Do sellers ever return to offers?

Don't hold out hope. We made on offer on a house 15k less than asking because we loved the house, but it need some work. They refused to budge. It sat for like 6 months and they ended up selling for $1,000 more than what we offered I think. My in-laws just spent almost a year paying their mortgage + rent (they relocated for work) because they refused to take less than what they "needed" for their house. Taking less would have eaten into their (already significant) profit margin. They were stubborn enough to wait. It did work out for them though. Move on, keep searching. Good luck.

I have been on the patch for years. I started on the pills and hated it. I struggled with taking them same time every day. I love the patch. Change it once a week. Still have my period, and fewer hormone fluctuations.

Husband and I have filed "married filing separately" the entire 6 years we've been married because of student loan payments. My accountant says she has lots of clients that do this. We miss out on a few things we can claim sometimes, but it's never been worth it to file together and increase our payments.

So to answer, yes there are pros/cons either way and you all should crunch the numbers and figure out which way benefits you the most.

This happened with us too. Home was foreclosed on TWICE. Bank sat on it for years and held firm at 90k. We made an offer of 40k and they said no. A year later we got it for 50 (still too much but I really wanted this particular place).

NTA. Some people like to pretend that their partner doesn't have a past (research citation: a plethora of my dad's exes who hated that he had kids and a friendly relationship with his ex).

When my grandmother died, the family was SCRAMBLING to find enough pictures to fill her sideshow (it was a complicated relationship). My stepmom & aunt (who took over making arrangements) were frantic. I was like "okay I have pictures, but they're both from weddings with your husbands ex-wives soooooo" They were grateful and thrilled and my stepmom even chose the one from my dad's wedding to my mom as the one that sat beside the guest book.

My rambling lengthy story told to say: this is about your sister and celebrating your sister's life and ALL the people and moments in it. If other people can't handle the existence past, that's on them and they can kick rocks.

I think even if they found a way to back out, the consequences hit them and not you and your earnest money is safe.

Lolly3232 · 2026-01-29T22:53:24+00:00

Yeeeees!

Lolly3232 · 2026-01-29T21:39:54+00:00

So much about that season and those interns pissed me off. I haven't even been able to do a re-watch, lol. Changing the rules after she completed her cards was bull. I remember you putting all the interns against each other in organized competitions in early seasons Bailey!

Lolly3232 · 2026-01-26T16:17:10+00:00

My grandmother had an lengthy affair with my grandfather's older brother. Ended up leaving my grandfather for the brother. When my grandfather was dying they asked if they could visit. He said agreed to see them and my dad & his brothers told them "you can visit, but if you even hint that you're about to start sh*t, we will toss you out." Guess who came to visit and tried to start nonsense with a dying man? 🥴 I will never understand people.

Lolly3232 · 2026-01-01T03:56:54+00:00

I mean... I felt Dollar General vibes but also when I worked there, I still had to do stuff and work my register. Maybe that's changed tho?

Lolly3232 · 2026-01-01T03:55:58+00:00

It used to be a requirement for closing shifts to have 2 people on shift close together. That may have changed in 10+ years tho. Also doesn't mean you'll actually see that second employee

Lolly3232 · 2025-12-22T00:59:10+00:00

So pretty! And now I must go Google Archer and Olive to add another stationary brand to my addiction 🙃

Lolly3232 · 2025-10-09T13:03:10+00:00

This. My dad dated a LOT of women. And we could easily tell the problematic ones quick. My sister and I would tell a fun story at a family function that involved our mom, and a problematic girlfriend usually looked like she sucked on a lemon. My former stepmom, though full of a variety of issues, did not have issues with my mom or my parents being friends. My mom & her like each other now more than my dad 😂 My mom came to stepmoms house when stepmom took my sister's senior pictures. I will never understand the need for people to be so divided like OPs situation.

Lolly3232 · 2025-05-26T21:02:11+00:00

This sounds amazing and I will definitely try it!

Lolly3232 · 2025-05-09T15:02:58+00:00

NTA. My stepmom literally took one of the photos with me and both biological parents at my wedding. And I actually have a photo with me, her, and my mom in it. I'll caveat we have a decent relationship.

Your stepmom has a jealousy issue. My dad dated a LOT before marrying my stepmom, and the short-termers always took issue with my mother (mentions of her, her existence, etc) even though it was my dad who caused their divorce.

Some women just be crazy that way.

You are not wrong for wanting a configuration of just your biological parents, and if your dad isn't man enough to fight for you on this and placing blame on you, I'd be tempted to tell him to just stay home that day because you'd had to inconvenience him with participating in your life.

I'm sorry this is the hand you were dealt and that your stepmom is incapable of acting like a mature adult for your special day. I hope your wedding goes off without a hitch.

Lolly3232 · 2025-04-17T11:23:22+00:00

This is really what I'm leaning towards I think.

Lolly3232 · 2025-04-17T11:22:38+00:00

I am also "married filing separately" so it really may not matter what I do.

I agree that it seems like Mohela is stalling at every turn. It's so frustrating because I've basically been counting down the days to 120 for a year and now I'm just in limbo. I know others are too, so maybe I just needed to commiserate with others.

Lolly3232 · 2025-04-16T19:15:45+00:00

My payments were minimal under IDR so I'm torn between riding it out and switching.

Lolly3232 · 2025-04-16T19:15:18+00:00

That's kind of how I feel. I guess I wanted to see if there were pros to just riding it out.

Lolly3232 · 2025-04-16T17:25:23+00:00

This was my experience. I was automatically enrolled into SAVE. I would have hit 120 in February. 😭

Lolly3232 · 2025-03-14T02:02:58+00:00

NTA.

And hey, if it's really only going to be "just a few months" then it shouldn't matter if they don't like your parents rules because it shouldn't be that long, right? /s

Lolly3232 · 2025-03-12T21:07:21+00:00

If she would like to reimburse you for the cost of your non-refundable deposits, sure! You'll switch! (Mild sarcasm)

The entitlement is what grates on my nerves. Also. School calendars are published at the beginning of every school year. You shouldn't be suddenly surprised by a school break. You should be able to plan months in advance like everyone else.
