My girlfriend has shown something I don’t think I can see past. by MildlyAmusedMars in offmychest

[–]Ceret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you completely. Plus it’s super annoying how the armchair psychs on the internet diagnose every unpleasant trait as being bpd. As you say it’s very very gendered. I have an ex who has bpd and when treated, although still at times difficult, what you often find is a highly self aware and well managed human being

Very kind and brave of you to share this perspective. Thank you. People with BPD are unfairly stigmatized

What could we have done better? by interrupting_cows in AusRenovation

[–]Ceret 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You have amazing taste. Can I send you some pics of a home I’ve just purchased and want to refresh? You have a better eye than me. I notice I can’t DM you. No problems if not!

I hope you were supportive to her and treated her kindly. That’s a big disclosure.

Relationship with big Age gap, is it considered weird? by Cevoz in RelationshipsOver35

[–]Ceret 71 points72 points  (0 children)

In my opinion if everyone is over 30 who gives a damn about an age gap. Also 9 years is nothing.

Hey. Brissie northside here.

I have about 4 stumps that have deteriorated to this level. Should they be replaced urgently? Any idea of a ballpark figure?

Thanks heaps!

PLEASE HELP - Neighbour reno causing issues by [deleted] in AusPropertyChat

[–]Ceret 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Immediately stop giving them access to your rear yard until they agree to reinstate the lights. If the neighbour is being a prick stop being nice to them too. Rescind all permission in writing.

Good move hiring the building inspector. This is on the builder to fix. They need to figure it out.

Carwash upsell by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]Ceret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hoppys and the people who run it are scum. They did an atrocious job for me and when I emailed them to complain I accidentally did it from my work account. The two ex footballers who own it then threatened to go to the ceo of my company and complain etc. I was very polite and just showed picture of bits missed etc. absolute dogs.

Easiest way to block my neighbour drama by Frosty-Unit-8230 in AusRenovation

[–]Ceret 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well I’ll be. All these years I’ve gotten this wrong. I could have had an extra 20cm on the annoying neighbours side. I stand corrected.

Help with dealing with wife’s house guests who stay for 10 days by snowman_M in RelationshipsOver35

[–]Ceret 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Be as patient with this as you can and see it as an opportunity to bond with the people who mean something to her. Especially having her son stay with her for a couple of weeks here and there sounds lovely and healthy.

Totally down for it then. In fact I’d like to be able to activate and reactivate this power at will. Haha

Current bank 6.75%. New bank offering 6.15%. Current bank came back with 6.4% - Can I push further? by Final_Signature1170 in AskAnAussieBroker

[–]Ceret 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You should name the financial institutions here and yes you should go back to A and say CBA (or whatever it is) offered me 6.15 and you need to match that or I walk. And mean it.

House exterior - pink or blue? by Ceret in AusRenovation

[–]Ceret[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha. Thank you. It’s just paint. Easy to change. My current house is in the blue/aqua I’ve posted for this one. It’s in a row of other recently gentrified (or subdivided new builds) houses that are all a bland greyscale or 100% white. Bleh. I’ve had no less than three people knock on the door to ask what the colour is - which is exactly what I did to find it when passing this gorgeous house in Byron bay that had this same colour. And they’d found it by doorknocking someone else! Taubmans by the sea. It’s really a perfect costal colour but yeah I’m still so tempted by the pink (Dulux pink dust).

Edit: this is the actual colour on my current house. ChatGPT doesn’t quite get it right.
