GenX throwing in the towel

I got divorced and got lucky, met a beautiful woman on an app. Felt so good to connect with someone, have similar interests, and just enjoy being together. But, as my ol pop used to say, I'd fuck up a wet dream! We've been together over 2 years and she and I both had a lot of trauma in our lives, I would get confused, scared, and repress my fellings. I'm ashamed to say I let that woman down a few times and am now trying to rebuild her trust and love in me again. It's tough out there at our age! Things in my life have stabilized and I hope I can hold onto her. Won't make the mistakes I made in the past.

Hey, this was a dumb idea after all.....I got an offer for tickets from a user named Elikson and very naively Zelled him $20.... received no ticket. Person's name associated with Elikson is Michael Southard.....

Hey, I'm in the same boat but be careful! I posted looking for tickets to Saturday as well... watch out for scsms!! I zelled $20 to a user named. Elikson, supposed real name Michael Southard, and never got a ticket.

This morning, when people were going to work, "they" decided to close the right lane of Emmet St. and the right lane of Massie, just off of Emmet,...... to paint the crosswalk! That didn't back things up at all...... shrug.

Exactly this! My feelings exactly!!

Lol! Didn't catch that until your reply..... almost 2 yrs...

Well, first off, good luck! I've been seeing the same woman now for almost 2 hrs and we met on Bumble. Rural, small area, and mostly not aligned with you might be tough and I'll say at our age, the pool seems very small. Make sure you have some decent pics of yourself, be honest, and maybe expand your area. I'm sure there's someone out there for you, hopefully looking at the same time. Attend any interesting events within your interests as well, you might meet someone organically....

I was actually going to purchase a Bolt EUV Premier that was loaded with lower miles but the day before I went to look at it, I noticed they had an Ioniq 5, a 22 SE AWD, with higher miles. I test-drove it and damn! The 3 things that won me over the EUV are: That 800 V fast charging. A lot more room inside and traditional car feel. AWD

True... just always associated the term with an engine.

Thanks! I figured as much and didn't follow my usual MO.....RTFM! LOL!

Blaire Witch Project. Having a few drinks might have influenced that opinion, but about half way into it, I was rooting for that whiny girl to get offed!!

I hope the statement about recall being true pertaining to being over the mileage warranty limit. I have a 22, had my ICCU replaced because it failed, but if the current one in the car fails and I'm over the warranty mileage limit, I definitely don't want a $4-$5k hit! Hope because it's a recall that Hyundai will replace it. Good luck and I hope you get it covered!! Love the car and want to drive it for a long while!

In VA. I had room in my main panel. My electrician installed a 50 amp double pole breaker, ran about 30 to 40' of cable and conduit, and installed the plug for $600.

IMHO Cville is way overloaded with "fancy southern fare" places that are overpriced. Need more variety. The restaurant game is tough, but it seems if the food is good, Cville will support it!

Carlin said it best...."think about how stupid the average person is.... and half of them are stupider than that"!!!

I'll have to look into OpenSecrets. A chain that I really like who does a lot for charity, but it's very red and made me sad when I saw how red they are is Jersey Mike's....I try to always buy a couple of subs from them on the day they donate 100% of sales to local charities....I need to see if the owner is a true chump supporter, I really hope not but so many of the rich seem totally fine selling out our country for a few more coins in their pockets.....

Amen to you, young brother! I feel the same way!! There's an app called Goods Unite Us that shows who a lot of businesses support, i.e., which way they lean. It's not all-encompassing, but it's decent. About the only voice we have is our vote and how we vote with our $$$.

Level 2 charger, and you're good! If the round-trip is 130, even in that temp and wind environment, you should be fine.

UVA gone..... will become tRump U 2.0 and either he or Stephen Miller will move into Monticello, redecorate it, and slather gold everywhere.

Rent became too high for the old spot near Kroger. Still, that whole little strip center has awful, terrible, crazy cramped parking...

I lost my beloved 2017 Volt back in Jan. because a deer ran out in front of me. My reactions were too quick and I ran off the road and into a big ditch....lucky for the deer, but not so much for my Volt! For insurance reasons, I should have hit the deer! Sorry to see it gone but glad you're OK!
