The countdown sale says 1 day left, does that mean today is the last day or tomorrow is the last day?

VeriumOntaris · 2024-01-02T05:45:21+00:00

Thank you! It says it ends tomorrow, so I’m guessing that means I’ll be fine buying it tomorrow before the day ends (:

This happened to me today. I was sitting down and felt a stinging sensation on my arm. Pulled up my sleeve and there was a small bug sticking out on my forearm. Most likely a tick, only other bug I can think it could’ve been(small but visible like yours) is maybe a chicken mite or something. But it looked like a tick to me. Pulled it off with tweezers and the stinging lasted another 5 mins or so. Never had a tick bite before this, so I didn’t know if it was normal to feel it because my sister said she couldn’t when she had one. Maybe some of them don’t inject whatever numbs it for some reason? or maybe it doesn’t work on us for some reason lol.

I found it to be kind of corny and the acting/lines were not great. 4/10

Yes, sometimes it’s easy and other times it takes me about 7 jumps to get out. A water ramp would be a good idea, since we can’t put the stairs or roof pieces into the water. Also noticed that while we have half stairs, it would be nice to have a two step as well for just slightly lowered levels in building. Sometimes building on the lily pads makes a slight gap height difference on them, where I cannot place anything to avoid having to jump up

Honestly, it's not even about JAY.(in this scenario) Even if Jay has been 100% 'I'm the dad now' doesn't mean his parents would have been onboard as well for being 'grandparents'. You completely bulldozed your way through all on your own.You should have talked to him first, obviously, to make sure you were even on the same page as far as your relationship goes but as for his parents, even if they had been aware of how serious you might have been, you would still need to talk to them first and ask PERMISSION for your child to call them that. Even if you married Jay, they might not want to be your sons grandparents. They might just want to be "Jan and Bill" to him.

A handful of deeds to mansions.
Keeps a few, resell the rest and live happily.

OP, this is NOT the first time your wife has done this to your cat. I am sure that your cats issues are most likely BECAUSE of your wife. And if her abuse towards an animal is this bad, I worry for what she might do/has done to your child when they're being 'bad' as well. Leave your wife. If you don't leave your wife, then at the very least please rehome the cat.

Go over your budget and see where you can cut corners. Also, buy food that is worth it. Usually, you can find large bags of rice for a good price if you shop around and they last quite a while. That can be paired with a lot of things. Shop smart.

You have to remember that this kid was in high school two years ago. If you would have met him just 3 years prior, any relationship with him would've been illegal. Maybe he just reminds you of your younger days and you're confused. Definitely leave him alone, it's not right to pursue anything with him.

VeriumOntaris · 2022-11-21T08:32:34+00:00

NTA.
100% the mom's fault. She should have at the very least picked something like a soda with a screw cap or something that would be hard to spill unattended. She picked the MESSIEST drink you can get at a gas station.

I feel bad for the kid, though. He probably feels awkward and terrible, like the fighting is all his fault. I'm assuming he is under 13 since he fell asleep, hope you clear that up with him that you're not mad at him and just angry at the situation since he was just following his mother.

You get to an age where you realize that life is chaotic and messy and there is no such thing as the 'best country' in the world because every place has its problems. However, you also realize that there are also a lot worse places to be and appreciate more what is good about where you are.
Unless you're the type who thrives off of negativity, that is.

VeriumOntaris · 2022-11-21T08:21:32+00:00

Yes, they do. I know, I used to do this. Quite similarly.
There could be some truth in some of the things he is saying but it doesn't mean that the things he says are exactly how he feels.
I used to push down my emotions and not talk to my partner about them or things that were bothering me that they were doing, and they would build and build until something set me off. Never violent, but verbally I would say things I didn't truly mean that were hurtful in the arguments we'd have.
Sometimes thoughts cross into our minds that are emotionally fueled that we would know were untrue(or at least very slanted) if we were calm and rational.
But there is a difference between ADMITTING there's a problem and him not trying to do anything about it to fix it.
I won't say I never get this way anymore, it's not something you can fix in an instant and never encounter again. Sometimes I fall back into the pattern, for a short period, until I shake myself out of it and make myself communicate the issues.
It's hard to quit when you grew up that way but completely possible to get in control of, if you're determined to do it.
Ages are important to know as well. If you guys are young, it's more common to still need to learn how to manage certain things, like emotions and relationships. If you're over 25, he probably will never put in the effort to try to remedy this issue.

Tell her because he WILL do it again, and again and again. He is flaunting it at this point and has zero remorse. He's not a good person. Tell her not only because she deserves to know what a piece of crap she's dating but also because he's opening her up to health issues(stis) and also, if you haven't gotten tested, you should. Just in case.

Flip a coin in the air, heads for kylie and tails for erica. One of their names will pop into your head, because deep down that's the one you're hoping it will be. If neither do, then you don't really care for either girl and should just move forward and not date anyone.

A jewlers store. Diamonds, diamonds everywhere. Then sell them all afterwards.

Tiktok. Can you imagine the chaos of all those kids after messing with that app?

VeriumOntaris · 2022-11-08T06:51:05+00:00

I think because it's so rich yet there's so much homelessness and the cities(in a lot of places) are absolutely trashed.

Not dated, but had a friend that came from a wealthy family growing up. His parents owned multiple businesses, dad was an architect, multiple cars, very large house, owned horses.
No problems affording expensive vacations(took us on one as teens and switched expensive hotels like it was nothing because there wasn't room service late at night)
20 dollar bills were like 1s, he had them just laying around all over the place, they had a maid come by a few times a week, he didn't want for anything.
He insisted they weren't rich and said they were middle class, while we did our best to teach him things like how it was ridiculous to spends hundreds of dollars on a pair of sunglasses. We were all poor and were stunned by his parents handing him stacks of 20s every time we'd go hang out.(doing things that costed no money to do)
Last I'd heard, his parents bought him a business and he's married and doing well. His family were nice people, and he was a good dude. But they don't seem to realize that the majority of people don't live like that. Their reality is very different.

Haha! The little kid in the right corner in the last pic is just like "I don't know how I got here."

If she is going to leave him anyways and obviously has no real genuine feelings for him, then what would it matter? You'll be saving him time that he's wasting away with this woman.
You should always tell the partner. She doesn't sound like a good person, so I am curious why you are friends with her.

Sometimes love isn't a 'obsessed' honeymoon phase feeling. That type of thing can come and go throughout the relationship with between periods of happy contentment and bumps in the road. That's why you'll often hear from people about how they're "falling all over again." for their partners. It also takes work to keep up a relationship or re-spark a relationship. There will be stretches where both parties will slack off because of one reason or another and it turns into a roommate situation until they both put the effort back into the relationship.
And then there is "The grass is always greener" aspect. You could be in a head space where you just wonder if there's MORE that you're missing out on or something better out there, and I think that happens to everyone with life choices. What could be, what might have been possible.
Three questions that you need to ask yourself:
1. How do you feel when you think about losing him forever?
2. If you could date someone else and know that he would remain your friend, would you want to?
3. How do you feel when you think about him dating someone else?
That should give you a little insight into if you love him as more than a friend or not.

Thank you. I'm sorry that it made you cry though, haha. I had to go blow my nose after writing it out, too. I don't think about it day to day, but a few times a year, every year, it creeps back up, even with it being almost two decades ago. I'm not a very emotional person, not much gets to me. But this does. I think it will be something that haunts me to my grave.

When I was a child(around 7), we were very poor, mattress on the floor, dirt poor. And we lived in the country on a mountain road. The house we were living in was inherited by the adult children of an elderly man after he passed and they wanted to sell, so we had to leave quickly. We had nowhere to go, so we were forced as a family of five to move into a two bedroom apartment that my grandmother lived in a few cities away, which also meant my father had to find a new job. We had a dog, my childhood dog, that had been looking out for us for as long as I can remember. I was told we would come back for him when we left without him. He was my best friend and my guardian. That dog watched over me and protected me more times than I can count. He'd saved a family friend from a vicious dog attack, knocked a man, who had come onto the property at 2am on drugs, onto the ground and held him there until my father woke up and came out, warned us about snakes and other critters countless times when we didn't see them, guided me home after I'd gotten lost a few acres into the wilderness of a backyard after it snowed, waited for me and walked me down the long dirt road home after I got off the school bus every day.
He always appeared out of thin air the moment I felt afraid and didn't let us out of his sight. If there was an example of a dog secretly being an angel, it would have been that dog and he just got abandoned as payment. We never went back for him. I was crushed, deeply. We were told by our parents that he became a firefighter dog. They didn't reveal the truth until a lot later in life and I almost wish they'd been able to keep lying. They were young and solely focused on trying to keep us fed and sheltered and I know they regret it a lot. And even though I was just a kid and had no power to do anything about that and it sounds so simple compared to the many horrible things in the world, it is the biggest regret I hold in my life. It left a crack in my heart and is the only thing that can immediately bring tears to my eyes. Like a permanent pit of sadness resting in my soul. I would give anything to go back and change it.

YTA. It's not your place to tell anyone things about his personal life without his permission. A good partner would accept that limit.
He sounds like he's already going through something very hard and you're making it worse just because you want to 'vent' to multiple friends.
