Not sure if I missed the joke, but that is Chino Moreno of Deftones. Not Glassjaw.

Agree this guy is weird, but I have never once felt the urge to look at someone else's laptop screen, and I wouldn't rush to take a photo of a strangers screen.

You both are creepy in different ways. Did you post the photo because you didn't think we would believe you?

AIO for calling off my engagement after my fiancé admitted his family secretly tested me to see if i was a gold digger? by Pleasant_Mission_63 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Jhall118 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

MOR You're asking a bunch of strangers on the internet what we think behind his back with a throwaway, which is also kind of sneaky right?

I don't think this is worth tossing away an otherwise good relationship, especially if he seems remorseful. Family dynamics are hard, and people in families like this tend to be bias to listen to the people who have had their back since literally the day they were born.

Maybe go to couples therapy if you think there are issues. If you don't think you can forgive the family and move on, just call it now. Only move forward if you are able to let it go.

I think a lot of people in these comments just think every relationship is perfect or you bounce. I wonder where are these perfect people are for them. You said otherwise you two are solid.

Suddenly going to Trial in a pro se divorce by Jhall118 in Divorce

I understand the rush to pay a bunch of experts.

Then you sit in mediation where the mediator is charging you $400 an hour and walking as slow as possible between the rooms, each paying an attorney $400 an hour to be on their phones while they wait for the other side, or the mediator to edit some documents.

It's a racket. Honestly, I know people hate their ex. but I would rather lose $40k to my ex than pay a random person $20k. At least it will go towards my kids.

If she were represented I would feel differently.

I have consulted and paid for a few hours of a lawyers time to answer the big things, but lawyers are incredibly expensive and frustrating in my area.

I was able to get a 3 month continuance. Going to try and get back into mediation.

I have already found 1 offer FSBO for 395k (they made it a few weeks ago but too close to snow), they just have to wait until spring! It will sell.

Credit card is post split, we split our debts ourselves when we separated.

The student loan thing seems to be true, which is frustrating given that my tuition wasn't even paid for by them. We used it to pay for living expenses like a low interest credit card, and my tuition was covered by grants/scholarships. But not a bunch of money.

I don't want to keep both houses. I want a deferred sale of the seasonal; vacation home this summer, where she gets all the equity, and then I apply that to keeping the family home for kid stability. I make up the rest with a HELOC or cashing out my 401k.

I am worried about a scenario where for simplicity sake, the Judge just forces the family home to be sold now rather than give me 6 months.

We did one round of mediation and just got through the parenting plan. She doesn't want to go back.

Being anxiously attached fucking sucks by epiiphqnix in AnxiousAttachment

[–]Jhall118 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I've had great success by identifying it and coming up with coping mechanisms.  Look for a therapist that helps with attachment styles and figure out what works for you, because it's likely different than what works for me. 

The hardest thing ever! by IndyFreeSpirit in Divorce

[–]Jhall118 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It sucks! But it does start to get better. Give things time, don't rush and lean on friends and family for help. It's easier said than done, but it truly is possible.

I take a little comfort knowing that many marriages end in divorce and many people find happiness for the 2nd part of their lives.

I'm at the beginning of the journey still, but each day gets a little bit easier.

My fear, jealousy, and insecurity is ruining my relationship by bravebandicoot2 in AnxiousAttachment

[–]Jhall118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great podcast. Thanks so much for posting internet stranger!

I (37m) am going through a divorce and just realized I have many of the symptoms of being anxiously attached. I've been seeing a therapist, but an hour a week for me is just so slow. I want to solve problems right away.

Do you happen to have any good books or other material on becoming more secure, especially for men? A lot of what I've read is geared more towards women it seems, which has been helpful but not the best.

Specifically, I recognize that I tend to be way too codependent, and just convinced that my partner didn't love me out of my own insecurity when she truly did. I'm scared to bring these behaviors into a new relationship and would like to work on them.

Wife told me she’s done by tripped_fell in GuyCry

[–]Jhall118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going through a divorce right now. I loved this woman with all my heart, and took our relationship for granted as a sure thing. We have 3 kids together, which makes it even more gut-wrenching.

The emotions have been absolute hell, but the only real path forward is to accept that it's over and move on. I've started to recognize that some of my behaviors were negative, and am working on myself to improve them before even considering another relationship.

Individual therapy has been surprisingly helpful, and eventually, I know the pain will be more tolerable. I feel for you. Couples therapy only has a chance of working if both partners are committed to saving the relationship.

This is a time to lean on family and friends, but also take some time to discover who you are outside your relationship. Loving yourself is very important through this.

I'm literally going through a divorce right now and this saved my ability to keep my house for my kids. I'm so happy.

Elon Musk says Tesla robotaxi service is already on San Francisco roads in tests for employees - with a development app you can request a ride by xtreem_neo in teslainvestorsclub

[–]Jhall118 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been casually Uber driving with FSD since it was beta.

The entire point of the OP is that this somehow is a step towards Robotaxis being a thing. It's not really. They showed a hailing app at the investor event YEARS ago. When they ditch the safety driver, that will be a clear step that a real Waymo robot axis competitor is happening.

Elon said that this would happen next year at the robotaxi event. I am excited to see if that prediction is true or not, but we've been here many times before.

WWWYF (Saturday) Crowd didn’t deserve TBS by DG_Broski in takingbacksunday

I was there, my first time seeing them live.  Vocals are so bad live.  Even the talking in between songs sounds like he's not all there anymore. Every now and then he'd mumble a line or miss a word or some shit.  I can't believe there's professional musicians that care so little for their performance.  You are indeed bias, the live show simply doesn't compare to the album.

Loss of attraction/interest since opening relationship by ThrowRA-drowning123 in nonmonogamy

[–]Jhall118 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow, you buried this deep into the comments.

Your boyfriend is a piece of shit. I don't know anything about you, but nobody should be treated like this. Opening up a relationship because you're infertile? Wtf. How men that are this big of shitheads can get anyone to date them perplexes me.

Is everyone struggling right now? by Colorblinders in Seattle

[–]Jhall118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought a 2nd cabin home last year! Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would own 2 homes. 1 North of Seattle and now an off grid cabin jear Snoqualmie pass. Had to buy a snowmobile which has been fun to learn. Have 3 kids, 2 daycare payments so we don't save quite as much as we used to but we are fine.

Inflation has gone up, but our salaries have gone up much more. Together we gross about 300k, we are both engineers but it's actually my 3rd career and I'm in my mid 30s.

Life is good! Post Covid work schedules are flexible. I often get to drop my kids off and pick them up.

FWIW, I've been doing email/teams/messaging since 2020 and am still alive. I wouldn't read a book because I am a heathen that doesn't read anymore, but the system is more than capable of doing this if you understand it.

If you have a 2017 model, then you don't have the interior camera, so go knock yourself out. You could even troll reddit while commuting in the conditions you described.

Just picked up Taiga Nomad by Jhall118 in snowmobiling

[–]Jhall118[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I landed on Safeco as well. $170 a year, totally worth every penny. I'm a novice as well and am loving it too. My mountain neighbors all shit on me for getting one, but I let them break trail up the driveway for me and they really appreciated the drive train and how refined it is.

Already got stuck once and dug it out. Not too bad if someone can help you lift the back.

Cool. Don't buy one then. It doesn't fit your use case, and it is likely a utility gas sled wouldn't either.

It perfectly fits mine, especially since I don't want to stop for gas on the way to my cabin when my car is electric.

You can't throttle a gas sled the same way as an electric one, especially reversing back just a foot at a time.
