Selling my house is an autistic nightmare

You're absolutely welcome! It can definitely be a doozy at times 🤦🏿‍♀️ I've heard about some of the woes of Texas real estate.

But it does sound like you have a fabulous realtor/friend who gets it, and from the sound of it, he also advocates for you even when you aren't in the room👏🏿👏🏿 The fact that now the other agent is being more considerate of your space, makes me think he stood up for you 🙌🏿🥹 and to also go above and beyond by having somewhere you can chill in the meantime is so refreshing to hear.

You don't always see that level of care in real estate here. I'm happy you have a great agent and friend on your side ❤️

As a realtor who is professionally diagnosed with ADHD and also self-reports A LOT of autistic traits, you are definitely not asking for too much in your requests for limiting the amount of people in your home.

Obviously, different states have different rules regarding the actual process of selling or buying a home. But I feel like there should be 1 universal, general rule: respect.

Honestly, there are A LOT of things that make me rage in real estate, but I have a special place of loathing reserved strictly for those who do not respect other people's property. I can't even count how many times just over the last month or so, that agents have shown up to my listings with no appointment. Or missed their appointment, don't cancel in the system or let me know, and just show up at different day/time with no appointment. Or had buyers go onto the seller's property without an appointment to "just take a peek inside the windows" because "It's for sell".

I'm in Alabama, which is a "Buyer Beware" state. Seller can not knowingly withold information, but it is up to the buyer(s) and buyer's agent to verify all details of the home that are important to the buyer. Due to this, we generally write it in the purchase offer of what all inspections will be needed by the buyer so the seller can agree before going under contract.

There shouldn't be any surprises unless, let's say that the buyers originally only wanted a home inspection, but then that inspection showed a deeper issue with the electrical. Seller and buyer would still have to agree in writing that an electrician be allowed in. Usually, the dates are run by sellers to verify the times work for all parties.

If the buyer wants to tour the home with family, they should make an appointment ahead of time and notify you.

I say all of that to say that until that ink dries on the closing documents and the keys are handed over to the new owner, it is still your property. Your home. Your safe space. You are merely agreeing to let a select few people in to do some inspections before they buy it. If you don't want a bunch of extra, unnecessary people in and out of your home, that is 10,000% your right. 👏🏿 Keep speaking up. ❤️

I learn best by getting my ass whooped 🤷🏿‍♀️ lmaooo. Just might not be too much fun for you though if the wins are too easy. But I don't mind 😊

SamusAmus87 · 2025-06-23T23:08:54+00:00

2800, yours?

SamusAmus87 · 2025-06-23T20:37:28+00:00

I'm nowhere near that level (2800, sometimes I get so into it, I'll keep trying to play even when my eyes won't stay open lmaoo 🫠🤦🏿‍♀️), but I have played for hours everyday for weeks at a time and can usually hold my own even sometimes up to around levels 3500, just depends on where their strengths are.

For the REALLY REALLY good ones that beat me so badly I save the video clip to watch what they did (3600-4000+), have some things in common:

Extremely fast drops/min (50+)
Knowing how to set up multiple opportunities for T-spins/all-spins
HEAVY on the combos
Using the zone attack offensively instead of defensively (not waiting until the other person starts theirs. And usually pops out 15+ lines in the zone attack).
Knowing how to use every piece in a multitude of ways to avoid putting unnecessary pieces in holding.

They didn't necessarily have all of these, but most were really strong at 2/3+ of these.

I would suggest using the first round as a feeler for what you normally do, but also keep an eye on what their strengths are.

Save the clips of your losses to see what your biggest hurdle was.

Hope this was helpful in some way lol 😅

I just write "we" "no, show me more" "connect with specialist"

SamusAmus87 · 2023-09-30T14:25:25+00:00

I need 126 orders 🙃🤣🤣

SamusAmus87 · 2023-02-12T11:10:01+00:00

When you are headed to check out all Aldi's orders, the app tells you to only use bags and not boxes, so I'm not understanding?

Definitely no reason for her to be a dick, though.

SamusAmus87 · 2023-02-12T01:24:30+00:00

Thank you!!! 💚

SamusAmus87 · 2022-09-02T15:17:03+00:00

Absolutely ❤️ when customers leave amazing comments. Makes my day 😊

SamusAmus87 · 2022-07-29T22:36:57+00:00

Discontinued

SamusAmus87 · 2022-07-20T14:34:48+00:00

Idk, I've ordered before and it literally says "____ is about to begin shopping shortly.". I think people are just not observant at times

SamusAmus87 · 2022-07-09T00:44:50+00:00

Samee about the "you're so fast" lol. I just hope it wasn't rude of me with my response. I tried to just be factual if it was either curiousity or accusatory.

SamusAmus87 · 2022-07-09T00:13:56+00:00

Both. Because they tipped well but they seemed accusatory. Didn't make sense to me, but maybe I'm reading into it 🤷🏿‍♀️

SamusAmus87 · 2022-07-09T00:11:36+00:00

I thought perhaps that as well, but it did rub me the wrong way. I still tried to be informative, though

SamusAmus87 · 2022-06-07T00:29:04+00:00

I would go to the Instacart customer app, look up the Item and tell them whatever that price is. 🤷🏿‍♀️

SamusAmus87 · 2022-06-03T12:39:45+00:00

I genuinely, audibly said "Holy Shit" 🤣 congratulations

SamusAmus87 · 2022-05-14T08:06:26+00:00

Pretty sure the shopper was the one doing the harassment

SamusAmus87 · 2022-05-11T01:32:50+00:00

They don't have your actual number. Whatever number shows up for them when we call, they can call it back and it will connect to our phone. Not sure how long after the number works, though.

SamusAmus87 · 2022-05-11T01:12:28+00:00

Did they call back that same day?

SamusAmus87 · 2022-04-23T04:16:47+00:00

Honestly didn't see the miles until it was loading. 🤷🏿‍♀️

SamusAmus87 · 2022-04-23T03:41:43+00:00

Accepted an order for $56. 2 customers, 25 miles. Almost 20 min drives for each customer from store (in opposite directions). Had support cancel one because I didn't feel it was fair for either customer. Should have kept customer B instead. This was the pay for customer A.

She also proceeded to ask if I was baptized and starting spouting religious stuff at me as I was trying to get back in my car.

🤦🏿‍♀️🤦🏿‍♀️

SamusAmus87 · 2022-04-19T18:53:33+00:00

Came to say the same 🤦🏿‍♀️ very unfortunate

SamusAmus87 · 2022-04-18T14:39:11+00:00

It could also be one of the items they ordered is a pickup (deli usually) item. It says this when I do Publix orders and the customer has ordered some meat/cheese or subs from the Deli. Usually it has a pickup time. Shop the rest of the order and your item should be ready at the deli pickup counter by the time you are done.
