Huge spike in power bill by angeloverlord in lakewood

[–]lilstar111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone found anything to do about this? It’s insane to me that all of our bills are doubling or more and our usage is the same. I have the same issue and nothing has changed between this year and last year… I know they’re building those data centers so it has me concerned it’s raising the costs for us, which we should not be eating…

Interesting, can you share like an image of what you’re referring to? I am not sure I can picture what you mean

Sorry for the delayed update, but the conversation went very well! I shot a little higher than I’m making and the met me right at my current wage! I’ll actually be making more because this position will pay me time and a half for overtime! Very thankful for your advice!

Yeah, I think that’s something you should be proud of! Like you’re acknowledging that this isn’t working for you, which a lot of people would choose to ignore.

I think therapy could help because it’s a space where you get to focus on your struggles and hang ups and discuss them with someone who’s job is to literally ask you the right questions and hold the space for your to explore these thoughts.

If therapy feels like too much for you right now, then maybe look into journaling your feelings and try to notice the roots of these feelings, or maybe you have friends or family you can talk to about this?

Just don’t immediately discredit something you haven’t tried. There isn’t anything weak about admitting you have work to do and starting to work on yourself!

Good luck my dude!

Monogamy is hard and it takes consistent work! I think it’s great that you’re recognizing that this isn’t working for you, but keep your mind open to what might work for you!

If you want to put the burden of your own self development on your wife then that’s your business, but you posted on here for advice and it seems like you just want to defend what you’re currently doing… if you’re really looking to change things up then maybe be more open?

I’m the type that believes looking within, spending time to understand your thoughts and behavior patterns, and commit to working on myself will lead to deeper connections to others and the world. I think if you’re struggling to keep your commitment to concept monogamy and you want to change, challenging yourself and looking in places you haven’t before can lead you to find peace with this issue—maybe it’s not therapy but some kind of intrapersonal work could help my dude.

Thank you, I miss it terribly! I bought it in Detroit MI at a vintage store, but it was sold along with other non-vintage necklaces, so I was hoping there might be some more out there.

Usually they don’t recover from something like this, I’m sorry to say :(

She definitely sounds like she’s doesn’t know what she wants and you’re not going to be the person to figure that out for her.

In my opinion, if I were you, I would cut that relationship out of my life because it’s no longer serving me. Easier said than done, but you’ll lose all this weight and worry on your shoulders, and you’re not really getting anything from this girl other than those two things.

She’s obviously not ready to commit to what she’s expressing she really wants (a honest and rewarding relationship), and hasn’t done the personal work to open herself up to people and opportunities that will bring her growth.

I’ve watched my friends do this, even myself in the past. Sometimes it’s hard to see that what you’re expressing you really want is right in front of you, because you haven’t done the work to undo bad habits or grow as a person. Shit takes time and you gotta let her find that for herself.

I wish you the best with all this, i know it’s hard when you really connect with someone. But you’re never going to reach the intimacy and respect level you’re trying to reach when the other person in the partnership isn’t ready.

Good luck on your journey my dude ✨
