My SO and I have known each other for about 5 years. We were friends for the first two years and started dating just under three years ago. I'm in the US and he's in the UK.
Our relationship has been great for both of us, even if there were some snags along the way. About a year ago I was suffering from an undiagnosed mental illness at the time and was acting out quite a bit. I was completely out of touch, manipulative, and very depressed. My SO understandably backed away and told me that until I got help and got better, he couldn't be around me. It took about a month for me to get diagnosed and on meds that worked, but after that we were ready to try again. That first break up changed a lot of our relationship for the better and I feel it was a positive turning point. We've been working hard to build our communication skills ever since.
A few months ago we separated again for different reasons. We were going through some really rough things in our lives and needed to focus on ourselves for a bit. We also had our doubts about the validity of our relationship. We didn't know if we were still together because we were used to being together or because we really wanted to. We started dating so young that we both had our doubts as to if we were really right for each other. We kept in touch and separated with the idea that we would see how we felt later. We were also completely free to date others.
Well, two months later we realized that neither of us were interested in dating someone else and that the time gave us the opportunity to really reflect. He realized that he wanted me more than anything and I realized that my emotions for him ran deeper than I knew. We decided to get back together and we've been certain about or relationship ever since. The time apart gave us another opportunity to build ourselves up as individuals and we've become even stronger as a couple.
Now that we know for certain we want to be together we have been kicking around the idea for us to get married and move my SO over here and finally start our life together. He's pretty excited and has strong faith that it will work. I'm excited too, but I still have my worries. We're a young couple and there will no doubt be many more problems down the road. Pretty much everything I've read says that settling down young leads to almost certain disaster and with our past problems I'm scared that we're doomed. Even though our past problems made us stronger, it's hard to let go of the fear of

I'm surprised no one has thought, "What if Palpatine did get a chance to teach Anakin to create life with the midi-chlorians, and he really did save PadmΓ©?" People seem to think that obviously, Luke and Leia would then be raised as Sith, but.. Well, let's see where you go with it.
I know it's unlikely, but still.
Circle of Ivy
Circle Spells
2nd-level Circle of Ivy feature
You have formed a bond with nature, plants in particular. Your link withΒ plants and the natural world grants you access to some spells when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown on the Circle of Ivy Spells table.
Once you gain access to one of these spells, you always have it prepared, and it doesnβt count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain access to a spell that doesnβt appear on the druid spell list, the spell is nonetheless a druid spell for you.

-
don't follow on the play because it won't work more often than it will;
-
follow the play.
I feel like the first option is always better because it's a more consistent/sustainable approach, but when I do that my Support will usually tilt and abandon lane to rage roam.
So is it better to not tilt the Support or to avoid their sketchy plays?
