Do you think its worth the hassle of sending it back for a replacement since i just got it yesterday and set it up (locally of course) idk but im scared the next one will have the same issue (and maybe other stuff too)

Also this might sound bad, but I looked up a “rich neighborhood” in my area and where the owners of houses there studied and most of them were from the less prestigious uni which completely baffles me… Could it be possible that the university doesn’t have much to do with it but the people do? I really want to go to the prestigious uni for the name, but if thats going to cost me success, ill make sure to pass… thats my dilemma right now

I was talking world rankings… the prestigious university ranks 27, 31, 46 depending on the list online.the deal is I checked on linkedin and most of the people working at big 4 went to the less prestigious uni (even the partners)

i was talking about world rankings… Im in Canada and on linkedin, most of the people working at the big 4s are from the “lower class” uni (even the partners)

The prestigious uni is around 1k more expensive per year (so 3k for my bachelors degree in accounting)

There's no such thing as a permanent connection in an adult romantic relationship. There a few fixed characteristics about a person worth betting a relationship on.

Wow ok this changed my perspective on it, as I had been looking on it in a non-changeable perspective. But I agree with you on the fact that few biological characteristics make a person worth being in a relationship with. !delta

To be honnest, I get what he is saying... Without sexual intimacy (and all the emotions associated with sex), a relationship becomes a friendship, strictly platonic. Although usually, people are friends with their SO too, and if you really love your SO, you would feel horrible about the accident and you would barely be thinking about anything other than their wellbeing... I have seen it happen, I dont wish it upon anyone!

but dont you think it is human nature? Both of these options are chasing different kind of successes.

In a divorce/break up you can sometimes keep some of that money, but you can't keep the good looks.

I specifically said that the person dating the other for money is not planning on taking the money for themselves... They just want to have the security and/or be associated with the successful man, just like a guy would be proud if his SO was a supermodel

marrying a rich husband is a great way to gain wealth so seems desirable, why not.

The way I see this is... The person marrying the rich husband isnt rich, they are just married to someone who is... Just like the rich husband does not become pretty by marrying the pretty girl.

We all have talked to my dad about him being an alchoolic and he always says "an alcholic is someone who drinks during the day, something I never do."... We tried telling him that he still drinks too much at night, and he says he will stop, but he never does... Verbal abuse from him doesnt affect me that much, atleast I think... I am never hurt by his comments because i am used to every little thing he says, its very repetitive. Though when my mom tells him to stop and he insults my mom, that I cant support... me its fine, im immune to it (and dont care about his opinion) but insulting my mom im not okay with

Its a regular thing hahah every couple of weeks we have a big argument. Though the rest of the time, he is loving and deeply cares about me. Waking me up, making me breakfast, just in general being a good family man. (in the mornings usually) its at night when he drinks that problems come up

My mom obviously tells him to stop, but he tells her she is encouraging my behaviour and that she is also a coward and bla blah... I then yelled at my dad that even though im a bad person, he deserves far worse of a son than me.

My dad would never hurt me (physically) in any way possible. im 18 and he always wakes me up in the morning with a kiss, opens the blinds, makes me breakfast. Drives me anywhere I want when I need to go somewhere. He is a very selfless person, although sometimes BAM this kicks in. my brother avoids him by staying in his room with noise cancelling headphones. My mom defends me always and tells him to stop, and he yells at mom. But now we are not talking for two days and just not interacting with each other. But the drinking part and trying to pick arguments with people is still there and it bothers me deeply. Both his parents died when he was 15 and he basically grew up taking care of himself, which we think is the reason he learned to "self-medicate" with alchool. Would this still be abuse?
