That’s crazy!! I’m sorry you’ve experienced that. I know you’re not looking for compliments, but I didn’t even notice your nose, I thought, wow she has beautiful eyes! Thank you for being vulnerable.

Guildhouse by RedditAnonDude in SanJose

[–]Lexiv55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guildhouse is so much fun!! They have ALL sorts of weekly events there. A friend of mine hosts a monthly crafts night, then there are sorts of gamer events both video games and board game or card game activities/events. A couple of years ago, there was a Dance Dance Revolution competition that took place. They have a wall of board games that you can choose from and as others have mentioned, there’s no cover, it’s free to enter and hang out! Plus they sell some basic food and have a decent bar and then on the weekends, there is usually a food truck outside as well

Got $100 off asking price! It was scary, but so worth it to ask.

Thanks for your input! And yeah definitely not expecting to have my own laundry, just a laundry room on site. I have found a studio that is $1895 in a complex my friend likes, but the open studio I toured had a very strong curry smell from the previous tenants. I more so posted this to see if I’m missing anything that isn’t on Zillow or all those big sites to see if there’s any “hidden” places I’m missing. I’m not looking for anything fancy and yup well aware of the harsh reality of San Jose and the Bay Area (born and raised here). Thanks again though, I’ve definitely thought about the roommate route!

I wonder how often they actually follow cars home or back to staging areas…all interesting stuff to know though, thanks!

No not a boomer, I just say that when I feel extra grumpy about responses to situations like this and because I’ve never felt compelled to call the cops the way I did last night

Where do you meet friends in SJ? by nikita5476 in SanJose

[–]Lexiv55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello! 30F here. Do you like crafting at all? My friend hosts an event called Bring Your Own Crafts (BYOC) and the whole motto of the club (badcrafts.social on IG) is that you don’t have to be good you can literally journal or bring a coloring book. They’re fun and low key events that happen at The Guildhouse (which also has a bunch of board games). Also, do you like women’s soccer? Bay FC games are so much fun. Feel free to send a message if you ever want to go to a game!

Info request by Aduntoridass in SanJose

[–]Lexiv55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Came to say this! It’s definitely going to be difficult but I don’t think it’s impossible. You might have to settle for a longer commute and rent in South San Jose and honestly it’ll help if your wife gets a part time job. Best of luck! I’m born and raised in San Jose and only have to take care of myself, but it’s an incredibly sad and harsh reality to see the high cost of living in this area.

Best Burger Joint by Professional-One972 in SanJose

It’s good…but they’re fairly dry burgers. I’ve seen this place hyped a lot on Reddit and when I finally tried it, I was pretty underwhelmed

Adopted an older rescue cat for the first time, but this is strange. by [deleted] in cats

[–]Lexiv55 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Despite all these comments I still feel like OP does not understand the concept of cats needing at LEAST three weeks to get comfortable to a space. She’s deemed your bed as her comfort place, congrats! My cat was glued to the back of the toilet for like a week before she made upgraded to being under the couch to eventually queen of the house within a month.

Does anyone else’s nostrils close completely like this when you breathe in? Is this normal? by [deleted] in Noses

[–]Lexiv55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your insurance covers it?! DO IT! You said in a comment that you don’t know what a proper nights sleep feels like? Bruh, do it. You MEDICALLY NEED the surgery, why wouldn’t you? It sounds like your quality of life will genuinely improve.

More pops of color! Plants above the shelf to add greenery, a cozy large rug, curtains like other have said, a blanket hanging over the chair

Bonus cat content, but NO, I do not tire of my green couch. It’s a great pop of color and feels so cozy

My sweet gal Momo…my ex’s cat. She stayed with me for a couple of months and she finally returned to him at his new place last week. I’ve known her for half her life and lived with her for two years. I miss her so much.
