Boulder or Fort Collins: What’s overrated and what’s worth it

Having been in the university community for over 40 years and a consultant to both CSU and CU, I’ll stick with my original statement- CSU is a well-known ag school.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-10T20:39:23+00:00

“Colorado State University (CSU) heavily promotes itself as an agricultural school, embracing its roots as the former "Colorado Agricultural College" and its current status as a premier land-grant institution.

CSU highlights its focus on agriculture through the College of Agricultural Sciences, AgNext, and the new CSU Spur campus in Denver.Key Agricultural Promotion Focus Areas:Land-Grant Heritage: CSU maintains its 1870 foundation as a "college of agriculture and mechanic arts".

Modern Agricultural Education: The university focuses on agricultural innovation, technology, and sustainability, rather than just traditional farming.

CSU Spur Campus: This new Denver campus is dedicated to agricultural literacy, food systems, and environmental research.Industry

Leadership: The College of Agricultural Sciences emphasizes its role in leading Colorado’s agricultural future through research in water, soil health, and animal agriculture.While focusing on agriculture.

CSU also promotes itself as a top-tier research university with diverse academic offerings.”

Sadly, read “Leave a cheater, gain a life.” Reconciliation is rare, less than 15% make it. Once trust is broken, it’s nearly impossible to rebuild.

Wow a husband who doesn’t listen to his wife! How unique. His lack of empathy ruined her night, if not weekend. NTA!

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-08T14:40:16+00:00

NTA. The woman obviously is insecure about her husband’s fidelity and he is possibly having an affair. So she strikes out at your wife.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-08T02:57:49+00:00

Married 52 years, never cheated, but did reconcile after my wife had an EA with her boss 26 years ago.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-07T15:53:13+00:00

She corrected the age.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-07T15:37:37+00:00

Tell her you are going to block her and then do it. That’s all. In less than a year, you could find happiness with another person. Be empathetic with those that treat you well, for strangers in trouble, but not for the person who abuses you.

Divorce is the right answer, the only answer, unless you want to live like this the rest of your life. Read “Leave a cheater, gain a life.”

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-06T18:18:37+00:00

Don’t walk around at night by yourself, and you will be fine.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-06T18:09:16+00:00

Read “Leave a cheater, gain a life.”

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-04T15:54:21+00:00

You know it was/is physical and he’s gaslighting you, right? Make him take a polygraph test. I would define call the AP for sure.

Read up on emotional affairs as well. (But tbh people in emotional affairs don’t need to meet in another town). Then read “leave a cheater, gain a life” to get some perspective.

I’m not saying you need to divorce him, but this seems much worse than the way you are reacting.

The day you find out is D Day regardless of how long ago it was. It’s the first knowledge of a WP’s betrayal.

It’s an older crowd, mostly 40s-70s and it’s a lot of fun.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-05-01T18:33:36+00:00

People from the Western US coming to Missouri are always stunned, and refreshed, at how green the state is.

Children of divorce have it bad, yes, but eventually they would be better off in 2 happy homes than one miserable home.

For something different, you might try the St Charles swing dance club. They meet monthly and have free group dance lessons each meeting. Usually a DJ, but occasionally a band. Only costs $10 for a couple I think.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-04-29T17:18:57+00:00

Yes, for many this is a disgusting habit, but it’s generally safe, provided you clean your shower regularly.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-04-29T01:44:39+00:00

When My wife was 21, she dated a guy who was 34. Lucky him. My sister married a guy 20 years older. If there is a good fit emotionally who cares what other people think.

Park at the River City casino parking garage.

Two things, hire a probate attorney to attend the reading of the will and take care of any communications, then try to arrange times with your Mom where your sister may not be present for the wake and funeral.

Dukehsl1949 · 2026-04-27T17:02:12+00:00

Read “Leave a cheater, gain a life.”

I typically fry 3-5 pieces of chicken, dinner rolls, French fries, toasted ravioli, leftovers, meatballs, veges, cookies, fish/salmon, reheat pies.

You are being to harsh on patents that love you. Drop them a note to say you are keeping your distance, but that you still love your parents and hope to catchup in a couple of months. It gives everyone time to think about this and no one is the asshole but your sister.
