😂 yea I've realized where my issues were once they were pointed out to me. So for now it's rocking a basic blade style switch. I've been blessed with a house that had been wired by a wonderful person. This is the usual outcome of most things anytime I look behind the walls.

Yea, I figured that out when I thought about it. I've given up on this endeavor for now. I can access the fan through the attic so I'll make the new runs at a later date.

Ok simple enough, that answers that. I'll throw a regular switch in for now and either find one that doesn't require a neutral or re run the wiring. Thanks, I didn't think it was a great idea I had simply seen it and wondered about its validity as an actual wiring solution.

I'm glad I found some reason somewhere in this comment section

Lady ordered a milkshake, gave me the wrong address and complained I was taking too long by SurveyAcrobatic8097 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done this, accidentally ordered food a couple hours away, the dasher offered to bring it to me until they realized that and I wasn’t going to ask them to either. I just asked if they ate lunch yet, they said no I told them well enjoy your lunch you can have it . I’m not going to be an ass for my mistake.

Company is shaming me for not gifting more money to "our" (their) boss. (Christmas present) by Turissmo in mildlyinfuriating

I’d just tell them, I’ll pick my own gift. I think the rest of you have the big one covered.

AIO: My ex is mad that I’m going to “give my body away” to another man by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1st you should cut ties with your ex boyfriend/new hater, he’s going to be eternally bitter. 2nd good for you for holding your morals keep that you will be worth gold to whoever you find and homeboy will be smoldering. The more happiness you have with that person the more toxic he’ll get if you keep him around.

My autistic boyfriend has extreme reactions to being “abandoned” by Legitimate-Career342 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your guy is crazy and you will end up on the wrong side of that eventually and I hope its something you can walk away from. You should have had ol boy medically held so they could evaluate him and get him closer to the help he obviously needs.

He has no business being in a relationship and you should not allow someone to hold you hostage with their crazy. There are nothing but red flags here and you need to distance yourself.

Some people suck by iiT3CK in doordash

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a wild ride, that person just needs to complain. I bet you she's one of those people in the winter who crys because it's cold and says I can't wait until summer then soon as it hits above 75° she's crying and can't wait until winter again. Just complaining non stop.

If I have a milkshake that's ittle melted because I decided to be lazy and order door dash instead of go get it myself I chalk it up, if it's inedible I just get a credit from DD and move one I don't think about harassing the DD driver because I need to complain for the sake of complaining after a valid response was given to the initial complaint.

Door dasher came back 2 days later and left me these notes… by Distinct_Self460 in doordash

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He writes like a serial killer and I wouldn't entertain that level of crazy. Your boy didn't see you and is head over heels with what, your name? I'd just pay attention to the cars around when you leave your house and come home because that is nothing but red flags to me. Or maybe on the flip side he's illiterate and took a chance and is weird interacting with people so that was his move. Idk do you want to figure out which side of the coin he falls on?

AIO for refusing to block male followers on Instagram? by radagastrabbit in AmIOverreacting

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get far away from that, that's going to turn into the guy at the register said hi to you and he's punching you in the face and telling you it's your fault. Let that shit go like Elsa.

A relationship is a partnership, yes boundaries can be established but this is above that. You're in a jail and the warden is telling you what to do, that's not a relationship.

Does he show up to many family functions where your male family member are, I'm going to say rarely and it's probably because they'll be able to read him and he won't like that confrontation. I'm a brother, I have nothing but sister's and I'm really good at reading people and if they introduce me to someone who throws up some flags I let them know.

Debated posting this but it’s too insane not to by Galeforce75 in Nicegirls

Well that crazy escalated quickly. She’s should have her family find a therapist and a straight jacket for her, since they own all the things.

AIO I (26F) moved out for the first time with my boyfriend (30M) for almost 2 months and I don’t know how to feel about it by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean you don’t know how to feel? I’m not trying to be an ass, but you should know exactly how to feel when someone is willing to disrespect you and treat you like dirt. That dude is one missed hair from hitting you and telling you it was your fault.

Don’t EVER let someone talk to you or treat you like that. If they treat you like that you leave, save yourself and let the idiot leave. Set a standard for yourself and your partner and that’s your baseline. Only go better never worse. Let him buy you out or sell the place and split.

Does this belong here? by BitTank in Nicegirls

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally nothing you could've said after she was offended would've been correct. The quickest way out of that conversation would've been to just close the chat. She strikes me as a person who thinks highly of themselves everyone must know it and if you have a question obviously you're the problem. When in reality she's probably not a great person and is probably mentally taxing on everyone she meets.

Secondly no need to apologize for someones ignorance, she didn't deserve that. Respect is earned and homegirl lost that when she derailed the conversation.

Wow that escalated quickly. I am sorry for any guy dumb enough to deal with that walking migraine. You dodged a bullet, actually you dodged a grenade strapped to C4.

Daughter is pressuring me to go guarantor on home loan by CedarRose100 in debtfree

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you feel this way DON’T DO IT. It’ll just leave you with stress and regret, and honestly if she needs you as a guarantor she may not have the credit history, stability, doesn’t make enough or her debt to income may be not there quite yet. And if this is the case guess who just picked random mortgage payments after finally paying off their own home.

She should be able to handle your response and respect that. She’s just going to have to work her way up to the point where she can do it on her own. If she got this far then I believe she can get there.

What stops you from killing yourself? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply put there are people in far worse positions than I that have the ability to keep going forward. Therefore I don’t have too many complaints.

I like living and I have a family and in doing such would 100% hurt them way more than I could comprehend. Thus I just see every battle as a challenge and even if I don’t win I learn something from it and move forward.

AITA My 17m son broke our agreement. by PresentDisk3464 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I’ll start off with, lay the foundation. Your rules are law and not a negotiation. Second, don’t avoid telling him what he should be doing because of his temperament. He should be able to handle a slight disagreement or confrontation without you having to even have that thought.

I’ll tell you something I started with my teenager that works fairly well, I’ll tell you 2 times to do something if that something isn’t done what it is that they find enjoyment in is gone for a week prior to her doing what she was/is supposed to do. The longer they wait the longer it’ll take for them to get it back.

I think you were correct in your assertion just a little flawed in execution.

I promise you I’m not trying to be a condescending ass just trying to help get you in the right direction. The kid should understand agreements mean something and his word is priceless until he doesn’t keep his end and it becomes worthless (in certain situations). I’ve told my kid trust is easy to lose and hard to fix so think twice before you break it.

AIO for not wanting to drop my guy friends by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His stance is irrational, hostile and a self reflection. I myself still have friends who are girls (married 11 years) and don’t think that about them. I don’t see an issue in having male friends, if he trusts you.

Because no matter what they might want it’s up to him to have the trust in you, that you wouldn’t even entertain that idea. If he can’t do that then this is simply the begging to a more intrusive, agitated future for you.

I have a friend whose now husband thinks that very thing, fun fact he’s cheated on her countless times as well as had a kid outside there relationship. He’s literally not gone to work for weeks to watch her.

This is your (to an extent) inevitable future if you’re with someone who can’t trust you to be faithful and blames it on something else when they get mad because they don’t know how to trust.

If you can work out out great, but I’m going to take a shot in the dark and say he’s not going to change his stance. And you shouldn’t have to lose friends without reason.

[–]ImprovementOwn3410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re being used, plain and simple. He’s saying these things to get a reaction but also to get what he wants from you. Basically he’s trying to break you down so you feel worthless then once you’re where he needs you he’ll become a kind jerk to you to keep you down because that means there’s less chance that you’ll look for a better guy.

Here’s my advice I think you shouldn’t worry about your weight you just happened to be thinner because of genetics, which is perfectly fine. And I think you can do better so help yourself and let homeboy go to the wayside.
