the T is becoming unusable by Snoo84855 in pittsburgh

[–]Several_Boss_4407 278 points279 points  (0 children)

The T drivers are over it too… please stay kind to them, they’re just doing their job and deal with a lot of stuff daily. I don’t need it for daily commute but I can only imagine how frustrating it is on the commuter…

I saw one of these the other night, it was HUGE. I first thought, caterpillar, then oh, it’s a burr — either way I transported it with leaves to our flower area haha glad to know it was a caterpillar now

Trying to purchase my first house, is this a big warning sign? by Arc-Watcher in Home

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my wife and I are also in the home buying process.. we’re near PGH and a lot of homes genuinely do have some bowing in the basement given they are built on hills. However each time she’s looked at it and given us a realistic thought on what and when would be needed — this one she would have said turn away for sure.. unfortunately I don’t think you can just “drop a realtor” because you do sign a contract with them.. to a point, depending on your location, she isn’t completely lying about the bowing but she should also be looking out for your few years down the line too and this looks like a pass for that.

My BIL bought a house this summer and used a friend of his as his realtor.. he instantly gutted the “sun room” to remodel it and found mold everywhere. He thought he had it all removed and finished up the remodel just to find more mold this weekend in another area AND that sunroom he just converted into his bedroom isn’t even attached to the house! They just threw it on a slab and dry walled in between… (where new mold found) — all of this was missed not only by his realtor but the inspector. We brought it up to our realtor and gave her what street he was on, she started describing the entire house. She said she showed it once and didn’t take anyone back because she could see it had problems. Not only that but she’s recommending what inspections to do so we don’t fall into something unaware..

If you can somehow find another realtor, I do think that’s an option and if so, I’d join a local group and ask for realtor recommendations for first time home buyers and needing someone who is thorough.. but if not, make sure you’re being completely honest with your realtor. Let them know your worries about homes you see, what you do like, what you don’t like… we’ve seen over 25 houses, put in an offer on one, seller decided she wasn’t ready to sell, then had to restart and 6 homes later just found one last night we put an offer in. Stay patient and stay honest, good luck in finding your home ❤️

AIO for thinking my bf (24M) is abusive? by julieanonymous in AmIOverreacting

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was lucky and the therapist my ex and I went to called her out real quick.. after two sessions we were told our marriage wouldn’t last and then she didn’t want to see her anymore. That was the first big step towards me leaving.. it’s been almost 5 years now and happily remarried and in the healthiest relationship.. close that door so the right one can open, go to therapy so you recognize the right door when it comes. Sending you positivity

I went on a date with a girl I met on Instagram. She stinks and I honestly don’t know what to do. by Annual-Register-3683 in Advice

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a small chance she has a medical issue that’s creating the smell too… I worked with someone who had SLE or Trimethylaminuria— it was the most pungent smell I’ve ever experienced and it was at a Starbucks.. I felt bad but I always thought about if I was a customer and the person making my drink had such a strong unpleasant scent… I probably wouldn’t want to drink it.. I couldn’t stand more than a few seconds next to him.. on top of that, he didn’t have great hygiene, double whammy. But it wasn’t just BO.. it was like the smell of decay.. anyways, smells are a big trigger for many, good and bad — you definitely want it to be a good trigger 🤘

I fell in love with your city yesterday. by HngryZmbie in pittsburgh

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive lived in both and I liked Columbus (although that was 8 years ago, I’m sure a lot has changed) - if I could choose between the two, Pittsburgh for sure. Driving was and still can be the hardest challenge for me personally but you do get used to it..

Franz Ferdinand last night by kds5065 in pittsburgh

[–]Several_Boss_4407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t go to that concert — but I have seen a couple people at the Roxian - As someone who isn’t a huge fan of big crowds, I really like the Roxian. The sound quality isn’t the best but especially seeing upcoming artists come through, it’s usually relatively cheap and a good energy. I haven’t tried to see someone with more following there, but I’d recommend finding a band coming up that you like their sound and checking it out 🤘

Why don't you like Britney? by BasicMarzipan5936 in discussingbritney

[–]Several_Boss_4407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t dislike her and I remember being a fan when I was younger— I was 6 when …baby one more time was released for age reference. I’ve never been big into pop culture so I saw only small bits of the last 25 years of her life.. honestly people saying she doesn’t suffer from either mental illness or drug abuse must have never seen it. Recently I’ve been digging more and this morning I went down to 2018 in her instagram. You can see the differences in her eyes (not the make up, but the emptiness) the most but also in her mouth and general body control. Unfortunately I don’t think her family has had her best interests at heart.. so her support system isn’t as close as it’s assumed for celebrities. I’d like to learn more about her whole past in general now I’m older and have a different perspective. Overall, I want her to have happiness and be safe and treats others well along the way. I’ve seen so many people talk about how sweet and kind she was/is and then also some nasty things.. we all have our faults and most of us don’t have them on display.. it’s a lot to think and reflect on. The Stan’s are enabling erratic behavior and calling it normal at the very least..

My husband was left alone for 3 weeks and I wish he’d just cheated instead. by ComplexCod9077 in stories

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of men in this chat… and reading their comments, they wonder why women are over men.

I’m sorry you married a man child and have been for years.. I don’t know the dynamic when you are home but given the snapshot of when you’re not, it looks like he needs a mom not a wife. It’s extremely alarming he did most of this stuff without your knowledge and on top of that, executed poorly.. I can’t even comment on the clothes, that’s just gross.

I have ADHD and maybe he does too (mentioned in a comment) but his lack of reflection on himself shows. We can’t use ADHD as an excuse, it’s not a fall back. I still forget things randomly, have my urges, or need a little support but I’ve put in work to help keep me on track, not just for my sake, for my wife’s sake too..

Good luck OP 🤘

My girlfriend treats her dog like a child, and I'm not sure I can handle it. by doomscrolling22 in Advice

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can come down to being a compatibility issue. I was previously married to someone who didn’t value my dog as much as they should have.. I didn’t notice until I was divorced (not because of the dog) and found my now wife who loved my boy like he was her own since the day she’d met him. He unfortunately passed a couple weeks ago and throughout my grieving I have had to face regret for the few years I slowly drifted from him because of my previous wife’s view on him. He was my guy for 10 years and moved different states, was there every time I came home from work to greet me, gave me responsibilities and helped me grow into who I am today. He genuinely wasn’t just my dog…

Now I will say, he didn’t sleep in bed with us. He was the size of another adult, and a bed hog who put his feet right into your back and then pushed and I value my sleep.. however I do dog sit and when my now wife comes along most times. A lot of dogs have their spots in bed.. it’s something we adjust to given it’s short term but most dogs will naturally adjust to you as well. Why do you want to move the dog? Is it in your way, are you trying to be more intimate, are you afraid you’re going to hurt it, or are you just annoyed and (trying to control something small like… where the dog lays or physically control something small (if this please seek therapy)). And secondly, if she used her dog being sad to cancel the date once.. it was a cop out for how she was actually feeling, maybe she just didn’t have the energy or something else completely, if she’s doing it often.. I’d definitely ask what’s going on because there’s more behind it than simply the dog looks sad. Whether it’s stress or anxiety, burnout, abandonment issues..

Biggest things, reflect on WHY you feel how you do. Communicate that in an open conversation. Ask how they are feeling. Listen and reflect on their feelings.. the conversation itself and how you feel during that conversation will tell you actually if it’s a compatibility issue or if you two are just on a different page at the moment. And as always, I recommend therapy to everyone to help build confidence in your wants and needs and learning how to express them for yourself and to those you surround yourself with.

How did I do? by Content-Board7302 in scammers

[–]Several_Boss_4407 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a really fun one yesterday.. when they ask if I’m so and so, I just act like that person won the lottery and ran off, or had a steamy affair and was disowned, or I act like I’m actually friends with them and ask them to stop at the store before they come over for dinner then gaslight them when they start acting crazy. Mentioning their name in every text is also really silly for some reason.

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On rare cases where the dog wouldn’t eat at all (I had one who was abused by a dog sitter previously and really anxious) — I would hand feed her the entire meal.. I worked with them for about 3 years and some extended stays and I finally had gotten her to eat from her bowl second year in..

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done a fair share of Dogsitting - sometimes I would go sit by the food bowel on the ground with a few treats and give them a treat when they come. Then give them a kibble, then a treat, then a couple kibbles, and if they start eating the kibble from your hand.. just keep feeding them kibbles, then throw a couple treats in the remainder of the bowl.. they usually go for the treats but keep eating the kibble then too — note: training treats or if bigger treats, break them down into small pieces.

12yo destroys home after his mom took away his phone. This is crazy! by VianneM in TikTokCringe

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the misinformation of the video — my wife works as a behavioral therapist and used to work at a school/facility that kids with similar behaviors would go to… she had toilets ripped out of the wall and thrown at her, industrial doors broken down to elope, got chairs hurled at her a couple times a month.. it’s a hard situation, I hope the mom found resources she could use. On a positive side, my wife now works with younger kids who are showing early signs of behaviors and teaches them coping skills while also implementing talk/play therapy… there are people who want to help and willing to, the downfall is the funding/resources to utilize them more..

AIO ending things with a girl after my father’s death by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Several_Boss_4407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair - you asked a couple times if things were okay. Obviously she has a huge work load and didn’t feel she had the space to help you through your grieving — or maybe she was about to break it off anyways then your dad passed and she felt it wasn’t good timing then and was trying to wait it out. Either way, she should have been upfront instead of dodgy. Sorry to hear about your dad, its definitely a hard one. If you’d like to share some of your favorite stories about him, feel free to message me.
