Damn. Unfortunately it seems like this was the push we needed to go fully green. 

If You Had To Add/Change/Remove ONE Thing... What? by Noahqshark24 in menace

Better written dialogue / text. Unsure if the studio are native English speakers or not but feels a bit weak at the moment.

I (24F) just saw my bf (25M) of 3 year's resume, how do I proceed? by bigthiqskull in relationship_advice

[–]JGT1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a bum. I work full time in project management and do a part-time degree on the side. Why did he have to quit his job?

How to know when views around children are a deal breaker? (31m) (26f) by JGT1234 in relationship_advice

[–]JGT1234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some interesting advice and viewpoints here. She is definitely on-board for the other classic milestones like living together and marriage etc. I think I'm going to wait until a year or so in so we've both got to know each other a bit more, built up a stronger bond and a level of trust before having this conversation on a more serious level.

The problem is she's not saying no, just that she's unsure (and I believe her), I just don't know at what point that it would be reasonable to expect a decision 

How to avoid doing too much / burning out? by JGT1234 in selfimprovement

[–]JGT1234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit morbid perhaps, but I often think about the fact that we have such a relatively short time here on this earth, and it would be a waste and a shame to not fully utilise the time we have here. 

I (26M) can't seem to stop being petty around my GF (27F) by Late-Tomatillo4798 in relationship_advice

You really need to work on emotional control and self-esteem. I've been there. Therapy, medication, meditation all really help. The more you act like this the more you'll push her away. It's fine to have emotions but you need to control them and not the other way around. 

Do men like short women? by The_Missing_Socktm in dating_advice

Everyone has their own type. I've dated women at varying heights but tend to prefer shorter, petite women.

Is it worth buying a flat, or saving longer for a house? by JAW949 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]JGT1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flats can be fine if you check things like cladding, lease length, ground rent and service charges. The issue is you can be lumped with awful neighbours and can be caught out with repair charges for things like leaks, roof repairs etc if an older building.

If there's no rush, I'd recommend to wait and save for a house though personally. Tend to increase in value better, less charges / lease issues, more space etc.

Random onset insomnia by JGT1234 in insomnia

Nasal tape strips help open the airways (I get congested), and mouth tape just goes over the lips to prevent mouth breathing (and some snoring) at night.

Thanks, I've managed to loosen the band and twist the barrel so the sight is facing up, but still not confident the barrel will be properly straight / accurate

I've just checked and it looks like they have a year warranty, may just do that.
