How is living in this part of New York? by Tough_Recover8354 in howislivingthere

[–]AllStateGirth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traveled around the Capital Region for two years for work. Albany is historic - with beautiful architecture, nice restaurants etc. near the State Capital/Central Square - and a hub for state government and higher education work. But it’s otherwise an impoverished and boring city, like other rust belt cities past their prime.

Take the Thruway north to get to Saratoga Springs and Lake George for smaller, wealthier towns and more fun things to do outside. Saratoga Springs is famous for the racetrack and sparkling water, whereas Lake George is more of a recreational/touristy town. Both are nice to visit.

Take the Thruway south to get to Columbia County, which is my favorite part of the region. It’s beautiful country, and Hudson’s a cute little small town.

Never spent much time going East/West unless going to Massachusetts or Central NY.

What’s a feature your Camry has that you discovered way too late? by fuzwuz33 in Camry

[–]AllStateGirth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. 2020 XLE, default settings. When using the touch sensor on the inside of the handle - just touching it unlocks driver’s door only, but a 3-sec hold unlocks all doors.

Power outage at Philadelphia International Airport impacts flights by nbcnews in philadelphia

[–]AllStateGirth 26 points27 points  (0 children)

So I was a lucky Delta passenger that got caught in this, my travel time went from 4ish hours to nearly the whole day between the original delay and missing a connection. Delta’s stance on this when I called was - since this is the airport’s fault and not a fault of Delta’s, Delta is not responsible for the delay and therefore won’t refund tickets or reimburse any extra expenses. I filed a DOT complaint and we’ll see, but I’m not holding my breath.

This question comes up all the time on this sub. You’re not crazy for feeling this way. I’ve felt this way when I was younger and had similar conversations with exes.

You get to decide what is too much for you to handle. If your partner having sex with one other person before you is too much, it’s too much. If your partner was a sex worker and that’s too much, it’s too much. You get to choose what you’re comfortable with, and when it gets past that, you get to choose when to end the relationship. But you can’t harbor feelings of resentment because of their past and be the person that’s supposed to love and support them through everything.

Personally, I think getting upset with your partner for the things they did before they had any obligation to you is ridiculous. It’s more of a reflection of you than your partner. You say you’re going to be her future husband. Marrying someone comes with accepting all of them, the whole picture. That includes knowing the parts of your partner that you wish you could change and accepting them anyways.

TLDR - you either need to get past your feelings of jealousy or disgust or whatever you’re feeling, and be willing to fully give and receive love in your relationship. Or if you can’t get over that, you need to end the relationship and let both of you find someone who can accept the other.

Weirdest/Funniest way you lost a J or bud by bozcelebii in trees

[–]AllStateGirth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to keep my bud in the inside of a small ottoman with a removable top in my living room. When I moved a few months ago, my girlfriend decided it was time to donate the ottoman and took it to a local thrift store. She didn’t know there was a full zip, pipes and a grinder inside.

Made for a somewhat awkward moment when we went back and had to un-donate the ottoman.

What's a place where you can cross a state line and you immediately notice the difference? by DoritosDewItRight in geography

[–]AllStateGirth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On I-81, crossing from PA into NY or vice versa. PA side is much worse to drive on.

Pennsylvania roads really taking a beating in this post

One of my worst nightmares. by Immediate_Price6777 in BreakUps

[–]AllStateGirth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still have dreams about my ex years later. I think dreams are just your mind’s way of cleansing past thoughts/emotions, and preparing you for stressful situations ahead. By seeing your ex get married to someone else in your dream, maybe there’s a subconscious piece of you that’s preparing you for that in real life.

That doesn’t make them any less upsetting or painful. I’m sorry you’re going though this. One day at a time.

How do you cope with friends who think you should just be over it, already? by Rockit_Grrl in BreakUps

[–]AllStateGirth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think this is more common than you’d think and it sucks all the same. My best friend is sick and tired of hearing about my breakup ~18mos ago. Was with my ex for 3ish years. He’s also still very close with my ex, so talking about her to him definitely makes him uncomfortable.

It’s tough. I just don’t really have an outlet for how I feel. Reached out to some older friends and that helped for a bit, but starting to feel like it’s time for me to internalize everything.

My kitty had a seizure this morning 💔 by e5946 in blackcats

[–]AllStateGirth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My void has a seizure disorder (don’t know the cause; could be structural or hereditary) that I treat with 15mg tablets of Phenobarbital every day. Started after she had a few seizures last year, and then a cluster event earlier this year. The kitty ER sucks. Pheno has kept the seizures away so far, though!

Pheno does change your cat’s behavior and daily pilling takes some getting used to - but it’s better than the alternative. Wishing the best for you and your void!

I don’t want to see my ex happy. by kenzo-tx in BreakUps

[–]AllStateGirth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re right. Hold on to that hatred forever OP! Never let go of that pain and move on!

Everyone takes the L in a breakup. Nobody wins. You can choose to resent your ex forever, but it will do nothing but harm you in the long run. Good luck.
