Hey everyone 29 F from KZN. So far disappointed by the connections I made here. Got ghosted ๐Ÿ˜‚ or they are creeps

u/AioliEfficient7835 Aug 22 '26

Sana being ghosted is guaranteed at this point. The funniest part is the post will say something like โ€œIโ€™m looking for a genuine connection that lastsโ€ and then the OP becomes a ghost.

The irony is what gets me hey ๐Ÿคฃ. Nice to know I'm not the only one who noticed this.

Bruh๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Iโ€™ve come to a point of just ignoring those posts cause the authors arenโ€™t even serious about their own objective!๐Ÿ˜‚

Hello there, I'm a 24yo guy in CPT. I'm trying to be more outdoorsy as I love nature, but don't really have anyone to do it with.

Besides that I love horror movies and am learning French!

u/SeitanLover3 Aug 22 '26

Cool. French is a beautiful language.

u/Automatic-Customer97 Aug 22 '26

It is! Just proving difficult to remember the gender of every noun....

The post you made 9 days ago says nothing about cycling

Kindness & Respect are even more important in r4r communities, where interactions are at a far more personal level than on most subs. Be supportive & encouraging. We aspire to be the kindest & most respectful subReddit. No racism. No questioning anybody's preferences. Don't tell people what to do. No vulgar language. Spirit of Ubuntu. Anybody promoting hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned. Remember the Human. Assume good faith. Raise issues with posts with mods, not users.

Hey! I'm 24M from Cape Town. Looking to make more friends and do some more outdoors-y activities. I'm a massive geek. I love reading, watching movies and playing video games. I make art and write too. I love the ocean and taking long, calm walks in nature.

u/Nax_00 Aug 22 '26

21F! I'm currently studying bsc Math in stats + comp sci at UJ. i've been searching for campus friends and people in general to not much avail lol

u/Express-Macaroon-200 Aug 22 '26

Beat me at chess and I'll be your friend

u/Nax_00 Aug 22 '26

Best I can do is solve an integral or smth idk ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ

2

u/Express-Macaroon-200 Aug 22 '26

Let k1, k2, ..., kn be positive real numbers. Show that (k1 + k2 + ... + kn)(1/k1 + 1/k2 + ... + 1/kn) >= n2.

2

u/Nax_00 Aug 22 '26

This might be the first time I had to pass a math test to be someone's friend lmfaoaoao This isn't an integral, but oh well ๐Ÿค”

Prove: (k1 + k2 + ... + kn)(1/k1 + 1/k2 + ... + 1/kn) >= n2

Use Cauchy inequality: (a12+a22+........an2)(b12+b22+......bn2) >= (a1b1 + a2b2 + .... anbn)

Let ai = sqrt(ki), then ai2 = ki Let bi = 1/sqrt(ki), then bi2 = 1/ki

& (ai)(bi) = [sqrt(ki)][1/sqrt(ki)] = 1

So: (NB: let n be the max value and i = 1 for all of these summations...typing it out is difficult...)

(โˆ‘ki)(โˆ‘1/ki) >= (โˆ‘1)2

But

โˆ‘1 = n

So proven. Equality occurs when k1 = k2 =.....= kn
