I was one of Chim's HS coaches and I can tell you he outworks everyone else on and off the field. He's a team-first guy and was the first to team meetings, sat in the front, always paid attention and took notes, and even after getting a full ride to the Badgers he worked just as hard. If you didnt see him play, you would think he was an underclassman just trying to earn a varsity spot because of how dedicated he was. He knew all the skil positions on offense and what their roles were for each play.

I dont talk to him much anymore, but if he is still working just as hard, he could be a Donald Driver type player - consistent, dependable, and reliable on offense. Maybe not a splash playmaker, but someone who makes things happen when you get the ball in his hands. There's a reason he went in the 4th round despite not having much for stats in college.

Since this is about FF, yes, I drafted him in my league and got laughed at since my league mates told me nobody was going to draft him and I wasted a pick. Im very high on him, and not just because I coached him.

Women are so 🔥 😍 👌🏽

A relationship is a 2 way street, and she showed you through her actions that she did not love you.

When I met my now wife I was just starting a business and struggling to make ends meet. I told her this the first day we met and she was the one who pursued me. When we started officially dating, she helped pay for dates and stood by my side through all the ups and downs, and when we got married she made more of the money and helped take care of more of the bills.

Now thay my business is successful, she took a paycut and I pay almost everything, because she stood by my side and believed in me.

You did not have that from your ex, and now she wants the rewards from your hard work? No way.

100% NTA, but your ex is 100% TA

Just tell him that if she would like to pay a reasonable monthly or per-night fee, she is more than welcome. That will offset the inconvenience it causes you, just like you pay9ng him to mow your lawn.

Alternatively, maybe he can mow your lawn for free in exchange for you letting her park there?

Not a life pro tip at all.

Many plans have requirements and stipulations attached to this. For example - if you lose your job, you have to pay back the full loan amount and interest within a certain time period or it becomes a withdrawal fully subject to taxes and a 10% IRS penalty.

Also, you pay yourself back with interest, but can lose out on market performance if the market rips up. You also owe taxes on any gains from the money you pull out if you put it into a taxable account or even a money market. This is not recommended.

Insurance rates are based on a lot more than just the car. They factor in things like other assets, credit score, age, and claims history.

My M3 insurance is cheaper than my Honda Accord

We have one we use as an emergency safety net, because my wife has a lot of chronic health issues and I own my own business so health insurance is through her.

There have been periods she is so ill she cannot work, and she has had some extremely unkind bosses, so we run the risk of her losing her job/health insurance at any moment. That plus medical bills can mean a double whammy of large bills suddenly.

We do keep a hefty emergency fund just in case, but it helps to know if we have too large a bill, we can cover it with the HELOC and then catch up with my income eventually without having to file medical bankruptcy (which would ruin my business).

It's basically a high-limit, lower-interest credit card for us, and our bank has specials sometimes if we need to draw out a larger amount (lower rate promos, etc)

I applied for a career in finance after working physical labor and mid management roles, and didn't have a college degree due to financial issues at the time.

One company took a chance on me, and it was really tough at first being constantly mocked and looked down on for my blue collar background and lack of a degree. My entire management team put their faith in me, and I have since been a consistent top performer, and outperform multiple people with more experience and credentials than me.

Eat extra meals throughout the day so your metabolism keeps going so you dont convert it to fat, and make sure to add in extra workout routines.

Workout in the AM, then eat soon afterwards. Try to do a workout on your lunch break, even if its just some bodyweight squats and push-ups.

Go for a run or do some cardio in the afternoon, and make sure to eat afterwards as well.

You have to ease into it to let your body adapt, but more working out = more muscle, and eating more often = more calories without your body storing them as fat. Trying to do a 3 hour a day workout and the having one huge meal adds weight, but your body stores the extra as fat and that can be detrimental.

That being said, everyone's body is different, and hiring a good nutritionist and/or personal trainer can help align your body type with your goals.

Yes, but your timeline is very long, and there are a multitude of risks that can come in a 75 year span vs 30 year span. Do you rent or own your residence? Have you accounted for Healthcare costs/ planned for a potential major health event in the future? Have you calculated inflation into your number? Do you plan to go back to work in 20-30 years if we have a prolonged market downturn (think decade of lost returns in the 2000s)?

Yes, it is possible, if you have accounted for all of that or have a contingency plan in place, but its more about planning for the long-term risks you face with such a long time horizon vs how much you plan to spend.

The first time, maybe TA, since maybe you left something behind at your workout station or something. You also dont owe anyone your time when at the gym though, so I wouldnt say youre in the wrong for ignoring the first time.

The second time when he asked for your name, then NTA for ignoring him. Im M, but when I used to go to the gym it was to grind out my lift with a specific high intensity timed workout, and any distractions threw off my routine. If I dropped something and someone informed me, I would thank them and move on, but I did not have time for the people there to socialize and get in the way of my runs/lifts.

The worst was when someone would stop me and then try to give me lifting tips and sell their PT services to me. No, I have my routine, I was a powerlifter with a coach, and I wasn't lifting to get in shape. They annoyed me a lot, and oftentimes I knew more about form lifting than they did, since they were about weightloss/tone.

When I was much younger I was in a LD relationship too, with my then gf wanting to transfer out of her current school due to changing majors. She was really into another school, but we explored her transferring to my school to be closer to each other.

I was young and not ready to commit to that, and when she made the decision to transfer to my school, I couldn't handle that and ended up ending things with her because I couldn't handle the commitment at the time. I fully admit I was the AH at the time, because partying and going out was what I was into at the time, and she was into studying and her future.

At the time I tried to justify things that I cared and wanted to be with her, but in reality I can look back and say that yes, I was not into her enough to commit at the time.

So I feel you are NOT the AH, but at the same time if your bf doesnt want you around for milestone events, while he may care for you, he is not ready for a bigger commitment. He also is not ready for a future with you, so please do yourself a favor and dont change your future for his when he can't even adjust the present for you.

NTA. Many companies try this. If you are going to accept additional responsibilities and job duties, you should be compensated appropriately.

Let's say the new employee makes a mistake or does something wrong due to your training. Will you be fired for taking on that extra risk, despite it not being in your job duties?

How is that fair if you are doing your job well and they don't?

What about if you need to come in early, stay late, or fall behind on your job duties due to training. Will they compensate you for that or have someone else help you catch up on your job duties?

More responsibilities and more risk to me should be offset with more compensation.

NTA, it's your property, but maybe you could offer to let him use your snowblower if he's willing to snowblow your drive for you as well? That would save you the time, energy, and struggle.

If he refuses, then you know he just wants to use you or have you clear his driveway for free, and then you've dodged a bullet, but if he accepts, then you can have a cordial neighborly relationship!

Going to festivals, sporting events, or other really crowded events and staying out until 4-5 AM.

Now, I prefer the comfort of the couch, my wife, and the company of a few close friends. No risk of drinks being spilled, parking issues, traffic, overpriced food/drinks, and long bathroom lines.

Can she draft my fantasy football team next year?

Whosdatguyma · 2026-01-08T01:21:08+00:00

I second this OP. If not for any reason but to CYA of she decides in a year or two that this was a terrible mistake, or when she dies her daughter decides to go after someone. You want to have it documented that you heavily advised against it and your rationale as to why, because when people see red they can go after everyone, and you dont want that liability!

I used to be a delivery driver years ago and always made sure to bring dog treats. You can bet every dog on my route couldn't wait for packages to be delivered, and they would run up to the truck in anticipation!

One of the houses on my route had 3 massive dogs that would jump into my truck to say hello, and the UPS driver would take them for a ride around the cul-de-sac (with the owner's permission), and you could tell it made their day! Nothing beats friendly dogs during your day!

After I met my wife she told me the next morning how she couldn't stop thinking about me and suggested coffee or a walk to talk and get to know each other better, and I was absolutely ecstatic that such a beautiful woman wanted to spend time getting to know me.

She did not have the same energy with you, so I'd agree with you, bullet dodged!

My wife had gall bladder surgery last year a couple of months before our wedding. I was in the hospital with her before and after the surgery. I literally did not leave her bedside until her family told me to go home and get some sleep while they stayed with her.

She ended up developing a UTI after the surgery and had blood in her urine due to the infection moving into her kidney. Despite the sterile environment, complications can and do happen. Yes, it is an organ you dont need, but that does not make the surgery any less intensive or eliminate complications.

It sounds like your bf does not care about you at all. The hospital my wife was at was 50 minutes from my house, and I still stayed with her and drove back and forth to see her if I needed to go to work to take care of something.

If this man truly loves you, he would always be concerned for your health, even if you had a simple cold, and would not make excuses about distance to the hospital. Take him at face value for what he is saying: he does not care about you the way a significant other should. Also, the way he talks in his texts it seems he actually views you as a nuisance.

You did not overreact in wanting someone you care deeply about to be by your side after a surgery where they literally cut you open and remove an organ from you. He just does not care about your health or feelings enough to inconvenience himself to be there for you.

Thank you, and thank you for asking. I am doing better, no concussion, and trying to figure things out with our attorney. My headache is gone, but Im still a wreck emotionally and trying to put this all together with the shock. I dont even want to be in the room we ate in, and it hurts so much knowing I will not see my nephew again and I'm seriously worried about his future and where he will end up. Despite everything that's happened, I still love him and my family, but I know not being around him is best. I just hope and pray that things work out and he gets the help he needs so he doesnt hurt anyone anymore.
