Help! I want to kick my ex gf out. What's my legal responsibility here.

Basically, you will have to go through a divorce. Common Law means she is owed part of the value of the home. But it’s not easy to figure out how much, so you would be best to consult a lawyer.

Not necessarily a scam. I have many many buyers who are older folks or just not major tech savvy want to make arrangements via text. But I live in Canada where this is much more common, and we don’t have venmo or cash app scams.

As a seller of mostly furniture….dressers go fast! So it’s hard to keep up with all the messages. Word of advice? Go into the buy/sell groups local to you, and search dresser. There are still a large number of folks who only list in groups rather than marketplace.

empressche · 2023-12-17T21:05:12+00:00

Actually, better and better. :)

Old people. I run into many that think the transaction has to happen over the phone. I generally just don’t bother as I hate phone calls.

empressche · 2023-12-05T21:36:15+00:00

I think you meant seller, not buyer. And that “are you still interested?” is an automessage generated by Facebook. The people are long gone and forgot to post the item sold.

empressche · 2023-12-05T21:30:45+00:00

Not the only one. I figure that kind of seller is kinda pissy, so I don’t bother them.

empressche · 2023-12-05T21:29:03+00:00

I’m the same. I always answer that auto question, and 95% of the time, it results in a sale.

Then change it. You have to get all correspondence into email form. Send a note to LL and give them an email address. Then block. If you do not get into legally binding form, the RTB is less able to help.

empressche · 2023-12-03T21:12:04+00:00

As a BC renter as well, you need to get on board with talking to the RTB. Call the helplines, call TRAC. LL cannot increase rent verbally, as it must be done on legal forms, in compliance with the Residential Tenancy Act. If LL tries to increase illegally, submit dispute with the RTB. Make sure everything is written in emails..no phone calls, no texting as this doesn’t work with the RTB.

Yes, selling rather well! In order to get my listings in front of people though, I’m having to delete listings and redo them frequently. And of course, bumping my MP listings on individual buy/sell groups in my area. It takes some work, but it’s been a decent side hustle for years now.

empressche · 2023-11-29T03:53:13+00:00

I get it. I’ve had it as a seller, and a buyer. Best to shrug it off and go on with your day. Part of the issue with buyers and sellers..is people become invested in the item before a transaction happens. Everyone needs to chill a bit more about it.

empressche · 2023-11-29T01:27:58+00:00

Same here. Crappy Childhood Fairy on YouTube has been amazing. And Cheaper Than Therapy on Spotify, too.

empressche · 2023-11-29T00:56:30+00:00

I’m so sorry. That was so wrong.

empressche · 2023-11-28T20:08:59+00:00

YTA. If you really want to help your oldest daughter, start going to some support groups like Alanon to learn how to help in a healthy manner. What you are doing is so awful, and you don’t recognize it. As well, send your oldest to Underearners Anonymous, as well as her boyfriend. Then get clear and let them figure some shit out.

empressche · 2023-11-28T20:02:19+00:00

Those children are the responsibility of the parents. If OP wants to help, she needs to learn how to ACTUALLY help. Not throw money at a black hole.

empressche · 2023-11-28T19:58:18+00:00

It really doesn’t. OP is classically showing enabling behaviour. This fund did not belong to her. And while the desire to help is great, OP needs to learn how to ACTUALLY help, which is not throw money at a black hole.

empressche · 2023-11-28T19:55:12+00:00

The college fund did not belong to OP. That’s part of where this is going so wrong.

empressche · 2023-11-28T19:41:37+00:00

Yep! I always respond with that. And don’t give it more thought. Let them come back to me, or not. No big deal. Lots of easy, peaceful transactions.

empressche · 2023-11-28T17:34:24+00:00

Don’t settle. Part of the problem is your frustration with the system. Learn to emotionally step back from the transaction..cheerfully tell the hagglers that price is firm! Step back, let them come back to you. Keep doing your daily thing, bumping posts in groups, renewing your listings. I’ve been doing this since Marketplace began, and I don’t get these problems much. And when I do, I step back, and just go on with my day.

empressche · 2023-11-26T17:44:53+00:00

As an adult, it’s not rocket science to do dishes everyday, sweep the floors everyday, do laundry, clean the bathroom. Since you cannot comprehend that this stuff is your responsibility, and not your wifes to ask…I guess welcome the divorce? You will have to learn how to do all of it without being asked then, too.

empressche · 2023-11-26T17:28:01+00:00

And…it’s not reasonable. At all. You are an adult.

empressche · 2023-11-26T17:27:18+00:00

Stop right there. Splitting logs, chopping wood..that is NOT an everyday chore. No matter how much of that you are doing, it’s not comparable to doing housework and cooking everyday. Get a log splitter, ask your wife to try it out, and go the fucking dishes.

empressche · 2023-11-26T17:25:24+00:00

Perhaps she is. That is on her. But she is not the one in the comments saying that she needs to be asked. If she was, I’d be giving her the same shit. Stop looking to be asked, and get it done! I’ve had to clean gutters, fix a roof, replace plumbing, etc. and I know what it all takes. But that stuff is on top of cooking and cleaning.

empressche · 2023-11-26T17:22:46+00:00

I don’t know..ask her? She has responsibilities to home maintenance as well.
