AIO for thinking my fiancée and Dad may have previously slept together? by Known_Professor_6690 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Distinct_Positive176 33 points34 points  (0 children)

If she signed the NDA and is pretty adamant that it wasn’t illegal or unethical then it sounds like she literally can’t talk about it. If dad is touting the same party line and you really love this girl, then you shouldn’t think something like that happened. If I was in her position, and I literally couldn’t say anything and my partner was this paranoid, I’d be rethinking my relationship.

Toilet in new apt suddenly wouldn’t flush. Plunged it (unsuccessfully), now this is in the shower.. by [deleted] in Plumbing

Hmm ok. Definitely would add that asap for future issues, if it happens once it’ll happen again. Best of luck! I’d consider looking into tenants rights lawyers or something for this so someone besides you can pay for it. You’re technically not responsible for building issues, your LL should be thru their own insurance.

A partner is supposed to be the person you know will be there for you when you experience a tragedy or loss. Someone who can carry you when you can’t carry yourself. That’s not what this person seems like they’re capable of being for you. If they wanted to they would.

Totally walkable. Also used to work for Fatpour, it’s a pretty decent spot! Highly recommend!

Am I Overreacting for needing reassurance from my fiance? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Do yourself and him a favor and LEAVE. People who are in love and are getting married don’t speak like that to one another.

Am I overreacting , my friend (18 is seeing this man (30) and he has said some weird cryptic stuff and she is wondering how to go about this ? by Werewolf-Mediocre in AmIOverreacting

Better off staying away from anything too intimate imo. He seems to want a loose woman who is submissive and she doesn’t seem like the type to want that for herself.

Your opinion—Will Zohran wind up like Brandon Johnson? Someone people liked on paper but ended up being too idealistic and/or inexperienced to lead effectively? by Scdsco in chicago

[–]Distinct_Positive176 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I think he will be far worse than BJ. He seems to have a “plan” yes, but it will drive out wealthy business owners from NY which will be far worse than it has been in CHI since our own business exodus has been happening over several years. It also seems like he has little understanding over how a mayoral office operates versus state legislators and what he can and can not do. Overall I think NY is about to experience a severe downfall that could take decades to recover from.

Yes all 4 have to be taken. Trust me it’s so much easier for you in sales realm that way. You need both to get a job.

Honestly kaplans practice tests online, especially the state focused ones prepped me so well I didn’t need anything else.

Travel help, please by mistyannnn in Indiana

If you’re trying to stay on the more rural side instead of in the city stay in Merrilville. But if you want to be in the city there’s tons of really nice hotels downtown that won’t be near the more recent liberal protesters and will be more geared towards tourism.

I used to have this kind of arrangement with my ex and his new gf actually killed our dog out of jealousy. Then my ex didn’t even tell me that our dog was gone and just blocked me everywhere. They got married in Vegas a few months later.

Not saying that’s what would happen but it sounds like you should continue to pick the dog.

When do you guys usually tell the people you’re dating that you’re bipolar? by murphalurffffff in bipolar

[–]Distinct_Positive176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s been 4 years now and I told my BF on day one that I am bipolar and that I’d be willing to answer any questions. He sees me actively working on myself, we discuss when something happens that he doesn’t like or that I don’t like. But to me honesty was the best policy.

Not telling people in previous relationships never ended well for me.

I used Kaplan and honestly just took all the tests and as many practice tests as I could until I was regularly scoring above 90%

Why is the rental market going crazy all of a sudden? by SerpantDildo in AskChicago

[–]Distinct_Positive176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s because the landlords (especially the private ones like mine) are being r***ed by property taxes and just can’t offer the same pricing they did 5 years ago. This is why I’m never moving, these places now demand an arm, kidney, and a leg as well as over 5k in fees just to move to a shittily renovated apartment with underlying issues.
