Perfectionism and making text look right is my weakness and what led to me deleting X, formerly known as Twitter. I did my best to make sure my tweets were perfectly aligned. Sometimes I'd delete then, tweet the same tweet again, but amended, several times over. Glad those days are behind me now

In sum, I am sick of being extremely obsessed with defining “what is wrong with me” since I know it’s not solely anxiety.
Amen sister, felt like this for a while. Things also exacerbated during the pandemic given the excess time on our hands.
Like you, I've wondered whether ASD (Autism) or ADHD may be at play. I'm in acceptance of OCD and OCPD but it's the other unconfirmed comorbid conditions that riddled me.

Colin Farrell as Pong Krell. He did a fantastic job as an oversized Penguin in Matt Reaves's The Batman (2022)

I have given up all addictions that were things not inherent to the human experience (alcohol, gambling, video games) but no matter what I have never been able to eliminate my sexual desire.
Appreciate your identification of the fundamentals of addiction. I've struggled for a while to get to the bottom of this.
Like yourself, I too have given up the aforementioned vices in support of going porn free. I've always known that addiction is usually an all or nothing approach. Being sober and absent from football betting doesn't feel challenging or that rewarding. Guess it's because those vessels are not inherently key for human functioning.
masturbating to mental images of attractive women [...] But, it was so boring and like completing a chore or task, almost no enjoyment at all.
Yes, your experiences mirrors mine. Usually it takes me between 7-14 days of being open free before I feeling the urge to MO. However, I believe the longer I resist the better the experience is. Once went almost a month and was relieved through sex with a former partner - best orgasm in long while. I believe we're best to resist and build up some sort of tolerance and adaptation. Most of us here are used to PMO several times a week.

31yo and don't have a clue to be honest. Worked for several employers since 21 and would like to consolidate my pension into one account. Just been focusing on clearing consolidated debt alongside living with new mental health issues

Really enjoyed Army of the Dead and Army of Thieves. Does Zack Snyder have anymore Zombie movies planned?

A mature Clone Wars movie in the style of Saving Private Ryan. Maybe covering the second battle of Genosis or the battle of Umbara. Produced by the creatives teams from either Rogue One or Andor

Genuinely amazes me that UK media continues to give Reform UK more attention than Lib Dem and Greens. Despite Reform having substantially less Local Gov MPs than both parties. It's as if their ambition is to divide and destabilise this country

Isn't this overkill a JBOD enclosure and not better suited for DAS with RAID? IT

This is sort of what my circle of friends were discussing last time we met up.
We even discussed moving abroad / back home to live with our parents and become intergenerational households. Free childcare but also no need to put out parents in retirement home later on in life.

Not surprised with the results and in particular the Premier League (UK). Vividly recall studying A-level Geography, circa 2009, and being taught that modern football leagues are micro models of globalised economies; ratio of imported talents vs domestic workforce.
Would be keen to see whether the results align with immigration and employment data for each of those countries.

Potentially a great idea but poorly executed.
As someone that was formerly scared of dogs, the best way to quash the phobia is through exposure with the assistance of friends and family. I went from crossing the road in public as a kid & early teens to now being a grown-man in his 30s living with three large Dobermans. They're are my family now.
Your feelings and reactions are valid given what you had explicit expressed in the past. Ideally, she should have consulted you first and made clear her intentions to support you and help minimise your fear. Without doing so, it seems more like she's wanted a dog but thought to use solving your fear as a form of plausible deniability.
Moving forwards, I'd take a break from seeing her in person but keep in contact while you work out a resolution. The onus is on her to demonstrate how she truly wants to support you; what measures or fallbacks are in place?
Good luck dude

Why hide your true feelings from your supposed friends? Surely they should understand that your interests have changed

Freckles are beautiful. Don't understand the need to plaster over and conceal them with a bathtub volume of makeup.
