I'm going to keep this brief.

I got divorced last year. It wasn't bad, it was just that we weren't in love. It wasn't anybody's fault, but with hindsight, I don't think that we'd ever really been in love. Not in the right way. I think it was just very good friendship, and an intimacy that we both mistook for romantic love. The relationship had been dead in the water for a couple of years, but it took a big life change to make us realise it. We split on better terms than I've ever heard of in a divorce.

But it doesn't matter. You still feel like shit, because that thing that centred you is gone, and naturally we want love in our lives. Then you get frantic; every day feels like a month. You

Although ten threads per day about Malazan, First Law and Name of the Wind are excellent fun to wade through, I'm looking to find something different to read.

Recommend a fantasy novel that you think people actually might not have read.

I'll start by recommending Kim Hunter's The Red Pavillions duology, which starts with Knight's Dawn. It's the story of an amnesiac knight who wakes up in a strange world. Light hearted, witty and funny throughout, it has some great characters. Check it out!

r/Anxiety•

Hi, so this is the first time I've ever posted here. It's strange because I'm normally a really, really confident person. I'm a university lecturer, and I have no social anxiety, though I have experienced performance anxiety. People would usually say that I'm annoyingly self confident, so I never thought that I might have anxiety. I guess I just want to reach out to people and talk. Sorry that this got long.

I wrote a novel, and it's due to be published in July. In all honesty it's a pretty big release, with a lot of money behind it, and I don't know, but maybe that's been weighing on me without me realising it. My wife has been suffering from anxiety and depression for a year now, since he

r/Vaping•

Hello all,

I am looking to see whether anyone has experienced any similar issues to this.

I recently tried vaping, and I loved it. I got a Kangertech mini and I was sold a tub of liquid called 'Nasty Juice Sour Apple.' I used it for about 2 weeks.

After 2 weeks I decided that I was vaping quite a bit, so I decided to take a break. That afternoon, I had an intensely tangy taste in my mouth that wouldn't go away. My mouth was salivating a lot, a bit like I had a Haribo Tangfastic sour candy in there. I put it down to an after effect of the vape, and assumed that it would go away in a few days.

Three weeks on - the tangy taste is gone, but instead I am constantly beset by an unusual taste i

r/pokemongo•

Hi,

So I just started powering up my Pokemon (I'm level 18 and am able to caputre weak gyms with an 1800 Vaporeon) but I'm a bit confused.

I am only Power Up'ing those with max IV stats, but my "It's a wonder" Mr. Mime seems to only level to 900CP, my Magmar to 1250CP and the Vaporeon to 1800. Are these 'natural CP caps' that simply apply to different Pokemon (and therefore should I only bother to evolve the top 6) or something else?

Thanks for helping!

r/Surface•

Hi everyone,

I wonder whether anyone can help me?

I bought a Surface Pro 4 and it was delivered on Friday. Since I got it, the WiFi has been terrible to the point where I can't really use it at all. Details:

  • I have a fiber-optic connection. With an ethernet cable my PC gets 50+ mb/s
  • I have a 4 year old, bottom of the line laptop that receives good signal everywhere in the house. I am able to use that laptop to watch 720p Twitch.tv streams without any issue (and have done so for years).
  • My Surface Pro 4 is unable to maintain streams of 360p quality for more than a minute or two. After that, the stream will stop working completely. A simple page like Twitter takes 5-10 seconds to lo

I am currently Diamond 2, have been in Master league in all expansions.

Ideally I'd like to see VODs or replays (pro games especially, of course, but not much I can learn from 500 APM Korean gods), but if you're ranked Diamond or above then I'm also interested in written replies. Please no replies if you aren't currently Diamond league or above.

Please assume the following:

  • I scout after Gateway on a 2 player map.
  • The Terran walls off with 2 depots and a Barracks so my scout cannot get in. I don't know it's coming.
  • I go Pylon, Gate, Gas, Nexus, Gas, Core, 2nd Pylon (both pylons in base close to gases/mineral line). I have to do this as they could be building an in-base Command Centr

I would like to challenge you to play me at a game.

Here on this sub I see an awful lot of posts where someone has an idea for something and wants to know 'if it can work.'

  • "Can vampires work in ancient Egypt?"

  • "Can knights be necromancers in space?"

  • "Do you think it would work to have my dead mother's ghost haunt the main character but only when he's eating Cheerios?"

The answer to every one of these questions is the same.

Every idea can work. The execution is what matters.

I've read some books that had bizarre or terrible premises when described, but that were great, and I've read some that had premises that sound great on paper but that I hated. Every idea can work if

Hi guys,

I am generally a macro player and always take a fast third base, but I've come to realise that I'm missing out on one of the main strengths of Protoss. I devised a Blink timing against Terran and I'm happy with timings against Protoss but I have no idea what to do timing wise against zerg.

Any resources you can link me to? I'm Diamond/was master in WoL/Hots, so macro complexity is not an issue.
