important you also understand this: You will never, ever see all the content. What you are deciding is who and what determines which content you see.

Do you want Reddit deciding that for you based on their algorithm, moderation, and other policies like API access?

Or do you want to choose based on which threadiverse community aligns with your ideals (including the option to setup your own with full federation to everyone)?

…ngl I’ve been looking for a campaign to join 0_o Just saying :D

Protect that DM at all costs. They truly understand what it means to create a D&D campaign

Truly worthy of GotY

This sounds an awful lot like a story Gary made up to cover for his mistake /s

This implies the existence of incompetent dragons and I really want my DM to have us fight one

Seasons don’t fear the Raven Queen

It’s called “Call of Cthulhu”, not “Sighting of Cthulhu”, forehead

get out of here with your soros-funded shill story you damn communist hippie

/s

^if I could make this bigger I would

oh no, it’s someone with two accounts on two of the largest servers for the two main pieces of software mimicking Reddit! what a scandal!

Can’t attack my argument so you attack a fictitious version of me instead. You clearly hold the moral high ground here /s

Also lmao at “85% of the world supports public executions and beheadings” you absolute psychopath xD

Cool story, still extrajudicial slaughter.

EDIT: Oh right, you’re from .ml so obviously you support fascism when it’s for your team. I should’ve known.

it’s not going to for either of them

it never does lol

I’m feeling really prescient because I finally decided to sell most of my NVIDIA and gaming sector stock literally on Tuesday.

Though it turns out even today’s correction just brings us back to where we were earlier in the week, for the most part. We’ll see how things go Monday…

I work on software security (not it/infosec) and deal with this constantly. Bad stuff didn’t happen so we can scale back security, right? No, shit for brains, either the bad stuff didn’t happen because we prevented it, or the bad stuff just hasn’t happened yet because the vulnerability wasn’t discovered, or worse still, the bad stuff DID happen and we haven’t been informed yet. Either way, please do not make my job harder.
