12 Former Forever-Aloners Give Valuable Advice On How To Escape The Dark Abyss Of Loneliness
1. Keep putting yourself out there. You’re not gonna meet your future someone by sitting at home alone (unless it’s the food delivery person I guess). Even if you only have one friend (or none) who is available that day & can join you, still try to go to concerts, bars, bookstores, restaurants etc alone.
Also just because things don’t happen romantically with someone doesn’t mean cut them off. Sometimes people are meant to just be a fun friend/acquaintance and you can expand your social circle through them, and meet a romantic partner from that.

The Perils of Trying to ‘Fix’ Your Partner
The urge to “fix” our partners is deeply ingrained in us. We see a flaw, a weakness, an irritating habit, and our natural instinct is to step in and make things better. But what if, in trying to fix our spouses, we’re actually damaging the very relationship we’re trying to save?
Here’s the truth: you can’t fix your spouse. They are an individual with their own unique set of experiences, values, and desires. Trying to mold them into your ideal version is not only disrespectful but ultimately futile. It breeds resentment, fuels power struggles, and erodes the foundation of trust and acceptance that healthy relationships need.

First photo of Sam Bankman-Fried in jail at MDC Brooklyn
Aphoto of Sam Bankman-Fried, the disgraced founder of cryptocurrency exchange FTX, has surfaced, revealing a markedly changed appearance since his incarceration. The photo, made public by crypto journalist Tiffany Fong, offers a rare insight into Bankman-Fried’s life in prison.
Tiffany Fong disclosed that the photograph was provided by a former gang member known as G Lock, who shared his confinement space with Bankman-Fried. The timing of the photo, taken on December 17, 2023, was significant as it was one of the rare occasions—specifically Christmas and Father’s Day—when inmates are permitted to capture moments through photographs.
What is the Psychology Behind ‘Nice Guys’?
The “Nice Guy Syndrome” is a term that has gained traction over the years, referring to men who believe that by being agreeable, accommodating, and eschewing conflict, they will be more likable, and as a result, more successful in their relationships and life in general.

How Many Red Flags Can You Spot In This Situation?
I started dating this guy that I met online three months ago, and we’ve been out on a few dates. The first date went really well. Then the problems started up a day after the first date. In fact he asked twice not to block him before the date could end. He then apologised for saying he liked me so many times during the date and calling me beautiful etc.
The day after the date he started getting more clingy than usual and said that he really needs my attention. He went as far as saying that he’s already obsessed and craves my attention, which I took as a joke because it was so soon, but he looked serious and said that he sees a lot of potential with us. I thought that was kinda quick but we have been chatting online for a while and got close on an emotional level so idk if that’s normal or not. I do like him but it’s a bit much sometimes especially since I haven’t dated in 4 years and forgotten what is was like to be in a relationship.
