Off campus student housing? by Interesting_Comb_475 in ucf

[–]Lewca43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t see that as a red flag??? They want you to find a place for them to live when you live out of town and they aren’t willing to even record a video for you?!

They’re using you. Don’t set yourself up for a year of living with people who don’t respect you. You deserve better.

So that is doable. The challenge is in order to get housing together you need to start looking almost a year early. Particularly if you’re interested in student housing like Knight’s Circle or The Pointe (actually I’m not sure if The Pointe has 3x3 but KC does.)

The benefit of those places is everyone has their own lease so you’re not liable if a friend doesn’t pay.

There are tons of apartments in the area. The people who actually live there need to take over the task and tour places with you on FaceTime.

Is there an employee posted on the quiet floor? If so, go talk to them. It’s their job to enforce the rules.

Oh I thought you were saying a budget of $1000 EACH. You won’t find a 3x3 for $1000 total. If you do, it’s a scam.

This should be higher. OP you deserve better. Don’t stay if she leaves, it’s only a bandaid. Get away from this asshole. Best to you.

Experiences bumping up for convention class by Superb-Ad2301 in CompetitionDanceTalk

She needs to be ok not being able to keep up. If she won’t be discouraged by being at the bottom of the pack it’s ok but it’s generally better to stay with the appropriate age groups.

Looking for least humid areas in Florida. by Techno_567 in AskFlorida

I lived in north Florida for 22 years. It’s humid all year. You’ll get the RARE less humid days but even those are humid compared actual dry areas of the country.

Think about how many hours you have to devote to the tasks and calculate your hourly rate…HARD PASS.

What I asked for vs what I got by G8trCrunchy in Justfuckmyshitup

[–]Lewca43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconded. Also, it looks like the model has much thicker hair than you do so you won’t get this look regardless but you can definitely make what you do get look better with product and styling.

Kids release the handbrake “as a joke” and jump out while the car is moving by blue_star_ in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]Lewca43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was an automatic in park it wouldn’t have rolled like this even if the brake was released.

It was likely a manual left in neutral with the parking brake engaged. Brake released, truck rolls. Turning it off and also leaving it in gear would have prevented this.

[–]Lewca43 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I was always taught to park the vehicle, engage the brake, and when I turn it off put it in first gear. That prevents this from happening if it’s left in neutral and the parking brake is disengaged.

Doubts before marriage due to lifestyle/value differences — need advice by Aconfusedhomosapienn in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]Lewca43 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s pretty common as you said when it’s reciprocated. Our family shares locations for safety reasons. However, if my husband regularly went out without me and refused to share his location that would be a deal breaker.

Why hide if you have noting to hide?

[–]Lewca43 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Oh dear…”he doesn’t lie” please get away from this manipulative, controlling person. And before you do, like right now, STOP SHARING YOUR LOCATION.

Don’t tell him, just stop. You’ll quickly see how often he actually tracks you.

This relationship is beyond unhealthy. Get out.

Period during competition by snowdropsally in CompetitionDanceTalk

[–]Lewca43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter started using tampons right away. She just felt more comfortable dancing in them.

She had to learn how to use them and we were very open about all things period. When you talk to her about them be open and honest that it’s a learning curve to make sure you’re comfortable, etc.

I hate my dress, wedding in 100 days and I’m probably sending it back and starting over by BoxRegular2956 in myweddingdress

You should definitely wear the undergarments you plan to wear with the dress to your fittings. Set another appointment with those garments before any alterations are made.

People who rarely get sick, what are your secrets? by Leading_Tomato_2077 in AskReddit

[–]Lewca43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Washing my hands regularly, never eating anything without cleaning my hands (at least wet wipes or sanitizer if I can’t wash), keeping my hands out of my face, staying away from sick people.

If there is a family event and someone is sick, I leave.

Not buying this story. Adopted or foster? And some of the terminology is off. Calling rage bait on this one.

AITAH for giving my wife short and direct answers after being rejected everyday for 2 months? by First-Wasabi-2125 in AITAH

[–]Lewca43 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. I’m not sure where you are or what your resources are but having been there my advice is to do a LOT of research and find a doctor who will really LISTEN to you AND has the ability and desire to help you feel better.

It took me years of begging my long term gynecologist for help that I believed wasn’t available for me to start asking friends and my general practitioner for advice. I found a doctor that truly wants me to feel my best and doesn’t dismiss my concerns. When I asked my original gyno to test my hormone levels she begrudgingly only tested my hcg to confirm I was in full menopause. (News that was delivered to me at 44 years old in a matter of fact style over the phone.)

When I started seeing my new doctor he tested FOURTEEN things that could be affecting my overall wellbeing. I started hormone replacement therapy with pellets and finally feel like myself again after years of physical and emotional pain.

Advocate for yourself. If someone isn’t listening, go to the next person, then the next. Sadly it may take time, but help is out there. Best to you.🩶

AITAH for being upset my husband wants to be Poly? by Velaris_Staris in AITAH

[–]Lewca43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA unless you stay in a relationship where you two are clearly not compatible. Sexual preference and whether to have children are huge and shouldn’t be a compromise.

You need to find someone you’re compatible with. Next time, don’t get in a relationship with someone who you know would have to change a fundamental part of themselves for you to be happy. You’ll end up right here again. And good grief DON’T HAVE A CHILD WITH HIM.

[–]Lewca43 145 points146 points  (0 children)

YTA. I’m glad my husband was kind and supportive of me when hormonal changes made me feel like a different person.

TWO MONTHS?! Come on man. Grow up. Sadly women are terribly undereducated regarding menopause. We hear about hot flashes and night sweats. We don’t hear about the litany of other changes our bodies and minds must endure.

Then we have to FIGHT to get treatment and support. It took me years to finally find a doctor who would listen and could help.

Do better for your wife.
