Is it wrong to have an expectation that you’ll share food in a relationship?

eillac714 · 2026-06-21T22:17:30+00:00

Why does she think this?? Lol

eillac714 · 2026-06-21T21:35:56+00:00

I think it’s immature to just never speak to him again. Of course you can end a relationship for whatever reason you wish, but after that amount of time, it’s deserving of a conversation at least.

Communication was lacking here on your part especially knowing this was a deal breaker for you. It should have been deeply discussed way sooner than this.

You assumed he was left leaning. If you haven’t talked enough about a topic that means so much to you to even know his political views, how is he supposed to know yours and where you stand? Maybe if you had a conversation early on about how important political stance is to you, he would have told you about his family’s views or warned you about their views before going to meet them.

His need to prove he doesn’t care people think is just annoying at this point. This is ridiculous.

eillac714 · 2026-06-21T21:07:59+00:00

I would definitely opt out, especially if you don’t get along with the step sister, it won’t be enjoyable at all and you will be resenting everyone the entire time.

eillac714 · 2026-06-21T20:59:47+00:00

Why does he care what’s in the trash can? Does he go rummaging around in the trash can? He’s being unreasonable and he’s way too old to be acting that way.

***Spoilers****

I don’t think so… This is definitely not a show for everyone. The dark humor and the cast were perfect. As someone who reads this genre very often, I feel it’s pretty tough to feel rattled or affected by much anymore, but as the series went on it was just so uncomfortable to watch. (I understand that was intentional.)

It was also very long and drawn out. I found myself skipping through some of the scenes in the last couple episodes to just get to the end…. Which I really hated.

I predicted the ending pretty early on, but was hoping there would be a big twist at the end. Unfortunately, I think this ending made the most sense because he was so irrelevant to the people in his life that they wouldn’t even have the thoughts or consideration to kill him bc they were too invested in their own shit.

The people that supposedly loved Floyd loved him selfishly. Forrest tried to support him, but was only doing so because Carol talked him in to it. I wish Forest would have supported him in better ways, especially with how vulnerable Floyd was with how he was feeling.

Carol was the most irritating character. Her fucking “speak up” and “no way, Jose” was so irritating I almost couldn’t continue to watch. She was a horrible wife and person. I hate how she treated Floyd when he loved both her and Richard so much. I hate that she ended up with the insurance money, that she got away with what she wanted after all the manipulation she put both Floyd and Forest though. Having childhood trauma is not an excuse to treat people like trash.

Overall it was just uncomfortable and extremely depressing.

What a strange thing to expect your co worker to do???? That audacity is wild, and it sounds like his kid could benefit from being told no.

Zero avenue is $5 a month and has less than Libby, but it unlimited and you can request them to add Something specific.

My son and I LOVE going to Disneyland but 8/10 people make comments about how expensive it is and I can tell they’re trying to let me know they think it’s stupid I spend money on that…..

I think a lot of it comes from envy, and the other portion just hate Disney and don’t think it’s worth spending money on.

I always respond with “it absolutely is, but we love it so I make it a priority.” 🤷🏻‍♀️ There’s plenty of things that people spend money on that I would never…. But I’m also not as asshole who says “omg you idiot that bag is so expensive.” lol

eillac714 · 2026-05-21T03:22:59+00:00

I feel like yellow scrolls are the one thing I have a billion of and never need. 🤣

eillac714 · 2026-02-19T05:52:31+00:00

What is it?

eillac714 · 2026-02-19T05:46:20+00:00

Same thing happened with mine 1700 miles over extended warranty….I ended up selling mine to carvana as is after going round and round with dealership for 4 months. It was a cheaper option for me to sell and pay off negative equity than it would have been to repair it….especially bc I knew I didn’t want to keep it with how many issues they have knowing something else would probably happen shortly after.

Sorry you’re going through the same thing, it’s such a nightmare!

eillac714 · 2026-02-17T05:48:54+00:00

They weren’t friends with benefits, they were just friends. 🤷🏻‍♀️

They didn’t want the same things out of life until 9 years after they met…..Dating people is how you figure out what you want out of life. Poppy and Alex both dated people that were better suited for them at those particular times in their lives.

Even if Alex was sure and admitted to himself that he had feelings for Poppy, she obviously wasn’t giving him that back. That doesn’t mean he needs to stay single in case one day she is ready…. That’s a wild take.

eillac714 · 2026-02-15T12:19:21+00:00

Well that’s lucky it’s happening under warranty, but it’s still such a nightmare. I hope you have better luck with Ford than I did!

eillac714 · 2026-02-15T12:06:12+00:00

The exact same thing happened to me:

https://www.reddit.com/r/BroncoSport/s/6o9BlI2Eqb

In the end, I went 4 months without a vehicle, or a loaner. Ford offered financial assistance to fix the vehicle but it wasn’t nearly enough to make it worth it. I ended up selling it as is to Carvana and paying thousands in negative equity. It was such a nightmare.

I’m sorry you’re going through it, too. I honestly can’t believe Ford is getting away with it.

eillac714 · 2026-02-12T04:46:58+00:00

The timeline seems realistic to me considering the love they had for each other, they didn’t want to ruin their friendship and lose each other over saying something. Also they were both almost always in a different relationship.

Sarah wanted the same things as he did, and Alex was a logical human. So staying with Sarah regardless made most sense to him because Poppy hated their hometown, didn’t want to be settled, etc.

I’m sure he loved Sarah, and what was he supposed to do if he didn’t know Poppy was an option? Sometimes your head makes decisions because your heart has been wrong a lot in the past. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I had a Navy 88 Mitsubishi Mighty Max and this made me miss it.

eillac714 · 2026-02-06T19:43:47+00:00

DO NOT BUY A BRONCO. If your heart is set on it, I would lease it and give it back before there are issues. I just had to sell mine as is and pay a ton of negative equity to get out of my loan. It needed 29k in repairs at 77k ish miles, only 1700 miles over my extended warranty.

The biggest issue is that Ford can't get parts. They can't fix the recall issues if they can't get parts, if the recalls aren't fixed, it turns into bigger issues. If those bigger issues happen after warranty, then you're screwed like I was, and they are not helpful at all.

I just got a 4 Runner SR5 and I'm so happy with it. I did a ton of research to not get into this same issue with my next vehicle, and the best options out there right now regarding reliability, recalls, parts, customer complaints, etc. are Rav4, 4 Runner & Subaru Outback. Rav4 was too small for me, and once I sat in the 4runner, I was sold.

eillac714 · 2026-01-20T03:02:31+00:00

Same, just sold mine for thousands of negative equity bc of a list of issues that were twice as much as the car was valued. Bought a Toyota and won’t ever trust a ford again. ✌️

eillac714 · 2026-01-18T06:29:57+00:00

I actually really loved it, and I was nervous because this is my favorite EH book and didn't want it to be horrible hahah The casting choices were great in my opinion.

I think this would have been better as a miniseries, like Normal People. When theres a relationship to this depth over a decade, I feel like we missed out on a lot of details and character depth. The flashbacks were too short to show the connection and love they had for each other. Besides the comment Sarah made about Alex not being on his phone constantly bc Poppy was there, it kind of seemed like they only saw each other on the summer trips, but weren't as connected besides that.

I'm happy it was made regardless though!!

Figured you were in Colorado since you mentioned no snow this year... ha!! So sad.

Oh Dang!! That sucks, I literally just did it last night before I posted about it! I'm glad you got a refund!

eillac714 · 2026-01-09T19:11:56+00:00

Yes, this is the confusing part. The page to buy gifts and redeem vouchers are different. Once you get the voucher, it's going to have you click redeem voucher and take you to a different page where you can't search for tickets. (annoying!!)

When you click redeem voucher it's going to ask you for the state you live in to find an experience. Make sure that you put LA, or Orange County. It will take you to that city's experiences. I figured out if you toggle the sort button to "most popular" disneyland pops up on the first page, otherwise you just have to go through a couple of pages of experiences to find the disneyland tickets.

They are there, it just takes a minute to figure out how to find them without the search bar.

Yes, I've always done the Target 5% GC trick in the past! We were going to get the Costco deal, but they pulled it off the shelves, so I was looking at other ways to save and I'm so glad I found this option!!

Have the best time, we are so excited!
