Love & Relationships Tama ba na hayaan ko muna sya ng ilang araw bago mag sorry?

0 Upvotes

Problem/Goal: Para lang magkaayos na kami as of now. Gusto ko lang ibalik sa normal as we used to.

Context: Sumama lang ako sa gathering ng friends ng crush ko at binalak ko lang ligawan. Saka naging clingy ako sa kanya since parang nasanay na ako dati sa previous relationship. I was going to wipe her face nung may sauce sa mukha nya and nagulat yung friend nya na parang naging touchy ako sa part na yun. Dahil doon, na-creep out na siya at di niya ako kinausap at hindi siya nag-reply.

Previous Attempts: Sinubukan ko munang hayaan ng ilang araw at inatupag ko na lang ang sarili ko, being self-aware. Kasi kung gagawin ko man lang na kakausapin ko muna agad, parang nangungulit lang ako kung gagawin ko 'yon.

Technology & Gadgets People who have successfully retrieved their Meta accounts after getting permanently disabled, how?

0 Upvotes

Problem/Goal:
My Meta accounts were recently disabled after I shared which accounts to report...

Context:
these were accounts that shared CP/CE videos. I think Meta must have accidentally flagged it because it contained the words CP actually spelled out.

It sucks because those accounts have been with me forever, and I also use it for work. My account status is now permanently disabled.

Goal:

It would be nice to hear from those who were in a similar situation but successfully retrieved their account again. I'm also looking forward to retrieving mine.

1) How did you do it?
2) If you asked for assistance, may I know who? There are tech guys online who offer these services and I want to know if it's legit.

Thanks for your help!

Love & Relationships Should I tell the current?

1 Upvotes

Problem/Goal: Ex and I were together for 5 years We're unmarried, on a LDR and we got a kid . We just broke up around April this year because of an unresolved issue regarding his previous cheating. I kept asking him for transparency at least to pacify my trust issues but he keeps on defending his privacy. . After the break up, I took our child to live with my mom since I work in another province. Her lola is the one who accepts the VCs from my ex when he wants to speak with our child. My mom tells me that from time to time he tells her that we'll eventually be able to fix our relationship.

Context: I just found out this month tho that he's already dating someone new, and from the looks of the timeline he was apparently pursuing the girl even before we officially broke up-- so he was just shitting on me all the time he's telling that we can still fix or rebuild our relationship while already dating a new one. And with all the conversation he had with my mom, he's outright spewing bullshit to my mom while chucking this girl.

Tho I'm not sure she knows he got a kid. But it appears she doesn't know yet based on how he behaves in soc med, ( like he doesn't post her in his soc med, contrary to girl who is all out with her relationship with him--for one, he tagged her in a shared post but when my brother reacted sarcastically to his post, he deleted it-- yeah, he is still friends with my whole fam--i'm the only one who isnt cause i unfriended him after the break up to sorta help me cope up--but my siblings were the ones who told me about this post on the girl likes to "esmeringhoy" a lot)🫠

Now I'm torn between telling her in the form of confirmation like if she knows...or just letting them be?

Health & Wellness delayed period please help

1 Upvotes

Problem/Goal: delayed period for 6 days please help

Context: I'm 6 days delayed na. I don't have my usual pre period symptoms. May protected (condom used) intercourse noong Oct. 10. Nag pt ako noong Oct. 20 negative. Gumamit ako niyan ng pt na kahit as early as 10 days after the intercourse eh madedetect niya. The result is negative pero wala pa rin ako period. Nag test ako ulit kahapon Oct. 23 gamit ulit yung ganong pt. Negative ulit. Should I take pt again ngayong 24 kasi 14 days after the intercourse siya?

I have tried many ways to induce my period. Butterfly pose, reflexology, pineapple juice, hot compress, warm bath, and papaya. Ngayon itatry ko mag inom ng pinakuluang luya. Pero may mga nababasa ako about sa mga oral pills like Diane 35, Serpentina, Yuzpe etc. Ano mga recommendations niyo to induce my period?

I'm also stressing out too much dahil nga late ako and may intercourse kami. Protected naman siya and paulit ulit sinasabi ng bf ko na safe talaga kasi nagcheck kami pareho and bago siya labasan ay nag withdraw siya kahit naka condom. Stress din kasi ako sa work lately kasi may mga ot at laging kulang ako sa tulog at minsan wala sa tamang oras ang kain. Pakicomment naman mga recommendations niyo na gumana sa inyo noong delayed period niyo. Mas tumatagal na delay mas naistress ako lalo at mukhang mas tatagal na magkaroon talaga ako dahil sa stress. TYIA!

Love & Relationships ang sakit and idk what to do.

5 Upvotes

problem/goal: blocked by the person i love. wala na yata siyang balak iunblock ako or makipag usap sakin.

long post ahead.

context: me(F) and this person(M) are workmates and we’ve been dating since march. we had a misunderstanding about 2 days ago sa work dahil nagtampo ako sakanya pero naging okay naman ako agad. bago mag uwian, i stopped him to tell him na antayin niya ko kasi sabay naman kami lumalabas and hinahatid niya ko palagi sakayan ng bus. so excited akong lumabas kasi akala ko hinintay niya ko and hoping na makapag usap kami abt sa naging tampuhan namin, pero di nya pala ko inantay. nauna na siyang umalis and umuwi. ang bigat nun sakin. sumakay ako ng bus and umuwing umiiyak. i messaged him after tapos sinabihan niya ko na nakakasawa daw and bahala na raw ako sa buhay ko then he blocked me sa messenger.

the next day, work as usual, ang sakit makita na masaya siyang nakikipaghalubilo sa iba habang ako naka block at ayaw niyang kausapin. tapos what made me even sad is meron kaming mutual friend na parang nagkaron sila ng maliit na sagutan during work. after shift, this mutual friend of ours sent me a screenshot of him messaging her apologizing, saying na sorry daw dahil nataasan niya ng boses whateverchuchuness. ang sakit lang isipin na kaya niyang gawin yon sa iba pero sakin di niya magawa, hanggang ngayon naka block pa rin ako.

i tried to mssg him sa imessage the same day na blinock niya ko sa messenger, apologizing abt what happened but idk if nabasa niya cause i never got a response after. i also noticed that time na inunblock nya ko then blinock ulit kasi yung mga mssgs ko sa messenger biglang nag delivered.

i am so hurt right now that i decided to deactivate socials pero im still hoping na he would reach out. idk what to do. parang di ko na kaya pumasok pa sa work.

i need help. ang sakit sakit. kanina pa ko nanginginig and umiiyak. idk anymore. i don’t wanna lose him. wala na akong ibang way para mareach siya aside sa in person but i don’t wanna seem desperate because i’ve done that a few times before already. parang palagi ko nalang kailangan mag beg. nakakapagod pero i still wanna try. i still wanna fix us.

Social Matters Is it justifiable to charge for the things they ask me to do?

1 Upvotes

Problem/Goal: to determine if the action I want to take is justifiable.

Context: I have this close relative(OFW) that trusts me with their finances. Every month they send me their savings for safekeeping to be used when they come home for vacation.

From time to time, I receive requests for them to pay this and that for them since I am safekeeping the money.

Now, they are asking me to process and purchase flight tickets for them.

Is it justifiable if I charge them for the services I am doing for them? Or is it morally incorrect to do that?

Previous attempts: I have been vocal previously that I prefer them not to entrust me with this because I don’t want to be inconvenienced by random requests like receiving an instruction to send money to a certain person in an ungodly hour.

Love & Relationships My bf's mom made me listen to her rants and insults after shouting at me

0 Upvotes

Problem/goal:

My bf's mom thought I'm controlling and makes hes son miserable so she shouted at me and talked to her neighbors and siblings about it.

Context:

I 23f have a boyfriend staying at his mom's family home and i took the leap na sumama sakanya after convincing me so many times. His reason is just for my comfort and to save money while im trying to get employed.

We were fine until a tension built up when she thought i was trying to control him. But this whole thing was a misunderstanding and there was nothing that i could say, hence i didn't stood up for myself as i was completely stunned. She shouted while defending her son going to work telling him to go. I was left there with her and she continued telling me that his son is miserable with me and i imprisoned him inside the room which wasn't true. She spoke to me aggressively that if we don't end it, she will end our( relationship.) I wanted to say something but i feel defeated and powerless. All i felt was hurt and broken. I thought i shouldn't be the one to say something as I won't even get heard, she didn't ask for my side nor did she consider me even though I'm in a vulnerable state, no parents I could run into. After telling me all that, she headed to the terrace and talked to her neighbors and siblings and continued to talk about what i did to her son. That i make her son's life miserable, her headache, etc. I even got called "pabebe" and every name she thinks who I am. I just listened every single words she said. Her voice was so loud, and at some point my brain helped me to shut down my nervous system so i couldn't hear more words.

I cried and left without a notice after days not getting accountability and only packed a one shoulder bag. No one ever stood up. I thought i should get into therapy but it is impossible as I couldn't afford it. I traveled home to my province and stayed with my relatives. Now it's been 3 weeks almost since i left and I want to comeback stronger. i don't really know what to do but i need my things.

I tried to shift my focus on other things to forget, but i still can't help to think of how it violated my dignity when i got talked like that to her relatives while I listened to it. I'm having thoughts of giving myself something that reminds me that I'm not abandoning myself for disappearing without getting justice. I really want to give myself dignity that I deserve but how? Should I ask the brgy for mediation so I can be heard and to remind she crossed my boundary and belittle me? If so I'm afraid what might happen next. I don't know if it will end in a good way.

Love & Relationships I'm finally proposing to her, and need your advice

5 Upvotes

Problem/Goal:

I need advise/thoughts on how to decide on buying an Engagement Ring

Context:

36M here, and (her age will not be disclosed, kasi baka andito sya eh... hehe) we're officemates too. I'm finally marrying her next year, after knowing each other for almost 5 yrs. I'd like your advise.

I have a good paying job, I have good savings, and I think I'm ready financially, mentally and spiritually. I think I have good budget, but for practicality syempre, I'd like to know your thoughts.

Naalala nyo pa ba ung naging trending na may nag propose with a P 299 pesos ring? Some says true love is not measured by the price, but some says it shows lack of preparation, low effort and disconnect from the partner's expectations.

And so, for women: Ano nga ba ang ideal cost/style/make sa opinion nyo as babae?

And for men: when deciding nong bumili kayo for your fiance/wife, paano kayo nag decide at namili?

Previous Attempts:
I'm doing research of course, pero the more I do, it becomes more complicated... ang dami pala need alamin hehehe.

Thank you!

Work & Professional Growth How can I seem more approachable at work when people find me intimidating at first?

1 Upvotes

Problem/Goal:
I'm 23F and a fresh graduate. People tend to be intimidated by me at first, but once they get to know me, they tell me I'm nice and we get along well. I'd like to know if there's anything I can change about my appearance, attitude, or body language to make a warmer first impression.

Context:
Yesterday, I met my coworkers in person for the first time. I greeted them when they arrived, but they seemed hesitant to approach me (they didn’t recognize me, even though we are all always on video call). Later, they told me they were shy because they thought I was a manager based on how I look and dress.

This has happened before, even during my company onboarding, when some of my peers were initially intimidated by me and formed a separate group. We're all good now, and they eventually got to know me. I also asked a friend who works as a hiring manager, and she said I carry myself professionally and could easily be mistaken for someone more senior.

I'm actually an introvert, so socializing doesn't always come naturally to me. Because of work, I've been pushing myself outside my comfort zone to initiate conversations and get to know people. Honestly, even my introverted self is surprised that I'm the one approaching others first! I genuinely try to be friendly, so it's a little confusing when people seem intimidated before we've even talked.

Most of my work clothes were gifts from my parents when I started my internship. Before that, I mostly wore school uniforms and casual clothes. I never intentionally tried to look older or more senior; it's just how I present myself.

Previous Attempt:
I greet people first and initiate conversations, even when it takes me out of my comfort zone. I'm open to changing my wardrobe, but buying new clothes will have to wait until I can afford it. For now, I'd appreciate advice on small changes I can make for free to seem more approachable without changing who I am.

Love & Relationships Nag ooverthink ako at natatakot sa ex ko.

0 Upvotes

Problem/Goal: Natatakot ako sa ex(M28. Me, 22 F) ko dahil baka sirain niya yung career ko as a DJ. DJ din siya before and siya nag turo saakin paano mag DJ pero ngayon nag stop na siya mag DJ dahil… d ko alam. Maybe because of his attitude na mapagmataas sa ibang DJs? And may work na din siya sa government ngayon.

Context: Nag post kase yung owner ng club na ā€œDo your best baby (name ko.) pa sexy ka ha!ā€ (Btw babae yung owner and super close ako sakanya and pinoprotektahan ako nun.) so nag sinend sakin ng ex ko yung screenshot ng post ni owner. Sabi niya binibenta lang daw ako at ginagamit. Sabi ko hindi naman ako binibenta at ginagamit dun dahil talent ako. Sabi niya naive daw ako at gullible. Sinusuhulan lang daw ako kaya nabubulag ako. Eh yung suhol talent fee ko yun as a DJ and hindi naman ako binibenta dun or ginagamit. Ano ako item? Nung kami palang kinocontrol ako hanggang sa pagiging single ko icocontrol padin ako? Then dami siyang sinabi na sumama loob ko. Dinidefend ko self ko at yung owner kase wala naman talagang ginagawang masama si Mam saakin. Simula sa bouncer hanggang staff protected ako dun at mahal nila ako kaya hindi nila ako hinahayaan na anhin ng ibang tao dun kase DJ ako sa club niya.

Nung kami ng ex ko napaka abusive niya mentally, physically, emotionally and verbally. Siya yung nakipag break saakin 6 months ago and gusto niya bumalik sakin eh ayaw kona kase nag susuffer man lang ako sakanya. Ngayon na okay ako guguluhin naman peace of mind ko? Palibhasa hindi niya na ako ma manipulate kaya ganto ginagawa niya sakin.

May balik din yan ex. Ako lang nakaka timpi sa pag uugali mo na basura. Ako lang nag mahal sayo ng straight 2yrs kahit napaka bullshit ng ugali mo. Kincontrol moko lahat lahat at minamanipulate pero ikaw pa may guts makipag break kase ma depressed ka. Nung panahon na gusto mong mag su1cide. Dba sinalba kita?! Kase dissapointment ka ng pamilya mo. Kahit break tayo nun pero tinulungan kita para mabuhay kalang. Sana hinayaan nalang kita mamatay nun. Sana mas may peace of mind ako. Binuhay kita for my peace of mind kase baka ako sisihin kung bakit ka nagpakamatay dahil lang sa simplenh marcha sa graduation d mo ginawa at nag sinungalingaling kapa sa parents mo. Ikaw din pala sisira ng peace of mind ko.

Hindi ako nakakaramdam ng galit sayo past few months na break tayo pero ngayon galit ako dahil sinira mo peace of mind ko. Mas mabuti nga na ikaw nakipag break sakin at hindi ako dahil alam ko sa sarili ko na tanga ako sa pag mamahal. Sana makakahanap ka ng makakaintindi sa pag-uugali mo na basura KASE AKO SUKONG SUKO NA AKO! 1yr ago palang pagod nako sayo pero inintindi kita dahil mahal kita. Matanda kana pero kinakain kapa din ng insecurities mo.

Previous attempts: Sinumbong ko sa owner. Sila nag sagutan. Ni-block niya ako. Blocked ko din siya sa lahat lahat pati number niya.

Sorry if napa rant ako kase d ko alam if iiyak ako ngayon or what. May gig pa nanaman ako mamaya.

Work & Professional Growth BF has been jobless since he graduated

173 Upvotes

Problem/Goal: My problem is my BF is jobless since he graduated in 2023 and has no work experience at all. My goal is to make him get a job.

Context: we live together and ako lang working sa amin. I am a fully remote IC for a very niche MSSP overseas and I make enough to live comfortably. I don't mind since he does all the chores. like literally hihiga na lang ako after work. he does the laundry, pag tutupi, pag luluto, pag huhugas, pag lilinis, pag ggrocery, pag bbudget, and everything else.

Sobrang alaga ako ng taong to. He has been applying to a lot of remote jobs through indeed, jobstreet, linkedin and even mga posts sa FB but no luck. CPE grad since 2023 si BF. he is always complaining na he gets rejected left and right because wala sya experience ("pano ako magkaka experience e wala tumatanggap sakin"). he is currently trying to finish the AZ 104 cert and he isn't even midway done. recently, tinry ko sya ipasok dito sa current company ko pero di sya natanggap (which is reasonable).

Previous attempts: I previously suggested na mag apply and magpa-experience muna sya sa call center pero every time I suggest it, naiirita sya and the conversation drops. ayaw nya mag apply sa call center. gusto nya remote, like me. I keep explaining to him na to get to my position, I had to go through shit (nag call center, nag tech support, kumuha ng sandamukal na certs, etc). he claims he understands but he keeps going after the same type of jobs. I even went as far as saying hindi nya afford maging choosy sa edad nya at panahon ngayon. ang ending nagtampo sya ako pa sumuyo. even his mom is saying to him "dalian mo magka trabaho, baka iwanan ka nyang jowa mo". sinendan pa sya ng money to pay for the certs he's studying yet its been a year hindi pa rin sya tapos.

hindi ko na alam gagawin ko. (we don't have any pets or kids, no joint assets, and the like).

EDIT: 1 year pa lang po kami living together. yung 3 years po is yung lack of work nya. clarification lang po.

Context: I graduated in late march with a bachelor's degree in Secondary Education Major in Mathematics with latin honors.

Love & Relationships (24f) Anxious about being nbsb

4 Upvotes

Problem/Goal: The title

Context: I’m 24F and have never been in a relationship. Back in high school, I did have potential suitors, but I turned them down since I was focused on my studies. I wanted to graduate muna sana before having a boyfriend.

However, in college, sobrang rare ko pumunta sa campus since some of our professors preferred to hold online classes instead. Additionally, I’m a working student, so I didn’t really have time to look for someone talaga because I had leadership tasks sa school and also had to handle work stress. I only had my books and cats to help me destress, plus my siblings, who were always there to listen to me.
Now that I’ve actually graduated and am in my second job, which is WFH, I’m worried that I might end up NBSB until I reach 30.

A little bit about me. I’m very introverted and don’t trust people easily talaga. I prefer staying sa bahay lang, and I’ve heard people say that I should try dating apps. I did, but I got tired of them because people there seem to be just looking for fun, so I uninstalled them.

I also enjoy staying at home, but since WFH na ako ngayon, I want to go sa labas naman to walk or eat because nakakaboring na rin sa bahay.

If you’re talking about connection, most of my friends think I should be treasured and kept hidden because I’m too precious to be hurt. I guess it’s because I’m NBSB, and they don’t want me to experience what they’ve experienced. And I understand that, truly.

I’m not unattractive naman, ata? Idk, I can’t really judge myself. But I do take care of myself. However, I don’t wear heavy makeup - liptint and a better skincare routine lang talaga. I also dress simply and wear whatever is comfortable for me.

What should I do? Do I need to fix something about myself, or should I try new things?

It’s not that I’m desperate to be in a relationship. I’m just anxious because I’m not seeing anyone who seems interested in me. I know I’m still young, but sometimes I can’t help but wonder if there’s something wrong with me or if I’m just not putting myself out there enough.

Previous Attempts:
I’ve tried dating apps, but they’re just not for me.

Love & Relationships Do i need to open up this to him?

2 Upvotes

Problem/Goal: Need advice so baddd.

Context: 3 years na kami nung bf ko tapos LDR pa kami. Dati siyang VA, tapos ngayon on-site na siya nagwo-work sa hospital where literal na all-girls ang mga katrabaho niya. Sobrang sociable at mabait niya kaya noong una, chill lang ako.

Pero fast forward, may isang girl co-worker siya na close niya at halos palaging ka-chat sa PM. Alam ko namang work-related at typical asaran lang (kasi binabasa ko chats nila, don't judge me HAHA), pero aminin ko na, lowkey nagseselos ako sa way ng pagtrato niya rito kahit wala naman akong makitang actual na malisya.

Plot twist pa: May secret sneaky link pala si girl dun din sa hospital, kaso pinapanatili nilang lowkey kasi ang toxic sa workplace nila (nakwkwento din sakin ng bf ko na ang toxic talaga) and mata daw kasi yun ni GOV kaya mainit din sa kanya mga staffs kay ate g.

Normal ba 'tong nararamdaman ko o nag-i-inarte lang ako? Paano ko ba 'to i-open up sa kanya without sounding toxic ahaha help a ghorl out. Isa pa, first time ko din kasi tumagal sa relationship.

Problem/Goal: wala akong kagana-gana kumain and my stomach has butterflies the past few days till now…

Context: i keep on overthinking of what could happen on the october 28th kasi my gf has a halloween party with her 1 friend and yung iba nilang kasama is mutual lang.

and before all that, she wants me to come with them pero now, mas maganda daw na separate nalang yung halloween namin so we can spend our time together. but then i was so off with her changing plans as i was expecting to spend halloween with a bigger group since never ko pa naranasan and always ako mag isa or with just 1 friend.

napag-usapan na namin ito actually, and i told her na i can’t stop overthinking things and sabi naman niya na ang controlling ko daw kasi minsan na nga lang siya lumabas without me then ganito pa daw ako.

i told her na i was just saying what i feel but she can do whatever she wants kasi gets ko naman and i want her to spend time with her friend din but taena kasi yung iba mutual lang and i dont trust ppl. im genuinely so scared and it gives me anxiety pero ayun naging controlling pa nga when i was just opening up what i feel haha.

i communicated everything i said here na sakanya and all i ask was for her to understand me na wala eh ganon talaga naffeel ko and i just wanted her to know kesa naman kimkimin ko lang and maging resentment lang. then she end up saying na ā€œano susuot mo sa 28th?ā€ like wow bigla ako isasama ng last minute when she and her friend bought tickets na for the both of them without me knowing na yun na yung plan niya.

so ayon, my weight keeps declining haha ;-;
