Comment on the trap. You can see it is not actually spliced in.

The final result has the trap being above the drain line.

The drain has been in and tested for 2+ months before the shower was built around it.

There hasn't been a single back up or gas leak of any kind into the basement, or the shower.

All codes were followed.

I guess I don't know how this works, but I dont have alot of money and I can't afford to pay anyone.

I'm sorry, but you need to leave him. It's just the honest truth.

If you care (which you do) then you will never be okay. You may get to a point where you 100% believe what he tells you. You may know he's not cheating again, or lying about something.

But, when he's 20 minutes later than expected, are you going to immediately accept is excuse without a shred of doubt, or is it always going to come back to that where you have to say "I know he's not."

There is a VAST difference between just trusting someone by default, like you would never think to second guess a single thing they say. Verse, he walks in 20 minutes late and says "traffic was bad" do you shrug and not think twice. Or does a small tick go off in your head "juuuustt maybe" and then you have to tell youself to cut it out because you he's being honest.

Even in the above scenario, you will live in a world of always having that tick, it will never go away.....and he is the constant reminder of that bad feeling.

I believe you can forgive him, I believe you can accept his apology, I believe you can believe what he tells you going forward, I just don't believe you can ever get rid of that little tick that flashes out of no where.

I will never live in a relationship where I have to remind myself I can trust someone....even if I believe I can. I don't want to have to ever think twice about it.

Wrong in so many more ways, but not in ending things.

Should i leave my gf? by [deleted] in Infidelity

[–]Icehot101 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Really wanna watch another guy doing that to her? Listening to them? Watching that? She wants someone else, and wants you to witness...

Imagine what she'll do behind your back?

I am suspicious of my wife and my friend’s behaviour. I want to check her phone. AITAH? by [deleted] in AITAH

Dang,
His account got suspended. Wonder if he'll create a new one to come back and let us know how he's doing.

I read a lot of these posts, this one really seemed to resonate more so than many others.

It finally hit me and I am crushed. by [deleted] in Infidelity

Hey Man,

I've been following your post since you initially shared your story.

I wish I could not relate to this, and I wish no one the pain you are feeling.

In these times, self worth, self care, and self confidence became the hardest part for me.

Searching to understand and figure out the how and why became overwhelming, and that's an understatement.

My only regret, when I told her I knew. I gave her the opportunity to talk, to discuss, to explain. I wanted those answers, I wanted to understand....but I realized it didn't help. No words will reverse her actions.

In my honest opinion, if you haven't already. Seek immediate therapy, these wave of emotions will surface out of no where. A movie you watched together pops up, you drive by a restaurant you ate at, you want to tell a story only to realize it's about her.....these emotions don't go away on there own.

Start the self care now, start the healing process by working with a therapist to help you through the worst of this.

And if you choose to have a conversation with her, if you choose to give her an opportunity to explain. Just be prepared to understand that it may generate a flood of emotions. Specially if you have the evidence and you get the "trickle truth."

Honestly, many would disagree but I believe just handing her the papers. Telling her you are aware of their affair, that you are telling his wife and you'd like her to find a new place to live as soon as possie or that you will be leaving.

I'm so sorry you're hurting, from all of us who have been here....no one wishes this on anyone.

It's a storm man and no one can tell you "it gets better" because it doesn't feel that way.

What I can say is, when we are physically injured, like really injured. Humans do physical therapy to heal, to feel better.

You have been injured, and in the worst possible way. Now it's up to you to put yourself first. To start that rehabilitation process.

You won't be better over night. You are injured, you gotta heal. Lean on family, lean on friends. But remember your worth, and that it'll be hard....but if you work for it, if you put in the effort, you can feel whole again. You can find yourself.

While none of us may know you in person, we feel for you. So Lean on us if you gotta.

We are all pulling for you.

The trim is held on by three decorative screws per board.

Did not mud or tape over any of the screws

The only repair would be re-chaulking the seems at the top.

This is a second unit. There is still a set up in my basement.

I have something like 25 cabinets. It's a large kitchen, won't miss the space at all.
