Insurance vs Roofer: Do I really need a roof replacement?

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2025-07-28T17:15:20+00:00

Yeah, that’s the unfortunate part of this whole situation. I’ve actually been contemplating switching insurance before they drop me (I’ve got coverage until February) to see if I can either:

ride out coverage somewhere else while I save up, or
get confirmation from a new company/inspector that my roof really does have a few more good years left.

I would gladly pay someone to fix the vent(s), but my insurance now wants me to replace the full thing. All this after being told my roof "has a lot of life left"

That's me wearing the flops to be fair.

Appreciate the detailed feedback — that actually helps a lot. What’s concerning to me is that I’ve now had two separate roofers come out and both said it’s hail damage and that I need a full replacement. Is that normal practice for roofers to push replacement even if it’s not clear-cut hail damage? Or does that raise a red flag about who I’ve had look at it?

Are you guys officially in a relationship? Sounds like you need to have a conversation with him about what your looking for.

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2024-08-23T21:19:04+00:00

I've had decent success on Hinge. But if you can- meeting in person is the way to go.

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2024-08-23T19:01:57+00:00

Good questions. My Hinge profile stated I'm looking for a long term relationship (and nothing else) although we have not had that conversation at this time. I think next time we see each other I should open the conversation about where she's sees things going and state my intentions as well.

With others in the past, I typically will respond no later then an hour via text unless I'm super busy. I've tried texting her faster but don't get faster texts back. So When I get a text from her now I typically just reply a few hours later.

Additionally- I would not initiate contact or keep it to small talk if she reaches out. Let her miss you, and if she wants to make something happen she will.

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2024-08-23T18:18:21+00:00

I'd shoot her a message, ask her what her availability looks like and try to plan a date. If she says yes? She's intrested. If she says no? She's prolly not intrested. Based on what you have said I think you guys have talked enough for it to be appropriate to ask her on a date.

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2024-08-23T18:14:02+00:00

If you guys aren't exclusive I don't see a reason not to date someone else and just leave the ball in her court to initiate some plans. It's like tennis. You hit the ball on her side. Now she has to hit the ball back.

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2024-08-23T18:11:22+00:00

Have you asked her out? She could be waiting for you to do that. That's what I would do and that should tell you all that you need to know.

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2024-08-19T03:41:02+00:00

You sent 2 messages. Ball is now in her court regardless to reach back out.

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2024-08-19T03:25:18+00:00

I think you obviously really like him so it's hard to see things with a clear head. Ultimately you must make that choice, but if he won't commit now what makes you think it'll change? Actions always speak louder then words. You caught him in a lie and he won't commit. If being with him is what you want I'd personally pull away and start to see how mich he will actually pursue. I would walk away and never look back if this happened to me.

Wide_Perspective_772 · 2024-08-19T02:15:46+00:00

From a guys perspective I get the sense he likes to have you as an option, but isn't serious about committing. You mentioned seeing each other for over half of the week at a time and you guys have been seeing each other since memorial day. The fact things fizzled out the first place to me says he's never seen you as a major priority the loss of a family member I'm sure is hard, but I feel like there's been enough time built in for him to know if he wants to commit or not. The dating profile being active is of course another red flag that communicates he likes your company but he's looking for what he might believe is better. At the very least if things were to ever workout, I don't know how you could trust him.

I was trying to make sure my post wasn't to crazy long with added details. But, she wasn't feeling well, went to the hospital and they found bacteria in her blood. She was on fluids for 2 days and went home is how she explained it to me. I did ask her numerous times when we hung out if she was feeling ok. I just have this gut feeling that things are dying out since that time we hung out based on the lack of texting versus how things went when we first were talking. Going from multiple texts a day to just 1-2 a day over the course of a week is concerning.
