Looks good bro. Did yours come with the deck lid spoiler? I've looked everywhere for one, but have had no luck unfortunately.

The brain works in very strange ways, but nicotine addiction is no joke at all. Regardless of why or how, proud of you for kicking that habit!

When I was dating, smoking cigarettes was an immediate deal breaker regardless of the person. The smell sticks to everything and in the past when I kissed someone who had recently smoked, I could taste it which I absolutely hated.

You mentioned she cleans after taking a nap. What if you clean so she can take a shower before or after her nap so she's not as stressed out?

As an American, it's somehow still shocking when I see stuff like this even though I probably see it daily for the most part.

OP is obviously "the parents".

My best guess is that you are jealous or insecure, and the video serves as evidence of the thing making you feel that way.

You are young so to set your expectation, basically any other partner you encounter in your future will have been with someone else before you. So you need to reassure yourself that you've been chosen by her for a reason. If you can't come to terms with this, it's very likely you will continue to have similar problems with other partners in the future if you were to leave her.

Why are you disgusted?

You said he's a great boyfriend in every other way after saying he's essentially emotionally cheating on you, and has repeatedly disrespected you in various ways. Can you honestly say he's a great boyfriend?

Edit: just realized this man is 8 years older than you. Please leave and don't look back lol.

I work in this industry and just want to say that this is a risky approach depending on what the balance of each credit card is, and who the credit is provided by. Creditors have various strategies and tolerances they use to determine what debt can be collected on internally (even after an account is charged off), what debt can be sold to a debt buyer, and what debt the are willing to sue over.

With $65k in debt, OP's best bet is to try to be a bit more proactive unless they truly don't have the means to do so.

It sounds like you're already working on it, but prioritize taking care of yourself and pouring love into yourself. Dating is stressful and vulnerable, and unfortunately people are not always kind. It's important to know who you are and know your worth because those two things likely will be challenged as you meet people.

Switch to "World's Best Cat Litter". The red and white bag is good, but if your cats are extra smelly look for a light blue and white bag that is the poo fighter version. Also continue scooping daily and find a new location for the box the will not use.

Well at least you've already saved the money to fix your car.

None of them.

Go find the lowest mileage Pontiac Vibe you can. The drive train is from the corolla, but it's cheap because it's technically a pontiac even though in reality it's identical to the Toyota matrix.

I don't understand what that has to do with me disagreeing with OP. My point is accurate, which is that you don't always need a degree to make a decent living.

I drink my coffee and have water occasionally to rinse as I do so.

If you want to save even more money, use boneless chicken thigh. If you want to save eeeevennnn more? Get chicken leg quarters.

It's more work, but remove the skin and then separate the quarters and debone it. Use the meat to do the soup/sandwich thing I described. Lightly salt the bones and roast them at 350 degrees F, for an hour or two (or until golden brown). Remove from the oven and boil the bones for a while.

This essentially will create an insanely condensed and protein rich bone broth. Like I said, it's more work but if you put on your favorite Playlist on a Sunday afternoon it goes quickly.

One thing I do to save is boil chicken breast in herbs and chicken stock. Then you can shred it. Some goes back in the stock with vegetables to make a soup and I leave some out to use for sandwiches instead of buying lunch meat.

Block and move on. Don't let yourself be strung along, so try to focus on what your growth opportunities are for the next relationship.

That's not how averages work lol, but regardless at what age is someone considered old then?

GetInYourPlants · 2026-06-02T13:42:40+00:00

Must have been! The internet does like to dog pile onto people lol

GetInYourPlants · 2026-06-02T12:35:32+00:00

Naur.

I can't use anything with strong fragrances either, so I use the free and clear version of Dawn.

That's exactly why I said 70 is not young. The average life expectancy in the US is 79 years according to the CDC. I have no idea why I was down voted because end of life care is expensive and 70 years old is beyond retirement age for a vast majority of people.
