single..

to be honest i dont know if its bad or good to be single. I am relatively pretty happy compared to most people in relationships i know.

+1 ;)

That's why it's better to let the time come by itself rather than forcing relationships... I know people that just cannot live a single part of their life being single, I don't understand that.

No, guys who don't like girls will most likely become homosexuals.

Mysoginist != homosexual. Grow up!

Recently seperated after being with someone for 12 years, 8 of which we were married. She left me for my boss (words cannot explain that feeling). Have 2 young kids, and feeling a little lost, though it's only early days (she left Jan 08).

Now that is cold! I mean, leaving with your kids!!!! Sorry man!

Yer I know the feeling

No you don't. You're young, single by your own admission, and insecure about that. This man has lead a married life, fathered children, and now is in this situation. You don't know that feeling at all. Neither do I!

Yer I know the feeling, feels like you've lost your purpose in life. Its like your whole life is leading up to this one moment and then you get dumped... just wanna bash your head against the wall n stuff. really SUX =[

I guess that's what happens to the "standard nerd". As the poll suggests we are mostly the losers when it comes to love,90% male who have been dumped like garbage.

How on earth can you say you know how it feels? Your 15? And have never had a girlfriend. Probably never been anywhere near 'in love'.

I can't even imagine the pain that he went through/is going through. My dad went through a similar thing. Was married to my mum for 14 years. She left in the blink of an eye, and left him with my sister and I. I was only 5 at the time though, so I didn't understand what was going on.

Anyway. My point.

You have no idea how he feels.

Divorced, now single, and staying that way. Women are evil, spawns of satan, each and every one of them. I can imagine a glorious world with nothing but robot porn stars and men. That world would rule. :p

broken up and hating relationships.

I recently went through a tough break up myself, it's funny because I know people like yourself have it so much worse when you have children involved and you're forced to still communicate. Despite that, I'm sorry to hear that.

I turned 21 in March, I just got out a relationship of a year with a girl(24) I had lived with. We broke up due to various reasons but the girl I met in February was only 18 and boy, I got my world turned upside down. I suppose I saw it coming though. The sex was stellar, and she always wanted to be around... but let's say she had emotional issues, maybe we all due but she had extensive ones.

This girl made me feel like we were going to be together forever. We also shared a lot of special occasions, my 21st, her 18th and her prom/graduation. We were never apart aside from her senior class trip for 9 days. Well, fast forward, I lost my job(where we both worked, and got the job together) in mid-July because I was a total douche to the management. A month later, she cheated on me and left me for one of her high school teacher (45 yrs old) and now we don't talk at all. Mainly by my choice but she hasn't really tried to contact me. All I know is that they're "serious" and she spends all of her time with him now. It's really been one of the most devastating experiences I've ever had.

I just have to post this. You guys are all lucky you can, despise the bad that has happened to some of you. I do feel bad for you, honestly.

But, im 18 going to be 19 and havent had a GF my wholeeee life. Now i know techinically i cant have a gf at age 4 or etc. Well what I mean is my WHOLE "dating" life. So around 10-11? what ever the age is at when people usually just start to like girls and etc.

My story is, Im born in america, RAISED Indian. I am the most Un Knowledged American Ever! There's many things i dont know as far as (actors, etc). Like I know the history, just all the "common" stuff people just happen to know, im one of the people that doesnt. Now i speak 3 languages fine, my 2 languages and English perfectly fine.

Now, the part most of you will find funny, I have an ARRANGED Marriage. I am not ARRANGED atm, My mother wants me to get a career so either a steady job now, or start college, finish, find a good job and then arrange me.

So, for those of you who despise dating and etc becuase of your bad experiences(i dont blame but..) I am the one who cant date ever.

My view is, I cant sleep next to someone I dont know. Yes, I mean sleep with in bed, not sex. So just being introduced and engaged and married to someone I dont know or met, and it all happens in a month. Usually less. As much time as the parents get, thats how faster it goes.

So yeah, think of my position.

I can still find adblocking solutions than having to rely on a browser from a shady company.

    • Alpine Linux 3.24 released with support for COSMIC Desktop and other improvements by David Uzondu Alpine Linux 3.24 has been released with updated system packages, including Linux kernel 6.18 and Rust 1.96. The team also added IPv6 support to the system installer, and they introduced automatic serial console configuration for headless setups. System76's COSMIC desktop environment is now available in the community repo. System76 originally started building this DE because its developers found GNOME to be pretty limited. Plus, it did not help that with virtually every GNOME update, the changes broke System76's custom desktop extensions. As for system packages, the Alpine team moved GTK+ 3.0 from the main repository to the community repository due to its legacy status. py3-setuptools has been upgraded to version 82.0.0, while the old pkg_resources module has been completely dropped. The team also removed outdated packages that still relied on py3-six and GTK+ 2.0. In addition to that, libsoup 2 has been removed because the library was affected by multiple security vulnerabilities. If you're a GRUB user, the Alpine Team said that you must manually run the grub-install command with your specific device or EFI options right after upgrading your system, otherwise, your computer may fail to boot properly with the newly updated GRUB 2.14 bootloader. New installations of Alpine Linux now offer an optional path to a /usr-merged directory layout if you set the BOOTSTRAP_USR_MERGED environment variable to 1 before you execute the setup-disk command. If you already run an older installation, you can migrate manually by installing the merge-usr package and executing its binary as the root user. The team recommends this layout to align Alpine with modern Linux standards, though you should verify your custom scripts before making the switch. Alpine Linux is a pretty tiny (~5MB) Linux distro built around musl libc, BusyBox, and OpenRC. It's been around since 2005, comes with its own package manager called Alpine Package Keeper (APK), and is widely used in modern cloud computing and software deployment.
    • Instagram now lets you manually reorder posts on your profile grid by David Uzondu Instagram is finally rolling out the ability to customize your feed layout as you see fit by letting you reorder posts on your profile grid. This feature comes several months after the app introduced a tool that lets users rearrange photos and videos within a carousel post after it has already been published. To do that, people tap the three-dot menu in the top right corner of the post, select the edit option, and reorganize their slides. Now that Instagram has expanded the feature to your profile grid, you can organize your main page without deleting old uploads. To use the new system, you simply tap any picture on your grid and select the option to reorder. This action opens up a separate screen where you can freely drag your grid items around until you get your preferred aesthetic, and then you just hit the back button to save your changes. Instagram's Threads account posted that the system would reach accounts starting this week, so you might need to wait for the automatic update to hit your phone. https://www.threads.com/@instagram/post/DZVV_fyjjSW In other Instagram news, last week, people figured out that if you ask Meta's AI support assistant to hand over any Instagram account, the bot will actually hand it over (even if the victim's account had 2FA enabled). The security exploit involved the assistant accepting prompts from users and generating password reset links for unauthorized email addresses. Meta said that the issue has now been fixed, but this came after the issue affected several high-profile accounts, including @obamawhitehouse. Last month, the company finally rolled out paid subscription tiers for WhatsApp and other Meta social platforms after months of testing. WhatsApp Plus costs $2.99 a month and gives you custom themes, while Instagram Plus and Facebook Plus cost $3.99 a month for extra profile customization and story rewatch counters. Meta's also working on Meta One, a unified subscription service that contains options for heavy users of its servers who want more reach or advanced features. For instance, Meta One Essential ($14.99/mo) comes with a verified badge and impersonation protection. If you pay for Meta One Premium ($19.99/mo), you get deeper AI reasoning tools, whereas the Meta One Advanced ($49.99/mo) tier increases your search placement (on Facebook and Instagram) and visibility.

    • EU says Meta must restore rival chatbots' access to WhatsApp by Hamid Ganji The European Commission has ordered Meta to restore third-party AI chatbots’ access to WhatsApp after the tech giant decided to block them from operating on the popular messaging platform. After Meta banned rival AI chatbots from operating on WhatsApp, the European Commission launched an antitrust investigation to determine whether the company had abused its market dominance. As a result of Meta’s decision, third-party AI chatbots, including Microsoft’s Copilot and OpenAI’s ChatGPT, were prevented from operating on WhatsApp. At the time, Meta said it wanted to reserve the WhatsApp Business API for other types of businesses and did not allow rival chatbots to use it. This effectively prevented the WhatsApp ecosystem from being used to distribute rival chatbot services. However, the European Commission has now announced an interim measures decision requiring Meta to restore access to WhatsApp for rival general-purpose AI assistants on the same terms and conditions as before October 15, 2025. The Commission has also asked Meta to maintain that access until the antitrust investigation is concluded. The Commission argues that Meta has used its dominant market position to prevent rival AI chatbots from accessing the WhatsApp Business API. While Meta allowed rival services to return to WhatsApp by paying a fee, the European Commission still considers that arrangement to be a de facto access ban. According to EU antitrust chief Teresa Ribera, the fees introduced by Meta are so high that using WhatsApp is no longer economically sustainable for competitors. “It seems that Meta expects to leverage the vast reach and likely dominance of WhatsApp to benefit its own AI assistant and to foreclose rivals,” Ribera said. “We cannot let large digital incumbents leverage their dominance of the past to dictate who in Europe gets to compete and who gets to innovate in AI.”
