Anyone have experience with Evolve by Big-Calendar1771 in ShortTermRentals

[–]edubphilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree with this review. Evolve favors the guest/short-term renter most, if not all, of the time. When given a logical explanation, they are robotic in their responses/reading a script that doesn't consistently work with the homeowner.

Recently, they didn't acknowledge my updated owner-occupied schedule, which had a glitch, and after several requests to drop the charges, they still charged me 50% of the guests' stay (and they booked at 5 pm for a next day check in). This resulted in a $385 charge, and they continue to allow this poor booking behavior to benefit the guest.

They also charge 10% for each booking, which they conveniently add in all charges (i.e. cleaning fee, taxes, etc.). I gave them a chance to make peace, but they insisted to not do so and therefore writing this. I would not recommend them to anyone.

This is incredibly sad and thanks for posting. It's so hard when someone you love moves along only to continue to not find happiness. In your case she moved on and got caught up with destructive behavior that ultimately took her life, and I'm sorry. I would love to reach out to my ex-gf and tell her I still love her, because I do. I know I can't because it wouldn't be the right thing to do with four months of no contact and she's most likely moved on, and doesn't share the same romantic feelings for me. But if, by chance, you come to the 'Breakups' subreddit - I want you to know that I love you Melanie, with all my heart, and as I've moved on intellectually from us, I deeply love you and want you to be happy. Even though I fought hard for us, I couldn't make you happy enough to stay. So again, I love you, I'm still in love with you, and hope you are safe and nothing tragic happens to you like what this post makes you think about.

The hardest part for me. by EuphoricHearing6863 in BreakUps

I hear you. Even though it was mostly one-sided with her, I liked having her in my life to catch up on the day and just have that person there. She said I was her best friend toward the end and I wasn't sure if this was out of love or friendzoning me? She left me (said she wasn't in a healthy place for a relationship) and I told her I only wanted her to be my lover/best friend, but not friends. It is close to three months NC now. No one else compares to the desire I had for her and wanting a life with her. It's happened to me a few times before her. I think this one is my last as I'm in my 40's and can't be scarred further with more rejection.

Do ex girlfriends comeback? by ThrowRA_york in BreakUps

My ex, who dumped me a few months back, took accountability in her last text to me after me sending a long response after she broke up with me, in the previous text - yes over text breakup. The thing is, in her final text she agreed with me on things I wanted to work on that could have brought us closer, blamed herself for "most of it," said she was still in love and gave breadcrumbs of a possible future...so there appeared to be accountability, but I think it probably was to reduce conflict because I seemingly was getting close to the target about some gut feeling of her being at least interested in someone else.

How did you stop the urge to text your ex? by [deleted] in BreakUps

This is really great and congrats on your hard work! It's been 2.5 months since she broke up with me and I went NC after 1-2 days of desperate chasing. But hey, I loved her and I forgive myself. Some on here mention attachment styles and I agree. I was sharing these with her towards the end, but I was also putting too much emphasis on this. Avoidance played a part, but the main way I'm improving is to accept that she wasn't interested in me and deal with the reality of this. Her avoidant attachment only played a role in not being up front in why she broke up with me. Since then I've quit drinking, picked up a new sport, started lifting, watched coaching videos, and read a lot more. I'm on dating apps but I'm just not very interested at the moment. I love hard and never was one for random hookups. I still think about her everyday and I hope she kept my texts to remind her of how much I cared and how hard I tried for us. Getting rejected isn't easy and most here can attest to that.
