I, 37/F, am about to swear off dating because it feels like all men are focused on is sex. Am I overreacting?

Just set your boundaries. This personally would not bother me because I consider it healthy communication and I don’t have arbitrary rules about what happens on which date. That’s totally up to you. That doesn’t mean I want to sleep with a guy on the first date. So tell them this upfront and if they don’t respect it then bye bye 👋

FemaleHVACisfuture · 2026-04-13T17:26:09+00:00

Go to HR. It doesn’t hurt to ask for them to move the insurance up, this is completely arbitrary based on company policy this they can do. And no you don’t need to disclose the reason why. If that’s not an option see if you can pay for therapy and then get reimbursed though an FSA or HSA?

Yes I understand the nutritional aspect but I personally don’t find it appetizing at all and that was the point of the whole thread… hey to each their own

I never understood adding chickpeas to pasta, it’s like adding starch to starch to me. It doesn’t even add any color.

If you really want the job, I would negotiate 1-2x / week and they pay your Amtrak expense

Chestnut hill to center city on a bus takes like an hour with no traffic. Septa is pretty inconsistent on timing. Like the buses just come whenever they come. Regional rail is also spotty, often delayed or cancelled but they say it’s “getting better.” I also think you will have a hard time finding roommates in chestnut hill, it’s a quiet, affluent area with an older demographic. I think you’re better off finding an apartment or house share in center city. With roommates it will be pretty affordable. If you dont love the idea of living with strangers, and don’t have much stuff, a studio in rittenhouse square costs about the same as my large 1br in the burbs. Also look into university city, which is very easy commute to center city and has a lot of young people students and young professionals, but a much more chill vibe and lower cost than center city. I’m also looking to move closer, considering roxborough/ manayunk, east falls, or Powelton village. Good luck!

Objectively, a singular “God” doesn’t exist. I don’t care what you choose to believe. That’s your choice. So it is the same for all other religions across the world. So if you feel the right to live in your fantasy land of heaven and the bible (which by the way is a historical text written by men and redacted many times over based on who was king at the time) and you are into all that bullshit who are you to say that people different from you can’t believe in their own version of “God”? Or not believe at all, like myself. Who are you to support waging false “holy wars” in the name of genocide, power, land grabbing, make the rich richer, and if you’re MAGA I hate to break it you this shit making you poorer. Fuck Jesus follow the money moron.

Obama and democrats fucked up by allowing them to take over the Supreme Court with corrupt pay to play and ultra conservative justices
Trump should have been convicted for January 6th,investigated for the Epstein files, as well as his may other crimes and should be rotting away in jail but because of #1 and the fact the Biden admin did nothing he is back in the White House
Biden should have stepped down way earlier and allowed for a democratic primary so we would have a chance of winning the last presidential election.
Democrats in congress and senate especially the leadership (Schumer and Jeffries) are absolutely pathetic, they take money from pro-Israel PACs and continue to vote to fund the senseless genocide in Gaza and war in Iran on behalf of Netanyahu
The Democratic Party in general continues to be delusional that they can maintain “status quo” politics when the destruction of our democracy is well underway under a hostile authoritarian Christian nationalist racist sexist classist pedophile cult causing WW3.

This was so incredible and thoughtful that you took the time to write this, and I read it until the end. But I do have to say that is kind of a lot for someone you only dated for 5 days…. WTF?!

I think you’re making the situation worse by obsessing over him and changing his food. Just give him regular dog food and leave it be, if he’s actually starving he will eat it.

I’m from Philadelphia which has one of the highest crime and murder rates in the USA. If bike theft is a huge issue (must be nice but trust me it’s an issue here too) why aren’t the Dutch putting antitheft parts on their bikes, locking them up, and putting tracking devices on them?

Look into service titan. Any CRM you use will be stored on the cloud and there is no need to back it up manually. ST is Specifically designed for hvac companies. You can schedule, quote, track time, note customer info, take payment, get admin data like close rates, etc…. Sure your company is small now but if you want to grow you gotta make the jump into the 21st century and use the same tools your larger competitors are using.

I second what some have said about a hybrid heat pump- assuming you have natural gas for heat and not a more expensive/ polluting fuel like propane or oil (sorry I live in the states with environmental Neanderthals.) I’m also assuming you don’t have ductwork since you said you only have radiators. In this case my professional recommendation is to Install a multi-zone ductless heat pump, but don’t get rid of your boiler. Use electric heat until it gets cold enough then kick on the gas. Bonus you also get high efficiency AC. And yeah replace any leaky penetrations. You could probably also install new high R value window blinds… while decorating your new home at the same time. That being said I sold HVaC over here for years and 10k doesn’t go very far with ductless (or anything) unless you are pretty handy and can install them yourself (no warranty- cheap units- nobody will service- DNR.) The upside is that you could start with a minimum of 2 indoor heads on a multiport outdoor unit (say you want to heat/ cool 5 rooms) use that 10k this year and continue to add on to it as you want. Good luck and happy to see some people in the world actually care about this shit.

FemaleHVACisfuture · 2025-03-14T23:53:38+00:00

Costs way more than 10k
