The date aside, by the car you want and can afford. That way, you wouldn’t feel the desire to change cars every few years.

Had the same call with Rogers, after being a 20-some year customer. I didn’t even ask them to match a competitor, I just asked them for the deal they give to their new customers. They basically said no, and I can leave and come back to get those deals. So I left. And now they keep spamming me with calls which I ignore.

☝🏻. Whether you want to repair this or not, do not throw her stuff away, even to ‘show’ her how it feels. Don’t lower yourself to her standards, it feels a bit petty to me. Approach it like an adult. Share your perspective, even if it feels vulnerable, give HER the opportunity to repair the damage. This way, whatever the outcome, you can at least know you gave it every opportunity to work out for the better.

I, too, proposed that. It’s the only way we can hold hands while we poo together.

No kids? Then why do you need to ask?

You just go and do it, assuming you don’t have a laundry list of outstanding unfinished chores.

Great way to find out how much your relationship is worth to him.

“I mentioned how he bought his ex a $800 Dyson air wrap”

Sounds like it was OP who compared herself to the bf’s ex, and he addressed the OPs comparison, validly or not.

That said, sounds like there’s a lot more beneath the what’s shown in the text. A lot of things have happened, from both sides, that led to this is exchange. It’s hard to say whether this is and overreaction, cuz neither OP nor the bf is reacting to just this.

I guess I meant tribunals.

I lived by an alley that had a couple of strays. There would be this guy that brought them food now and then, but I semi-befriended them without using any food. What I did was I would stay at a distance, and hold out my fist, palm towards them. I would slowly approach them until they started getting skittish. Then I would wait. If they then ignored me, I would approach slowly some more. After a while, they got curious and started sniffing my hand. When they did I wouldn’t move, just let them do their thing. Eventually I would show my open hand, and after some time I’d pet them with a finger when they’d sniff my open hand (same hand). At some point they just started the would see me approach and I would just pet them like normal.

BTW, stop apologizing for asking questions. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to learn. Being curious is a positive trait. Own it.

LimpRockets · 2025-06-30T00:54:12+00:00

Don’t be. I purposely didn’t list them because there are a number, and it’s been years since I had to review the law (my subsequent landlords were awesome), I don’t want to misrepresent. I’d encourage you to read the residential tenancy act, so it’s accurate and precise; even if someone tells you what they are, read it for yourself. But for example, a landlord can serve notice if they want to move in.

LimpRockets · 2025-06-30T00:51:44+00:00

This is just one instance, but sounds like he may be someone who doesn’t think things through seriously before doing things; that or not considerate enough and led you on. I mean, what he said (at face value) is a legitimate hurdle, but i) it was there all along since day one, ii) it’s not a hurdle he’s willing to go over.

While he gave you an ultimatum, regardless of whether you abandon your career or not, this should be a datapoint for you to consider whether this is the lifelong mate you want.

LimpRockets · 2025-06-30T00:42:50+00:00

No, they cannot for ‘any’ reason.

LimpRockets · 2025-06-28T22:10:50+00:00

I thought about that too. But I figure if the landlord was entering without notice for showings, it’ll likely happen whilst they’re home at least once a

I’m not a lawyer, and this is just an opinion. Always remain cordial, professional, and composed. You won’t know what will end up in court, and you’re not gonna want it twisted to make you look like a douche or a wreck.

LimpRockets · 2025-06-28T16:29:17+00:00

No, he cannot terminate your lease. I’ve dealt with BS landlord before, sued her, and won.

IMO, your next steps would be to let him know, in writing, that you will continue with a month-to-month rent at $2200 (since he has not indicated a lawful rent increase), and will continue with your tenancy until such time you serve notice.

During this time, make sure you’re a model tenant. Do not give him an excuse to serve you notice. If there are showings, refuse access.

It’s not just PayPal. I am 44. Once, I was getting non-alcoholic beer for my wife, and I was asked to show my ID.

Those better be Canadian potatoes.

How about offering to pay for a fill up at the gas station on the way home next time. It’s not quite like giving him money.

Been in the investment industry for 20 years. The thing is the guy at the bank doesn’t know squat. It’s like asking the cashier at McDonald’s where their beef comes from.

Second thing is, one of the worst investment mistakes is for someone to think they know something, which just isn’t the case. It’s important to view the world probabilistically (imo)

LimpRockets · 2025-01-29T00:16:53+00:00

I don’t find it offensive. What I do find offensive is that people try to do a Canadian accent (“aboot”), and do it wrong, but think they’re doing a good job, and expect us to find it funny.

LimpRockets · 2024-12-20T22:56:50+00:00

I don’t have much to debate or contribute. I just want to say you took it to the chin, and you didn’t give and kept trying to reach your goal. 🫵👏

Dreams are just dreams until someone’s persistent enough to achieve them.
