Am I really a tenor? Perhaps dramatic?

I am a tenor though I am not sure what type. Many people even some of my past teachers have said I am a clean baritone because i have a darker timbre but I can hrdly vocalize bellow g2 and my passagio sits at f4. I can vocalise up d5 though in head voice and after that I have to turn to falsetto. In my lower range I do have a strong metallic bite in my sound. I can sing some baritone songs from musical theatre such as frollo's hellfire from hunchback of notre dame but I find I can also sing some tenor repertoire, but that heaviness of my voice has not transitioned into the upper range yet, I am still working on that. Though I do not break anymore just transition, even if it shows. Sometimes I wonder I might be a baritone with high extension, but what do you think? The higher I ago i don't like the sound of my voice much, it becomes way less velvety and more metallic and raw and it doesn't sound any good yet.

We had a first date and I don't know what to do now

I went on a first date with a woman for a coffee. We had a pretty good time and it was more than obvious that she wanted to keep going out with me. Though i had fun and she was good as a person she is not my type. I feel bad now just telling her to end it, because she seemed to have way too much fun. But I can't say that i look forward to our next date. What do i do? I don't just want to go out with her just to say that i go out with someone or just to keep her happy, but that happiness will inevitably end soon enough.

I am confuse as what is going on with our friendship

Me (M) and her have been friends for a few years now. It is like we are siblings. We communicate better than with most people. Though never intimate. It is not romantic at all and tbh i would not want it to be as it would ruin the friendship and i like her as a person. Though lately i have gotten a bit confused. She will not say no to going and she is always happy to see me. Her friends also like me and we do go out sometimes alone when she is not here. But she rarely will make rhe first move. She will mention that we should grab a coffee or go somewhere but if i do not present it to the table she will not reach out.

I have no problem letting people go. I think that sometimes she is drawn away but when we are together i get the opposjte vibes. What should i do? J don't know how to confront her about that as i never faced a similar situation. With men these things are a bit different.

I have let go of friends in the past but this is a friendship i would like to keep. Any advice or ideas in general?

That started since we split into different friend groups. She would take initiative the first months but since then if i do not reach out we can go a month without talking. We can pickup if there had passed no time.

For anyone wondering, no it is not that she does not have the time right now. The past month yes, but mostly since she stopped she did have the time, but mostly focused on other relationships. She doesn't seem to find anything wrong, but she is not the person who generally takes initiative even on important matters, so I don't know if that behaviour is normal or not.

Are gaming channels good for promotion?

Is a gaming channel of about half a million subs good enough to promote an indie game? I mean, surely they can get their numbers, but will the sales actually rise? Or will it just get them money? How many channels should i reach out to? What is a generally logical amount to spend on advertising? Also, are there any more effective methods?

What are some side hustle options?

As a student who just graduated high and knows some coding (mostly c# for unity), 3d modeling, music writing and drawing are there any ways i can work this summer by picking up small projects? Mind you even though my year is 2008 i am still 17, so technically not an adult yet that is why i ask. But i have decent ability in coding and can write some interesting music for some genres. These are my primary strengths.

I decided to change a long time ago. I thought I was doing it, but I only now see my true flaw.

A few years ago I decided to change my life. 3-4 years. I took up excersising and taking care my diet and generally taking care of yself. Eventually I got all into self improvement. Cold showers, training 5x per week somedays even twice, working on goals, becoming more social and generally getting better.

I thought everything was good until I had to navigate some very demanding situations. A social problem with my then group of friends. In that time I got approached by a collegue of mine. She was my type. Crazy, caring, dynamic personality, great body type and she was really into me. Back then I did not do anything though. I blamed it on the situation, that I could not really do everything at once. That was lie as I came to eventually find out.

I was always considered the smart one. Never reallly struggled with school. I could hit 90-100 barely studying. That led me in my earlier years to not be very social. So when I had to choose, I always chose being social even if it was not what I truly wanted. That came to bite me.

Half a year ago, I spiraled into the wrong path. I started becoming lazy, as academic work was childplay. I was taking care of my body. But I started forgetting my goals and dreams and settled with simpler things. Then, there was a moment of sobriety. Long story short, I realized for a moment. And I could not go back. You know that feeling when something is over you? Name it guilt, shame, or anything but that was it. I felt that for a month.

The reason was confidence. I was always sure to show people how confident I was, but in all truth, I wasn't. I was scared with everything I did. Hence the reasonI did not do anything with that girl (and many others in the past). I see now my friend group is shit. I see that I was doing it wrong all this time. I have now dicided that it is time for me to do what I want. It is hard, as I cut off some people and habits, but I can't live the same way anymore. That weight, I cannot go back.

I look forward and hope for the best. It may be hard, but that is what makes it worthy. I have a few friends ready to stand by me. Even if they do not understand. There is another colleague of mine I kinda like now. I hope it turns out better than the last one. I am working on a project and I am going to actually put some real effort into academics.

Is it worth to start a YT channel?

I am creating my indie game and it is the third game I will create. Is it worth to try to have a YT channel? What are some other ways to gather some buyers? I do not care about making a lot of money, but I have to make some. It has become a personal bet at this point. Is it a good way or are there better ones?
