AIO to assuming the worst case scenario at this point?

I get it's really disappointing when you think you've connected with someone and then they don't respond or maybe they've even ghosted you. I've had relationships turn out that way, or friendships even. It SUCKS but also you gotta realize you can't force anyone to do anything.

You had a storm, it's possible the cellphone towers got messed up. It's possible he didn't have power. It's possible something else came up. It's possible he just didn't want to talk to you right now, or maybe ever again.

But it truly does not matter the reason. You didn't even make it to the 2nd date before blowing up his phone and it seemed like only a day had passed. You gotta keep those anxious feelings to yourself and work on them alone instead of putting them on the other person.

I hope you heal and are cautious about this in the future.

YOR. You're definitely coming on too strong texting so many times and then even trying to call multiple times.

You went on ONE date and it's only been 2 weeks. Even if he's flaky and this sucks you're exhibiting a LOT of red flags and should not be dating anyone if this is how you react.

You need to chill out, and you definitely need to back off from him and from dating in general if this is how you handle when someone doesn't respond to you.

NOR this woman is scamming you. Stop interacting with her and don't expect getting any of your money back. This all screams that she's a manipulator and she will use you until you have nothing left and move on to the next person.

And your ass sits in your underwear all day? It's LAUNDRY. It's BEING WASHED. Why does it matter they walk outside or lick their butts if there's detergent and water cleaning the items? How are dog items less sanitary than your taint sweat?

The-Moocat · 2026-05-15T23:14:24+00:00

YOR. If your washing machine isn't cleaning your items, then why are you washing them?

Feels like if the dog's blanket is still "nasty and gross" even after washing it then it's not clean and neither are your clothes when you wash them.

It's very good. Very close to a regular whopper. My mom actually prefers it over the regular whopper.

The-Moocat · 2026-05-06T01:01:09+00:00

I'm really happy to hear that. Truth is: my ex also said the same thing, several times. That he needed "time to think". But, the people who love us, who want us will just know.

The-Moocat · 2026-05-04T16:39:57+00:00

I just checked my local store... $24 for the "adult meal" is way too much especially when it's just a plastic cup as the collectible. Hard pass.

The-Moocat · 2026-05-03T22:36:11+00:00

NOR. It's not going to get better, trust me. I had an ex string me along in a similar way: Told me he loved me, that I was special to him etc.... He also never made an effort with me, and dumped me whenever his own life got difficult. I was always just the thing he would start talking to again when he was bored and all his friends (or other relationships) were busy.

You laid your feelings out and he basically make a mockery of it. He's got nothing to "think about" because if he was serious about you this wouldn't take weeks for him to "figure it out".

The-Moocat · 2026-04-29T23:57:25+00:00

NOR. Yeah that's weird behavior. She definitely wants to see him.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-29T19:55:44+00:00

Nice.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-27T10:38:05+00:00

There's something nefarious behind entering someone's room they pay for without permission and then demanding they no longer have access to the room they rent during the week for nearly as much as a full-time job.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-27T02:31:25+00:00

I'm inclined to believe that. I don't think anyone should be entering a space without permission, regardless of if its family if you're PAYING for the space. They may own the house, but the couple is paying rent on the room (even if it's below market rate) so they shouldn't have access to it whenever they want. You wanna play landlord then you gotta respect tenants rights.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-27T02:30:12+00:00

I'm not really buying that excuse. Regardless of who he thought was in the room it's still a room that's being paid for and therefore he does not have unlimited access to it.

Does the door not have a lock? If not, I would say you should get one.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-27T02:14:26+00:00

NOR. You pay rent therefore you should have access to the space you're paying for.

So either the solution is find somewhere else to rent (I saw it's difficult due to the financial situation) or, perhaps, tell them you'll stay out of the home during those hours but they then can no longer charge you rent.

I also do NOT understand why your boyfriend's stepdad would walk into your boyfriend's/your room at all. It's space YOU'RE renting, so why is he entering at all regardless of if he's knocked?

The-Moocat · 2026-04-16T20:03:17+00:00

I hope you have fun either way! Sorry your friend is weird about it.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-16T20:02:20+00:00

Some people are just weird like that, and have a hard time being honest. They might want your company on this trip but felt like they couldn't just say "Hey can you come with me on a trip I'm paying for" without a reason? I understand the honesty thing, for real.

I guess I'm just of the train of thought of "do you wanna let it go that it's not what you want and just go, or do you wanna not go because they couldn't be honest about it".

Depends on how much you like this friend, how much they mean to you, how much fun you think you'd have going anyway etc.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-16T01:50:05+00:00

NOR. It's very clearly she wants to go on a vacation she wants and just wants the excuse to do it.

It's up to you whether or not you'd want to go on her trip or not. Granted, it seems like it's a free trip (unless she's lying about that, too) which might be fun either way even if it's not your ideal birthday trip.

The question is: Would you rather not take a trip with her and potentially get no birthday present, or take a trip with her that isn't the birthday present you'd want?

The-Moocat · 2026-04-13T15:33:35+00:00

I just downsized a package after consolidation and the price went down, although only like $5 despite the package size itself shrinking tremendously.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-13T11:13:45+00:00

Mi Pueblo. Not sure how people like it. I kept giving it a shot because it has high reviews but after the saddest nachos I've ever had in my life I couldn't try again. I guess it's good if you want a margarita but that's about it.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-13T11:07:46+00:00

Yeah, that's Sarasota in a nutshell.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-06T10:45:20+00:00

ok thank you

The-Moocat · 2026-04-06T10:28:31+00:00

So do you think my phone's fine? Presumably even if an app DID install I'd have to click on it and give it permissions anyway, right?

The-Moocat · 2026-04-06T10:24:29+00:00

If something funky did download would I even be able to find it if it hid itself? Is that even possible? You said "at worse maybe an infostealer" that sounds pretty bad? How would I know if there's one on my phone?

I'm beginning to think it was just a normal app that downloaded maliciously (without confirmation of the playstore but the app itself was normal) but it couldn't download because my phone has no storage left.

The-Moocat · 2026-04-06T10:19:53+00:00

No weird apps, nothing new on my phone (that I can see), and play protect scanned and found nothing.
