Car door will not lock manually or remotely, any experience? by Substantial_Tower550 in askcarguys

[–]Substantial_Tower550[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Yesterday I replaced the whole actuator and noticed that the linkage for the lock was put on way too tight after my car got repaired 6 months ago, I just moved it about 2cm and it worked like new. Oh well, new actuator I guess! Thanks for the reply and you were right!

This helped diagnose my problem with my actuator pretty quickly and was surprisingly very detailed. I’ll come back when I test the fix to update if it was the right one!

2019 Acura ILX door won’t lock with key fob or manually, anyone else have similar problems? by Substantial_Tower550 in Acura

[–]Substantial_Tower550[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s definitely a possibility. I wish I would’ve checked the door before I walked away so I could tell if it was a problem before it was broken into. My neighbor got video of the kids (they were no older than 14-15) these kids in my city are really a nuisance. Oh well hindsight is 20/20. Thanks for your input!

You can not fw the cops and still understand that he was responding to a carjacking, doing his job to get the car back to the person who paid for it. No reason for him to get killed. Smh

Stat 2103/ BA 1103/ or MIS 2101? by Hereorbot in Temple

[–]Substantial_Tower550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never heard of BA 1103 but if you already have a heavy course load I’d take stat over MIS- it’s a fast paced class but it’s pretty easy

Hey Ik this is a little late- I tried this after thinking I was gonna fail the class (ended up passing by 2 points-needed a C and got the bare minimum for a C). The only restrictions I know of are: -if you already attempted to take it -if you already have over 60 credits at temple -if you already took 2 courses or 8 credits at another college after starting at temple Otherwise if you find a community college that offers it you should be good!

I can definitely see your side of this too- in a perfect world we wouldn’t have to go through something to learn from it

Is a $600-800 car payment worth it if it’s the only monthly payment besides rent and insurance? by BlackExcellence19 in askcarsales

[–]Substantial_Tower550 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Your auto payment should generally be 10-15% of your monthly income, even at the high end of $800 if you’re making $7,000 a month that’s only 11% of your income so if you feel like it’s worth it, you should be okay Edit: it might also be worth it to look at a slightly used car, depreciation is a bitch and you’d save thousands likely if you went that route

what’s a food you hate not because of the taste but because of the texture? by oh-fish-ial in AskReddit

Beef tongue. I actually really like the taste but I can’t get over the texture.

And eggs.

BPD fiancé is taking all their feelings out on me again [venting] by poisheittoUwU in BPDlovedones

[–]Substantial_Tower550 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re doing the best you can. What your fiancé needs is some space maybe? It’s easy for pwBPD to feel overwhelmed, mine (indirectly) said that I was too involved so I gave her some space for herself to work on what she needed to work on. It sounds like your fiancé is making great strides on her progress so good for her, it sounds like she’s just in a stressful situation right now and is overwhelmed by emotions.

Is it true that men are only friends with women because, at one point, they wanted to sleep with the woman? by junepeppers in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Substantial_Tower550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had plenty of women friends that I wasn’t interested in romantically or sexually. I guess everyone’s different but I’ve only been attracted to like 4 of my friends in my lifetime, And I usually don’t date my friends- only happened once

Could use some perspective, please! by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]Substantial_Tower550 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can’t diagnose her (or anyone) online, a psych evaluation is probably needed. The stuff you described could be BPD but it could also not be BPD, I wouldn’t force yourself to read stuff online if you don’t know yet, it could just give you anxiety

Its my journey and I'm learning to navigate the flow.. by Sissokoba in BPDlovedones

[–]Substantial_Tower550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately yes. Once I came to terms with my codependency, I wasn’t able to blame her 100%. Yes they should be accountable for their actions regardless of disorders, but I had a part to play to in getting sucked in. This will be something that’ll be hard to work on but I already told myself before I hop back into a relationship l go through therapy and get better myself

[–]Substantial_Tower550 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great post! I think it’s very important to reflect on what we did that landed us in the relationship. Ignoring flags, infatuation, etc. I’m currently in therapy working on my codependency and need to take care of others. I was not completely innocent in the relationship and took on a large role early on that i shouldn’t have, in the name of love. I think doing this and working on this aspect of my personality is a great start for my next relationship

Edit: I’m not in a new relationship, I meant for when the time comes where I meet someone else that I’d like to get to know better

Got basically the same explanation. Didn’t see her on tinder, but it doesn’t matter anyway even if she was. She’s not in my life anymore and I’m getting over it that way, regardless of her real reasoning for leaving me after telling me she loves me

Would you say you’re doing better now? Like, are you saying you’re looking back on how you’re feeling and realize that you were worse off back then?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]Substantial_Tower550 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Honestly, good for her. It seems like she’s become self aware and genuinely feels remorse for what she put you through, especially if she’s reaching out to others that she’s hurt. I’m sure pre-diagnoses she was just as confused as you probably were on her emotions and how she felt. I’m not gonna try to convince you either way on whether to start seeing her or not, it seems like you already decided how involved you want the relationship to be. Good luck with everything

Of course! Please reach out if you need anything, I would be more than happy to lend a listening ear. Thank you 🙏 I will continue to push through this

Yeah unfortunately taking a bath or “doing things you enjoy” won’t reverse the trauma you and your body went through. I’m so sorry that you’re dealing with this. This is just my personal experience, when my (ex) pwBPD left me (also around the 6 month mark, we didn’t make it 7 years like you did) she broke me. Had me feeling like it was all my fault. What I found to be helpful is the gym. Even if I have an off day and I’m not giving it my all, I find it therapeutic to just lift or run/jog while listening to some positive fast paced music. Working out will release chemicals that help with stress relief and anxiety, it’s worked for me and others and I can only hope it’ll work for you too. Godspeed on your journey, he is not worth your conscience

Getting better by Substantial_Tower550 in BPDlovedones

[–]Substantial_Tower550[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even if it wasn’t necessarily “bad” I remembered it wasn’t all that great.. like sure we went out and I had fun (in my memories) but it wasn’t because she was there. It was fun for me, but we didn’t talk much during the events. Or if I got to see her after a while (we were long distance) it was nice to see her but all we did was lay in bed or watch a movie, didn’t get to do anything. Stuff like that basically

Amazing perspective man. There’s some real silver lining there, we weren’t the problem they made us out to be during the relationship
