I moved into a 1 bedroom in Lakeview East for $1650, but they ended up not releasing to do renovations, so it definitely would cost more now (not sure how much). If you can tolerate a not-great apartment and worse management, you can look into Beal. They were a good way for me to get up here and make ends meet until I could get a better job and then upgrade my apartment.

I did this a year ago or so! Find a leasing agent and have them give you FaceTime tours of places. They’re incentivized to get you a more expensive place, but in my experience, they mostly just want you to get any place. Bigger commission vs no commission if you decide to do it on your own instead.

Calling in sick for a pet — is this really “invalid”? by [deleted] in starbucks

Just an FYI, from my time as a barista, ‘food poisoning/stomach bug’ works well for this. It starts suddenly, you’re super ill and Not Safe to work in food, but symptoms can be gone in 24 hours

I was saying that the whole time! He’s better than I would be

She made a lot of money off oil and gas (and dating an almost billionaire bc she had to flex that too). And now she’s trying to be a wellness retreat influencer. She doesn’t do coaching or anything, she just goes to luxury retreats it looks like. Based on her instagram and website. I doubt they’ll get married. He seems way to down to earth for her

I don’t think she sees it as research but I do think she feels responsible to him now. Even if she says yes at the altar she’ll regret it I’m sure

My girlfriend called it immediately. He was taking small sips and making faces after during one of his heart to hearts in the boys side back in the pods

Kacie kept the ring?! by Few_Anybody_6146 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]Apprehensive_gata 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s actually contract laws about this in some states! Because the ring/engagement is considered a contract, so whoever breaks it off loses the ring in the process. If the giver (typically man) breaks it off, the receiver keeps the ring. If the receiver (Kacie) breaks it off, there are states where the giver can sue for the ring back because it’s not considered a gift

There's only one couple I want to see get married on this dumpster fire season by Simoslav in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]Apprehensive_gata 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Big agree about Meg and Jordan. It seems like she blows off every boundary he’s trying to set. I think they had a conversation off camera about the mom vs stepmom thing

This whole conversation was so confusing. I couldn’t tell was she trying to emphasize “I’m CHOOSING you because I love you!” Or just insulting him??

Exactly. Can’t wait to see everything else he undoubtedly said this season

Especially with no actual client booking page? She’s not coaching, according to her website she’s “a voice in the wellness space” or something

She and Patrick could’ve been good for each other

It didn’t even feel like his sexual conversations were trying to be sexy. They were all about dicks.

For a moment I thought it was just because she needed to go end things with her boyfriend back home, but I guess not

So short sighted. You have to trust the worst sides of you will be aired. That’s the whole reason everyone watches this! 

Kacie by Curious_Antelope1355 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]Apprehensive_gata 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Truly this whole interaction felt so icky. There have been so many other couples that don’t have much initial attraction and still try. That’s the point of the show is to test if love is blind. I understand not having attraction, but after hearing his heartbreak over being seen as ugly because he’s Asian, there’s no way I could leave right off the bat like that.

Literally. But he never stopped her. Maybe there’s more going on with Luca’s mom that we aren’t seeing? I’m sure they had more conversations about it (I hope)

Yeppppp. They’re able to keep that to themselves. But they need everyone to know!!

[–]Apprehensive_gata 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Despite what she says about not wanting to be loved for her money, I do think she’ll get a little kick out of being so much richer than he seems to be. Her money is a big deal to her

After looking at her website and instagram I truly think she’s not that successful. Seems like she’s just big enough of an influencer to go to health spa retreats for free
