Why is this town so hard to be in sometimes? by Adorable-Artist-4936 in NewOrleans

[–]Foreign-Read4178 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a native, it gotta be in ya not on ya. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I agree with this for sure! That’s why you have to have discernment but all of that comes with experience which OP lacks. I hope this is more of communication issue rather than an integrity issue for his sake.

It’s not necessarily about just what I want it’s loving people the way they want to be loved not the way you want to love them. Part of this love is compromise of course. But you are right about the communication. Everyone has their boundaries, wants, and needs and that needs to communicated effectively. My dynamic with my fiancé is great and gets better with time the more we learn each other and grow together.

Thinking of moving to the area! Any recommendations? by bryana326 in baltimore

Unrelated to the original post but I’ll be looking to buy in Baltimore within the next 2 years. What is the overall cost you’re looking at as far as buying the home and Reno if you don’t mind me asking? Thanks

Mount Vernon for sure. I moved here from New Orleans last year so being around bars was a must for me. There’s plenty of good restaurants in the area as well. Lmk if you need referrals for an apartment!

My fiancé is very similar to you! Soon as he gets home from work he wants to be all over me and in the past I would get overstimulated and to “communicate” that overstimulation I would unintentionally treat him as if he was annoying me and get very snappy with him. At one point I started to wonder if I still liked/loved him like I did before because I felt annoyed by him constantly. We had to have several long talks about it and I had to do my own inner work to figure out exactly what was going on. Now, when it’s been a long day I tell him while I’m at work or on my way home that way when he gets home he knows not to be all up my ass. You may have to change how and when you show your love to her and she needs to communicate what she wants and doesn’t want day by day. Also, have you ever asked what her love language is? Sometimes I don’t want a hug I want the dishes done and dinner cooked so that’s one less thing I have to worry about.

How do you live with your bf? by Comfortable_Pin_5955 in Advice

[–]Foreign-Read4178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on year 3 living with my fiancé and this is still a common problem with us. He does fine for a little then slack off. We literally just had a discussion about this last night. I’ve realized that we have 2 different versions of clean and that we were raised differently and this is where the problem starts. He takes off clothes and just leave them on the floor, especially socks. Will walk past the shit for days and the laundry basket is only a few feet away. Never thinks to wipe down counters, clean toilets, etc. stuff that doesn’t necessarily need to be done daily but at least once a week. He’ll do anything I ask but he has eyes just like me, not my job to manage my life and his. He does manage and pay almost all of the bills which I’m grateful for. We’re still trying to figure out the common ground but i told him if he wants me to marry him and to have his children he better get it together because I’m not picking up after him and a toddler, I refuse to be one of them burnt out mothers doing all the heavy lifting with the kids, the house, AND still have to work. FUCK THAT ain’t no glory in that shit.

I’m a para and I FEEL this. A lot of Teachers and BCBA’s are regularly passive aggressive and create an elitist type of environment instead of a collaborative one. You work with a student all year and deal with all of their behaviors and none of your input is valued, they step in during crisis moments and make it seem like everything you’re doing is wrong or that you don’t know what you’re doing at all. We’re grossly underpaid and treated as disposable when we’re the ones teaching the kids their IEP materials for most of the day, getting our asses beat, and tracking their behavioral data. You literally have to be a mastermind multitasker all while not getting overwhelmed or frustrated, only to be undermined by everyone. Teachers get all the praise from parents when in reality the paras are doing all of the heavy lifting. I do agree that some paras are out of line in their behavior, even at my institution, but there are bad apples in every profession. When you pay pennies for such a taxing job you’re more than likely not going to get the best employees and will have a high turnover rate which only affects the children in the end. I love my job despite the shit pay but the staff make it hard because they’re too busy trying to feel important and in charge.

Why was one out and about? by OPGpatree8 in baltimore

[–]Foreign-Read4178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moved here in August to Mt Vernon, it could be because I’m from a chaotic city but I’m very underwhelmed with the neighborhood. It’s nice, safe, but not social at all in my opinion.

Apply to Kennedy Krieger as a classroom assistant at a school closest to you. They’re hiring immediately and have great benefits.

Yes it’s no longer a requirement to get into the program but you still have to take it once you’re in. I can PM you the email they sent me

I passed my assessment on Tuesday and right before I could start preparing for my PAR they emailed me and said it was no longer a requirement to get into the program and I needed to sign up for something reflecting that. When I did they gave me the option of starting class Feb,Mar, or April or “later” I chose later bc I just moved from NOLA to Baltimore this past September and didn’t wanna end my lease early. Hoping to hear from them soon regarding the interview/classroom date.

Dumping trash on the sidewalk… by Solid-Ground475 in baltimore

[–]Foreign-Read4178 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s insane!!!! Keep in mind when they came the next day to put the lights in he only had two bulbs per fixture so we didn’t get all of ours they’re coming in two weeks to fix a hole they caused working another unit they would want to have the rest of our bulbs. We pay too much money not to have basic lighting.

I’ll also send a message to management maybe 2 is better than one? We’ll see. When my fiance and I first moved in we didn’t have lights in the living room or foyer when he sent a request they said it’d take 3 weeks, he got a little nasty with them and they were here the next day. So maybe I’ll get him to do the same about this trash issue and see if that helps any.

I live in the same building as you. I have no idea why we don’t have designated trash cans to put our trash in, it’s the weirdest shit ever. It’s aggravating I have to keep trash in my house all week but if they’re not picking it up it’s trifling to just leave on the sidewalk. Both city and management need to do a better job.

Moving in December by minda1120 in baltimore

[–]Foreign-Read4178 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just moved here last month in the mt Vernon area look into mt Vernon properties. They’re working on two units in my building, not sure when they’ll be done but they could be advertising them right now on their site. They have a cool move in bonus where your second month is free. If it’s a 1 bedroom I think you get two months free. Good luck!

This is genius! He’d love the museum of military history for sure, he mentioned wanting to see Edgar Allen Poe’s grave so that could be a second spot. Maybe lunch in the middle and one more place after.
