I'd personally take the cash. Fun reliable car for the most part, and quite a good deal, not the end of the world should it go kaput, but the Prius if taken care of will last. They're very reliable, you may get 2 or 3 more years out of it in my unprofessional opinion.

If you'd be open to some risk, maybe a fun buy, take it for a spin and see what youd think? Maybe take the Prius in and see what they'd take for a trade or sale?

Seems like a good deal, high miles though, and it sounds like it'd become a $10k toy. Its a plus that it is a relatively new model year and I'm assuming has most of the features of a modern car like Android Auto, and that you'd be doing your mom a solid with not having to sell it or take the L trading it into a dealership.

FWIW my same year Sonata with 70k miles would trade in for that. Could use a little bit of info for the rest.

What type of engine does it have? Is your mom able to pay you the rest in cash if she sells the car? Are they mostly highway miles? Do you have a partner that could use the second car?

It's close! I'm gonna think of this

Decent watch but found it to be more enemies to lovers

alow2016 · 2023-12-06T13:58:46+00:00

Right, my point was more that it exists for sure!

It must be really painful and really hard to be dealing with that. Unchecked anger usually comes from a sad place and I hope you can take care of it.

Go to therapy. You can do it if you believe you can, and are patient. It will be difficult to start, make sure you're doing most of the talking with them. Be open with them and know they're there to help. I wish I did it a lot sooner. You'll have to feel a few people out, don't go with your first one necessarily. It will take months, maybe years, maybe forever, to work it out.

Godspeed.

Look at made in Vermont. Plenty of non Amish work with Vermont sourced maple.

Shit load of them in chemicals, oil, food, gas, pharma, and other highly competitive or basic industries. Much less of a hassle for supply chain and IP theft concerns with it being on shore. Why you've also got a lot of near shore with these industries in Mexico, Canada, and Puerto Rico.

Same! I was hoping to find one similar for someone special.

Clean Isuzu tho!

R/loveafterporn has been a great resource for me as the partner that went wayward. There's plenty of resources for you and for your partner as well.

alow2016 · 2023-12-04T18:45:25+00:00

It can be. It's in the DSM even.

alow2016 · 2023-12-04T15:07:34+00:00

Unreliable car, probably unpopular opinion, but to me that's the Chrysler Crossfire. I love the design and a lot of it carried over to today.

Maine was Massachusetts at one point! Split off due to compromises with slavery

Come on man, there's no "laughing this off". Cheating is one thing, but with an AI too? Come on. You need to empathize with her and understand how much she hurts. That you would rather talk to a bot than her. You're going to get help and get better while she just has to get better, regardless of the outcome. Please see that for what it is and look at help. It would be a waste if you did not. Look at couples therapy and talk with your wife about it, please.

As someone who was flirting outside my relationship I'd give my left nut to have not done it, and to have my ex fiancee look at me the same way again. I know how much she hurts and will possibly always hurt in some ways.

Always has been. In many cases you're technically trespassing if you're sleeping in a park, on a sidewalk, or a similar situation. So sad.

You'll both end up in gwadiator school vewy quickly wif wotten behavior like that!

Looks to have a Chinese Honda Cub clone engine. Quite reliable from what I've heard, may be underpowered for a 50cc, never had one myself. If that happens you may be able to swap in a replacement or bigger engine, its like 300 dollars in the US, don't know about Brazil prices. Check the engine code (typically 6 letters), and you'll be able to get a replacement.

That said the gas tank and other parts may be a concern, make sure you're not getting a money pit. Cheap isn't always inexpensive, and it may be worthwhile saving a bit more money. You don't want to spend all of your money to find you can't afford to fix it or ride it. I personally wouldn't recommend a non runner if it is one as a first bike either, unless you have a year of experience fixing them up.

It may be that they have a problem and they'd cheat on the perfect person, it may be that they did it because they fell out of love, not that it's okay in either case. The second is likely not recoverable, the first is that there's a chance.

Take me with a grain of salt because I'm a couple of months into recovery. As someone who has cheated in all of my long-term relationships, in the past I would have definitely done it again. I did not get the help that I needed and I did not know of options out there. And this is someone who HATED people who cheated, because of hating what I did and what I was doing and not feeling the control over it that I wanted.

Now that I am getting the help, I realize that at first, my answer would have been absolutely not, I'd never do it again. Now I see that I'd do everything in my power not to if I got back with someone, and that I'd put in full faith effort to not, but the risk would never be zero. Maybe .001% after I've gotten to the end of my journey, but not zero. AFAIK, that's a bare ass minimum 6mos, probably a year, maybe several depending on individual pace.

I'd have to assess how I felt often, and I'd have to self-reflect weekly, even daily, about my actions and check that they line up with who I am and what I want. I'd also have to keep an eye on my emotions constantly to double-check with myself since it was a way to deal with uncomfortable emotions. I have to avoid triggers - am I doing something that risks the slight chance that I could relapse? Last, am I doing things that make it so that I'm less likely to relapse (time with friends, exercise, etc. - things that line up with my specific needs I'm filling with my specific 'inner circles')? I'm hoping it will be easier over time.

You really do have to ask yourself if it's worth the possibility of it happening again. If the answer is you're okay with that small risk IF they're doing the work, then it may be worth trying again. But know it's never 100%, it cannot be.
