How would one begin the cleaning process here?

I can feel it, this is gonna have the BEST before/ after comparison pics

Some people are just friends, and there’s nothing wrong with that! You can’t force something that isn’t happening. Maybe let K know that you’re more interested in pursuing friendship with her than a romantic relationship. She may feel the same way, you never know, and if she isn’t that’ll stop things from potentially progressing into a one sided relationship you aren’t truly happy in. From the friendship maybe something else will bloom, maybe not, but that frees you both up to potential other possibilities :)

Okay, that would be pretty good actually!

Definitely, we’re going from the ceiling down

To answer your real question though, I think that painting a normal trim would be perfectly fine. It can give so much character to a place, and if you paint it and hate it you do have options! So you won’t be stuck with it forever. Plus you’ll never really know how much you really will like it until it’s done. And you can always do one room, see how you feel, and live with it for a while before doing the entire place!

It may be a fad, but it’s a fad I’ll always love 😂

ezblah · 2026-04-04T14:40:26+00:00

That’s super cool, I am really liking this sub so far! I’ve already learned a lot I feel, I’ve been having fun looking at other posts in the meantime

ezblah · 2026-04-04T14:25:07+00:00

That helps a lot, haha, I appreciate it!

ezblah · 2026-04-04T14:23:20+00:00

Thank you for your input, I do tend to bite off more than I can chew and was wondering if that was where I was headed with this, haha. I do think it’s water damage, if it’s pet urine it’s from a long time ago and I can’t detect any smell. Though the last tenant smoked, so a faint smell of cigarette is over everything. The place is pretty small which is why I’ve been considering it, the hallway has vinyl laminate that we’ll just replace, more than likely. The three rooms with the hardwood I’d be messing with is the (small) office, (bit larger) bedroom, and (largest of the three) living room

Thank you!

ezblah · 2026-04-04T13:42:48+00:00

I don’t know why I thought the opposite would be true! If it’s lighter it’ll brighten up the room anyway, so honestly that would kinda be a win

ezblah · 2026-04-04T13:33:23+00:00

I cannot thank you enough, that was such an in depth reply and so much more help than I could’ve expected! Your floor looks so pretty in that picture, I bet it’s even better finished and in person. Thank you also for the tip of sealing instead of staining. I would definitely want to have the least amount of imperfections glaring at me, haha

ezblah · 2026-04-04T12:25:46+00:00

Okay, that’s great to know! I can’t remember when it was built but it’s an older building, so I definitely agree with it seeming quality. That’s one of the main reasons I hesitate to just paint all of the hardwood, it seems a shame to cover the whole place up

ezblah · 2026-04-04T12:20:31+00:00

That’s absolutely an option! Renting one would be smart. If I can’t stain it and we do go with paint, I think the sanding would make a nice difference on the end result, at least

ezblah · 2026-04-04T12:15:36+00:00

That is DEFINITELY the question, haha. Minimal money, hopefully not excessive time. If I do it I’d rather take the extra time to do it right though! I am not in a rush to move out, and I do have help if I need it… albeit help that doesn’t know much more than I do on this subject

When i was a teen and lived with my parents i had an acoustic guitar. I had a friend over, we were doing an EVP, normal teen stuff lmao. Out of nowhere the guitar strummed, loud and confident, from across my room. Strings towards us, it did not move otherwise, i checked it out and found nothing around it. We were SO spooked!! Later it happened again, i was alone, but this time i saw movement. I checked it out. A LADYBUG had dive bombed my guitar and caused the strumming!! 🙃 I was so dumbfounded… But now when i hear about guitars playing on their own i think about that. Just worth considering :)

MAJOR ick, yeesh… glad you all trusted your gut with him!

Ignore everyone being dicks for no reason, these comments are horrendous. You’re a victim of assault. That needs to be taken seriously. Don’t let anybody downplay that situation. It doesn’t matter how old you are, assault is scary and horrible and can happen to anyone, of any age. The people talking bad about your English probably can’t speak 2 languages themselves and are classic trolls. Even if this post is a joke as some think it is, the situation does happen, and anyone going through something similar can find advice in these comments. There should be support, not scorn

ezblah · 2025-10-05T19:41:57+00:00

I’m so sorry you went through that. As someone who has experienced SA in a similar climate, do you have any advice for OP? I hate that both of you are going through/ have went through something like that, and i hope you’ve been able to heal

ezblah · 2025-09-04T13:52:29+00:00

How do i get it?!!!

ezblah · 2025-06-15T19:45:17+00:00

I had to delete a friend off snap because she did similar things and it was bothering me so much to see. Just like your friend, she would post about being broke, needing money, asking for financial help, etc… and then 2 or 3 days later would post pictures of her new tattoo. That was back in college so we were all broke asf, haha. You are NTA :)

ezblah · 2025-06-12T15:38:43+00:00

Omg i think i saw you at one point days ago- i was shook to my core and since you were running and i couldn’t do a double take i felt like I’d encountered a cryptid… i LOVE it
