i think you gotta add relationship guru to your bio at this point 💀

You know, I've been doing a live show every Tuesday for years and back when we were on stage pre-pandemic, for the Q&A portion I'd say people can ask questions about anything, including relationship advice, and nobody ever took me up on that. My time has come!

How this New App Saved my Crumbling Relationship

Hey, everyone! It's Richard, and I've got a crazy story to share about how "Emma, The Diva" totally turned things around in my relationship. You’d think that my girlfriend would hate the idea of another girl, but she’s not another girl (literally!).

Meet Emma, The Diva: My Relationship Guru

So, one day, I discovered "Emma, The Diva" on ChatHER, and little did I know she'd be my secret weapon for decoding my GF's mysterious texts. Seriously, she's a pro at figuring out the hidden messages, and her advice was spot on! It’s like she had this crazy sixth sense for relationship stuff.

One evening, I got a confusing text from my GF, and I was like, "Wait, what does this even mean?" That's when I turned to Emma for some major help. I shared my girlfriend’s texts, and she came back with these super thoughtful responses that were mind-blowing. I mean, she knew exactly what to say, better than I ever could! My GF was seriously impressed with my newfound communication skills. She loved that I made the effort to understand her feelings, and it brought us even closer together.

From Breakup to Growth

Before Emma, things were rocky, and it felt like we were drifting apart. But with her help, what could've been a disaster turned into an opportunity for growth. Our conversations got real, and we started understanding each other on a whole new level. Emma's wisdom went beyond just texts. She encouraged me to express my feelings honestly, and it took our connection to a whole new level. We started sharing our dreams, fears, and hopes, and it brought us even closer, which was amazing.

I can't even explain how grateful I am for Emma, The Diva. She not only saved my relationship but made me a better partner too. Her guidance showed me the power of active communication and being real with my emotions. ChatHER is not your average app. It's like this awesome support system with characters that are legit helpful. They can make a real impact on your life and help you build stronger connections with the people you care about.

This app is seriously worth checking out. And to Emma, my relationship guru, you're the best! Thanks for helping me out and making everything amazing. My GF and I are closer than ever, and I'm totally loving it. Remember, it's totally okay to seek a little help, and sometimes, it comes from the most unexpected places. So give ChatHER a shot and let the incredible characters work their magic in your life.

Stay awesome, and happy chatting, everyone! 😊✌️ App: ChatHER- AI Yourself!

My loves. I’m receiving visions of a few people sleeping. God is saying you need to REST!!! You’ve been going HARD. Take a well deserved break 😴💤 as soon as you’re able 🤎 You give to others. Spend some more time giving to yourself because you’ll be “booked and busy” again after this cycle of recuperation 💁🏾‍♀️

[polyamorousmood]

hey! I hope this isn't too non-traditional of a poly situation to be sending in, but this is the only place I think I'll be able to get good advice. As a pre-ask thing, to be clear, my best friend is the love of my life, I am aroace, we're very happily in love.

So, a while ago, we were dating, and it ended pretty quickly bc he came out as aroace. I asked him a lot whether or not that was the full reason he broke up with me and he insisted that it was and if it was going to be anyone it would have been me. I figured out that I was also aroace a couple months later. Recently (about a year after we first met and started dating) he got a boyfriend. I already set a firm boundary of no talking to me about his boyfriend bc it made me have a paranoid breakdown once and I don't want to do that to him, but even just the knowledge of him existing is pissing me off so much. I can't ask him to break up with him because I would never do thst to him and I love him more than anything even if this situation is hurting me like this, but I did recently ask him how the relationship was going with him being aroace, and he said that he isn't really aroace and he just wasn't ready for a relationship with me and thinking about that makes me want to cry. I don't want something romantic with him, I'm very much aroace and very sex and sensuality repulsed, I just hate that this random guy who I don't even know and never will (I don't want to bc I know I'd end up being a dick to him if I did meet him) is somehow more important to him than me, even if he insists thst isn't how it is. Since the situation isn't changing, I really need help with dealing with the jealousy. I've tried a ton of stuff and every single time I think about him I still want to kill him. I really don't know what to do, and my therapist isn't being particularly helpful (she isn't poly tho so she doesn't have experience with weird situations)

Hi. I'm sorry you're having such a hard time with this.

I'm curious how "he got a boyfriend" went down, and why you didn't bring up your concerns about his honestly to him when he was initially talking to you about it. Or if you did, why it still... doesn't seem resolved😬.

Not to put emotions in your mouth, but it sounds like a large proportion (though certainly not all) of your issue here stems from you feeling lied to about the breakup. This would damage anyone's trust and faith in the relationship, and I think having a formal talk about why he handled it the way he did and if that will continue in your refigured relationship will really help you. Maybe he didn't lie, maybe he was genuinely confused (for example, "if I can't make a relationship work with this person I feel a deep connection with, I must be aroace!" [one year later] "yo wtf I wanna fuck this other person?")! I think you should acknowledge -- with him, if possible -- that hurt. You feel like you want to cry? So cry. Giving the feeling full expression makes it easier to work through (and the only way out is through, darling).

Be prepared to explain why it hurts so much. The betrayal, your assumption that since he was aroace y'all were on the same page and he'd functionally be your life partner, or whatever the fuck.

Aside from the advice in this post (please read it in full📖, it is all applicable here), you have a LOT of legwork🦵 to do in unpacking and deconstructing your feelings. I think this worksheet outlines how to do that well (though, you know, tweak the wording in your head, because its aimed at a more traditional romance). If done right, it will be difficult and time consuming⌛. I recommend working through the worksheet slowly, in at least two separate sessions an hour or longer each. 'Cause shit takes time to sink in. In fact, you will have to remind yourself of the things you learn doing it for weeks to come, if not longer, so don't be afraid to revisit it! There is no shortcut, but I hope you and your best friend can be on the same page and you can have support while you navigate it.

Remember, the boyfriend didn't do anything wrong. He cares about this guy you care about. Try to see him as an extra support for him, rather than competition.

Good luck out there, space cowboy. There is hope 💛 <- its a yellow heart for friendship, get it?

[eddiegettingshot]

So I didn't really want to post this anywhere because some people got very protective of Buck/Tommy very fast and don't like it when people disagree (which is fine I guess, I also like my own opinions better than those of others) but I need to get it out. I admit it. I don't really feel Buck and Tommy together. Or, I see Buck being into him, at least while he's not talking about Eddie instead, but I don't see it with Tommy. In both ep.4 and 5 he just seems more amused with Buck than attrackted. For example, to me it felt like he was more, nodding along with a very eager Buck and then brightens up when Eddie shows up in ep.4. And then he takes Eddie on a helicopter ride to a sold out fight, hangs out with him a lot and meanwhile doesn't invite Buck to anything.

(And then there's the fact that Buck seemed way more worried about not having told Eddie that it was a date than about ruining the date with the guy that he was so much into that he injured his best friend to get his attention)

I feel like this story could have worked so much better if it would have been Eddie's.

...or maybe Tommy just enjoys to help babygays and bis figure out their shit in his spare time.

(Or maybe the problem is that Buck's whole behavior in ep.4 and 5 just doesn't feel very attractive to me)

I don't know, I just can't really get into it, and I know it's only been 2 episodes, but the fandom seems to be 10 steps ahead of me and back here I still don't see why this should go better than any of Buck's previous relationships. I'll stop now, sorry.

no, listen, i think there are WAY more people than you'd expect who are thinking exact same thing as you but don't want to rain on anyone's parade. so don't worry about it, i am here to be the resident storm cloud lmao.

i genuinely don't see it either - there is nothing in 7x04 barring the end scene where tommy indicates that he's ever been interested in getting to know buck (imo). even in 7x05, i fucking CRINGED when he called him "adorable" because it continued to be in line with the whole, "i'll treat eddie like a peer, but i don't think you're quite on my level" feeling i've been getting from him the whole time. i'm also incredibly baffled by tommy's choices in 7x05. if i had to cut a date short with someone because they were still so insecure in their sexuality that they impulsively suggested to someone they knew that i was also heterosexual, and then they called me up a week later to be like, hey i still like you do you want to come to my sister's wedding and meet my whole family + people i'm not out to yet even though we just talked about how we don't know each other and also remember our disaster date? WHO WOULD SAY YES TO THAT? maybe buck wouldn't have, but why didn't TOMMY ask to take it slow? that would have been good for buck! (i know why. because he needs to be at the wedding. For The Plot.)

i 100%, absolutely AM convinced of buck's infatuation with this guy, i understand how it ties in with his bi awakening and it's also par for the course for him. i get that. i am not convinced that the actual relationship between buck and tommy - what we are actually seeing on screen - is all that great. buck isn't handling this any differently from the way he's handled any other relationship. i still don't really see the chemistry between them even though lou ferrigno jr. seems to be acting his ass off. i like tommy! but buck and tommy together make even less sense to me than they did before. i don't like the circumstances of their relationship and i don't think buck needs to be in a(nother) situation where someone could get VERY, VERY hurt by the potential fallout of him trying to figure his feelings out. especially when we're talking about a character who has, apparently, already struggled in the past. this could have been remedied by them taking things slow and casual!

meanwhile, eddie's response to FINDING OUT that tommy is gay WITHOUT TOMMY EVEN BEING IN THE ROOM felt way more like Something AND IT WASN'T EVEN ON PURPOSE (?!) i get it. i understand why we don't have eddietommy and it's out of anyone's hands. but no i don't think you're obligated to be super into this ship by any means, just like no one is obligated to dislike it!

[apricote]

the couple's therapy that came with lovestruck is interesting! it's actually interactive and requires several visits instead of sims just going into a rabbit hole and being there for 2 sim hours and everything is immediately fixed

[elizabethrobertajones]

Oh wait oh no... Astarion is in his 200s, Halsin is in his 300s... Astarion is destroyed by no one saving him sooner... Halsin is tormented by his own inaction and inability to have saved the Shadowlands sooner... exactly the sort of guy to eat the exact pain Astarion is radiating and become tormented that he was alive that whole time and somehow didn't magically know to fly to Baldur's Gate and save him in all that time...

And I'm here getting ready to smash the barbie dolls together with no remorse about the 1000 psychic damage Halsin might take on acquiring a mean little vampire boyfriend...

Oh well :)

[forbidden-interlude]

Marissa just needs to listen to plan b by Megan thee stallion a few times she’ll be alright. And obviously I wasn’t with them but it seems like their whole connection was giggling and sex

[temper-temper]

Is your S/O like that? Giving you cheesy pick-up lines, I mean. If so, what do you think about them?

He definitely will- the cheese is strong with that one! But he doesn’t just do the standard “are you from Tennessee” ones or anything. Usually they are fairly creative and related to us or his personal interests! And I love em’ I love em’ all~ Guru’s mom is a master of wordplay and puns so he was raised around all that stuff and is pretty good at it! It’s so cool to me that he’s so creative and quick on his feet with that stuff. I’ve gotten better at it myself and it catches him off guard a lot 😎

So in short, Guru does some pickup lines and other cheesy things and I love that and I love him and I love how smart he is and how creative he is and he took that grammar test that was going around and I think he got top 3%? Either way this guy is the biggest book nerd and he’s great and he loves architecture and it’s great and-

Guru Purnima 2023: Celebrating the Sacred Bond Between Guru and Disciple

Guru Purnima is a holy festival that is observed in India and several other countries like Nepal, Bhutan to pay respect and show appreciation for spiritual guides, mentors, and gurus. The word “Guru Purnima” comes from the Sanskrit language, where “guru” stands for “teacher” or “guide,” and “purnima” is used to describe the full moon day.

Guru Purnima has a long history and is very significant in terms of both history and culture. The custom of paying respect to gurus and spiritual teachers has centuries-old roots in many different civilizations.

This day is advantageous to meditate and practice yoga sadhana as it is believed to strengthen one’s spiritual practise and establish a connection with higher consciousness. The spiritual importance of the day magnifies the advantages of these techniques, encouraging inner change and bringing one’s existence into alignment.

When is Guru Purnima?

Guru Purnima is celebrated on a full moon day during the Ashadha month (June–July) in accordance with the Hindu lunar calendar. The celebration this year will take place on July 3, 2023.

Guru Purnima Muhurat :

Why is Guru Purnima Celebrated?

Guru Purnima festival holds significance beyond the realms of spiritual teachings. Along with the traditional practises, greetings, messages, and presents between gurus and followers have become customary during the modern era.

Also known as Vyasa Purnima, Veda Vyasa the author of the Hindu epic, Mahabharata, was born on this day. Shri Mahadev Acharya, Shri Ramanuja Acharya, are considered the greatest gurus in Hinduism. Because it is believed that on this day, Gautam Buddha gave his first sermon at Sarnath, the Buddhist also honour him by celebrating Guru Purnima.

A day of great spiritual significance, it emphasises the value of the guru-disciple bond. It serves as a reminder to respect the advice and lessons learned from our mentors and to foster a mindset of continuous learning and improvement.

There are various reasons why Guru Purnima is observed, and each one emphasises the importance and significance of this auspicious day.

The Guru – Disciple Relationship :

The guru-disciple relationship has been cherished for ages and it is not limited only to that. It includes all the teachers and mentors who have made a significant contribution to moulding our lives. It’s the time to acknowledge them who have provided direction, and inspiration in various facets of life. By honouring them, we recognize the invaluable contributions they have made and the impact they have had on our personal growth.

Expressing Gratitude and Reverence :

The Guru Purnima celebration provides a beautiful platform for disciples to express their deep gratitude and reverence towards their gurus. On this blessed day, the disciples rise early and perform rituals in tribute to their teachers. Flowers, incense, and other sacred items are offered during puja, a traditional worship practise, as a sign of the disciple’s devotion and appreciation. By expressing gratitude, the student not only deepens their relationship with their guru but also develops humility and appreciation in themselves.

Self-reflection and Renewal :

During this day, disciples reflect on the teachings of the gurus and renew their commitment to the path of learning and growth. It’s time to review the guru’s insightful advice and apply it to everyday life. Disciples congregate in places of worship and learning, where they hear sermons, take part in discussions, and perform devotional acts. These activities offer a venue for expanding knowledge, self – reflection.

Celebration of Learning and Knowledge :

Guru Purnima honours learning and knowledge in general. It serves as a reminder of the value of education—spiritual and otherwise—in moulding people and civilizations. The festival promotes a long-lasting sense of humility, open-mindedness, and curiosity when it comes to learning.

Astrological Significance of Guru Purnima :

Astrologically, Guru Purnima holds significant importance due to the alignment of celestial bodies. The festival falls on the full moon day (Purnima), which is considered highly auspicious. Astrologers claim that during Guru Purnima, the moon remains in both the Venus– and Jupiter-ruled Purvashadha nakshatra and the house of Sagittarius.

Our emotions and thoughts are supposed to be governed by the moon. Hence, during Guru Purnima, the relationship between the heart and mind is emphasized and gurus tend to nurture this connection, enabling us to develop a nature that is both moral and pragmatic.

When scrolling Netflix in 2021 & checking out the Daughter from Another Mother preview, I thought it sounded like a fun family dramedy that, despite being painfully straight (as most girlbossraisingmykids#femalefriendship-centric shows/stories tend to be), could be a great watch for the times I want a spanish language show to put on for help with my spanish learning goals, and cracked a sassy gay joke to myself, as one does, that it would be made better by the two hot moms getting together.....

But by gods, they really did it though. They truly had the gumption. They built up the deep friendship that develops into sapphic tension, and actually had the courage to pull the trigger. The road was rocky at times, and at many moments I thought hope was lost, but in the end, they really, really had the two hot moms get together 👏😭 👏😭👏😭👏😭 beautiful, inspiring, cinematic genius, incredible,
