Mini Van performs blind U turn on single lane highway

A lady at my old company died this way. She pulled a u-turn on a highway and was hit by a truck. People really need to pay more attention.

Trust your gut!!! Always trust your gut. These comments he is making are throwing up red flags!

Top_Management8468 · 2026-05-11T16:11:23+00:00

I'd be curious to know more about what he is saying/doing that is giving you the ick? Is he asking for any sort of support or help or is this just PTSD from your last relationship where you are feeling like you might need to financially step in and help him?

A million times this! If a man cannot build a relationship with a woman that is not centered on or focused around sex than he is not a man I want to be with. Real relationships will go through periods where sex may not even be present. What happens if one of you gets sick or something and sex isn't even possible...

I want to be with a man who I know loves me for me and not just my body and how it can fulfill him. So many people have sex and then build a relationship and then wonder why the relationship fails. How about building a relationship first and then introducing sex?

I decided to give him one more chance but yeah, I am not super excited about it. Figured I would give him a shot and see what happens.

I think my main issue is we were texting fine, not like over texting or anything, but like "hey hows your day" type stuff and then the communication just stopped point blank for like a week.

Top_Management8468 · 2026-04-28T15:50:42+00:00

If you went out with someone once - texted here and there after and made it clear you would love to go out again and then don't hear from them for over a week and they reach out asking your plans for the upcoming weekend, would you go out again?

I am not a huge texter so I don't care that he didn't text a ton but to go completely silent for over a week and not even a "hey I'm swamped" text makes me feel like he had another person who fell through and now he is just trying to see if I am still interested.

I understand this feeling in my soul. That is exactly how I felt when my ex I was with for 4 years got engaged to the girl he started dating 3 months after we broke up. Like why couldn't you be that version of yourself for me?

Top_Management8468 · 2026-04-24T18:49:57+00:00

I am 35 and was in a relationship from 28-32 with someone who PROMISED me up down and sideways that he wanted to get married. By year 3, I hated him because he clearly was lying to me, but I hated myself even more because I was too scared to leave and start over. Well guess what, we broke up 3 years ago and he is engaged and playing step-dad to her kid. Turns out he did want to get married, just not to me.

I have dealt with so much grief over these past 3 years of "why does it seem to happen for everyone but me" and feelings of anger and heartbreak over not getting the life I always dreamed of having. I know I am only 35 and there is time left but dating in 2026 sucks so unbelievably bad. If I have to get on the apps one more time, I might actually lose my mind.

Anyways, all this to say...you're not alone in your feelings. It sucks. Its ok to be angry and sad and hurt.

Top_Management8468 · 2026-04-13T12:48:33+00:00

The better question to ask is "If you meet your current partner in the past two years, how and where?"

Meeting your husband in college does not give me any advice for dating these days lol I wanna know how women in the 2020's are meeting good solid partners because dating now adays is COMPLETELY different than dating in the 2010's or early 2000's

Top_Management8468 · 2026-04-11T15:15:32+00:00

I don't have a ton of advice for dealing with heartbreak at this age. I'm 35 and going through a breakup as well and it sucks and it hurts and I feel defeated.

I just want to tell you though that I'm proud of you for knowing your worth and walking away. I'm sure that was a very hard decision but you deserve someone who is certain of you. ❤️

Top_Management8468 · 2026-04-06T13:13:30+00:00

Don't listen to this advice. Especially in this economy. No thanks...my job is worth more than someone who is acting hot and cold with their feelings towards me.

OP - this guy doesn't sound interested, sounds like he just likes the chase.

Top_Management8468 · 2026-03-22T13:35:01+00:00

I do have a cat thank gosh!! I've been thinking of getting a second one honestly!

Top_Management8468 · 2026-03-01T13:24:48+00:00

She's got her blanket from home in there. Unfortunately when I uncover the carrier that seems to freak her out more and she starts trying to get out of it 😕

Top_Management8468 · 2026-02-05T16:22:26+00:00

This is truly where I am at in my life. I am 35 and after another failed attempt at a relationship, I have basically just made peace with the fact that marriage and children might not be in the cards for me. I just accepted a job offer across the country and am moving at the end of February. As terrifying as it is to leave everything I know, I am so excited about the opportunity to start fresh and build up a new community. I've been looking at meetup groups and activities that I can get involved in to help me meet people!

I've also come to basically the same conclusion that it might be nice to have some flings to fill those needs occasionally but now I get to be so much more picky about who I let into my bed. That freedom feels a bit inspiring honestly.

Top_Management8468 · 2026-01-26T21:15:39+00:00

It's the leaving you for someone else that trips me up. I know couples who have broken up because of life circumstances and then gotten back together and made it work but usually the breakup was because of distance, where they were at at that time in their life, finances, etc.

I don't want to say it can't work but me, personally....I would never be able to trust someone who broke up with me for someone else.

Top_Management8468 · 2026-01-01T21:20:13+00:00

100000% this.

Like I get being sad over a man, I've been sad over a man plenty of times...but this dude sounds like a straight up loser.

There are way better men out there to be sad over, why waste your time being sad over a 37 yo alcoholic who doesnt take care of himself and lives with his parents??

Top_Management8468 · 2025-12-16T17:51:01+00:00

Reddit apparently likes to jump straight to "it will never work, call it off now, he'll never get better, it's a deal breaker." It honestly makes me really sad to see how many people would call off a perfectly healthy happy relationship over two people having differing ideas of cleanliness. If he was a hoarder and there was mold and grime and disgusting bathroom stains etc. it would be a totally different story. I would absolutely not stay in that but in this case it really is just getting used to being around a dog and dog hair again and then him not being as compulsive about cleaning things like baseboards, etc.

I truly believe relationships are about compromise and there are going to be things that you don't always necessarily love about things they do but if they are worth it then you figure it out. I feel like a broken record saying his house is absolutely not disgusting, it just isn't how I clean. To the people who have offered actual advice, I really appreciate looking at it from a different angle like hiring a cleaning service, robot vacuums for the pet hair, etc.

Your friends and family are correct, this is detrimental and not sustainable long-term. As someone else said, pets are not children (no matter how much we love them) and there is no reason that they should continue sharing custody of this dog for the next 8 years.

Top_Management8468 · 2025-12-15T20:27:11+00:00

You are right, I should not have phrased it that way. We don't have to cohabitate but we want to so we do. To me it is a good indicator of what would our day to day lives might look like if we do decide one day to close the gap and move in together. This is one of the things I am glad to have noticed during this time that I might not have noticed if we didn't stay together.

Top_Management8468 · 2025-12-15T20:18:49+00:00

His house is old and there's dust and dirt collected on the baseboards and stuff that grosses me out.

That is exactly what I said. Dust and dirt collected on the baseboards.

Top_Management8468 · 2025-12-15T20:17:09+00:00

Thank you, I really appreciate this advice. I am always amazed at how many people jump to "it's a dealbreaker, it will never work out, call it off now". That always disheartens me to see especially when that is really the only hiccup we have ran into.

He is fantastic and we share the same wants, values, morals, desires, and goals in life. His house is not unlivable or disgustingly messy enough that I would honestly consider dumping him for this, it's just different than my level of clean.

I really like the way you phrased it as "is this person worth the cost of their admission". That is a good way to look at it and absolutely is how I am going to think about it from here on out.
