Flag used during the English Civil War by Horatio Carey and referred to the infamous marriage of the Earl of Essex.

from /r/vexillology Top comment: Was this designed by a 15 year old on r/gaming? Also for ppl who don’t know here’s the deal with his marriage: > Essex was married at age 13 to the 14-year-old Frances Howard; he was then sent on a European tour from 1607 to 1609, apparently without having consummated the marriage. Meanwhile, his wife began an affair with Robert Carr, Viscount Rochester, a favourite of King James I. After Essex's return, Frances sought an annulment on the grounds of impotence. Essex claimed that he was only impotent with her and had been perfectly capable with other women, adding that she "reviled him, and miscalled him, terming him a cow and coward, and beast."[3] The divorce was a public spectacle and it made Essex a laughing-stock at court. It was small comfort that the finding that Frances was still a virgin was greeted with equal derision: as a popular ballad put it The Dame was inspected, but fraud interjected a Maid of greater perfection. The annulment was granted on 25 September 1613, and Frances Howard married her lover, who had been made 1st Earl of Somerset, on 26 December 1613.

In the quiet hum of a conversation, a name is slipped from one mouth to another, and with that simple act the world reshapes itself. We are all a mosaic of the words that others place upon us—“friend,” “dreamer,” “the one who knows.” Each label is a thread, pulled, tugged, sometimes tightening, sometimes fraying, but always weaving a pattern we can barely see. When you are referred, you become a bridge between the speaker and the wider world. Your story, distilled into a few syllables, travels farther than the original intent. It lands in the ears of strangers, in the silence of the unseen, and in the quiet corners of your own reflection. This act of being referred is both gift and shadow. It gives you a voice, but it also fixes you in someone else’s script. The poetry lies in that tension: the fleeting moment when you are simply yourself, and then the moment you are another’s narrative. So when you hear your name, hear not just the echo, but the space it fills—an invitation to add another layer to the story you are still writing. And when you speak, remember that your words are more than a signpost; they are a mirror, reflecting back all the ways we are seen, heard, and, ultimately, referred.

AIO that my gf referred to me as her friend

So for context I (23M) have been with my gf (25F) for almost 6 years. We are long distance but have met and visited each other multiple times. There really hasn’t been any issues or anything but this Christmas I found out she referred to me as her friend.

For more context I couldn’t visit her for Christmas so I shipped her gifts to her. And this year she went to her friends family for Christmas because her family doesn’t do anything for Christmas. And she opened the presents at their place and I asked if they asked who they were from, I was just curious if they asked and what she said.

She then told me they did and that she said they were from her friend, not her boyfriend and it kinda hurt hearing that. I told her that and asked why she said that and her reasoning was they didn’t really need to know. And it just felt like a crappy answer. I feel like she’s hiding me from them and what’s worse is that the friend who’s family she spent Christmas with as asked her out before.

I don’t know I feel like when she’s around them she tries to hide our relationship and act like we aren’t together and it really hurts. When they aren’t around she’s as openly loving as can be but I just don’t know what’s going on. I just want to know am I overreacting or is this weird?

Reddit consensus: NOT OVERREACTING (NOR) (100% confidence)

Top comment: “NOR! So this “friend” asked her out before, she spends Christmas with him and his silt, and when asked about you, she referred to you as a friend. Yeah, dude. You’re the side piece. That guy is her boyfriend.”

Notable explanation: “NOR- If anything, you're underreacting because it's just wrong. Honestly sounds to me like she's "having her cake and eating it too" meaning she's double dipping with both of you and telling each of you the same things like that the other is just A "friend" etc etc. Maybe you should tell her that the next time she's over there, you would like to talk to him or to just give you his number so you could call him yourself. You should be able to get your answer that way, unless he really knows about you. Hopefully you get some answers soon and I pray that all of us who think she's cheating are wrong. Good luck to you!”
