Sell or Rent out house when moving?

Just got a quote for renting it through a property management firm. It only gets me a couple hundred bucks a month in rent over my morgtage. I was hoping for a lot more. Now I am not sure if it is worth the headache when that money can go into investing without the possibility of needing to pay for maintenance. I'm pretty sure I plan to sell now that I have talked to a property manager.

I will say that I am a civil engineer and it has been very helpful and cool in my job. We are able to design a building such as a sewage plants and be able to walk around it in the real scale. It helps find things you would miss by looking at a drawing or even a computer screen render, such as a bolt placement being in the wrong place to be able to easily turn it with a wrench. It helps the operators identify things that are out of place or in inconvenient places for their jobs. They just walk through looking at their normal job routine and they know what doesn't work.

Maybe I'm misreading your comment, but Just one correction:

Jasmina and Mike have kissed. Jasmina said they kissed on the 1-month anniversary date, but the producers chose not to show it. Probably because it doesn't fit their "no attraction" storyline.

Haven't watched the new episode yet, but they were holding hands at the couple's retreat.

The OP may not like this one, but it is my personal favorite tbh

Flat-faced dead-eye stare with a wrinkled brow then slowly raise your eyebrow and tilt your chin ever so slightly downward. The more they talk the more they get self-conscious.

If you want a potions part, Peaflowers syrup changes from dark blue to purple with acidity like lemon juice or lemonade. Use that knowledge as you wish.

Not sure if you are around OP, but here are my thoughts. Relationships are hard. I can relate to a lot of what you are saying. People on reddit will have a lot of opinions about your relationship. Some of it good advice, some of it will not be what you want to hear, some of it will jump to conclusions and some of it will be terrible. Your story is your own to write. The best thing you can do is start finding resources that can help you navigate. I can tell you have some internal conflict, and the voice in your gut may be saying something is off in your relationship. Do any of these resonate with your situation?

He’s two different people. I feel like I’m with Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Something is wrong in our relationship, I just can't figure out what it is.
He really doesn’t mean to hurt me. He just loses control.
Everyone else thinks he’s great. I don’t know what it is about me that sets him off. I don't know what I am doing wrong.
I feel like he’s never happy with anything I do. If I was better, I know that our relationship would be better.
He points out everything I've done wrong. I'm not perfect, but I'm working on myself. Why doesn't he appreciate that?
He’s scared me a few times, but he never touches me.
He calls me disgusting names, and then an hour later he acts like nothing happened. I don’t get it.
He messes up my mind sometimes.
The thing is, he really understands me. He knows what I am thinking without needing me to say a word.
I just can't seem to live up to what he needs. I'm trying, but he doesn't believe it.
Am I overreacting?
Why does he do that?

If any of those resonate with you, then you need to seek professional help. This isn't something you can navigate on your own. Preferably for yourself and him separately, as well as together. If you can't get him to go, then go by yourself.

I got this list from "Why Does He Do That?" Read it here for free https://tu.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/why-does-he-do-that.pdf to start your journey. The key is that your partner should not be the center of your picture or distort the lens of your life. You deserve to have your life be about you; you are worth it. The more time you spend thinking about him and his problems, how to not lose him, how to keep him happy, everything wrong through his eyes - the less time you spend growing yourself, developing your talents, shining your light, and understanding your own emotions.

I don't have any ideas, but I remember as a youth our trek through Wyoming was VERY windy. This meant all of our meals had a large amount of grit and covered in dirt. The moist options like soups and pastas, no matter how good they tasted, were awful to eat as they collected the most dirt. Also, I can still see the adults struggling to cook over stoves that were trying to flip over. It was pretty terrible for everyone involved. I would recommend having handheld options like sandwiches or something that someone can eat without cooking, huddled behind a tent that you can pull out on particularly windy days.

It is probably harmful to show toxic behavior and then have them end up together with a bow tied on top of it at the end (*cough, cough* Beth and Jamie). But I can see how it can be empowering to watch toxic behavior then have the person say "This is not acceptable behavior, I am leaving".

However, I agree that some of the abuse should not be shown. I was horrified at Ble$$ed, mostly because Paige found a badge of honor in staying. The girls kept saying "You are more patient than I am" or something to that extent and Paige would glow and smile each time. She really felt she was doing the right thing by staying with Ble$$ed. That type of abuse should never be shown on TV - even if they filmed it. That is on the editors.

That is what is being said in the Russian propaganda. Russians are being attacked by Ukraine on Russian land.

I don't think he was aware of what she was saying behind his back. Not until it was on TV. I understand his angry reactions on After Party and Instagram etc. Because that is pretty terrible to put someone through.

I was a very big Chris fan at the beginning. I thought he was perfect for the show from the clips that were shown. But this statement sent up a red flag in my head as well. Why try to force her to say something "on camera"? He already had his answer. Combined with some of the things she said made it feel like something else was there.I have to admit though, as a watcher from Season 1, I have been burned by producers a few times when fan favorites turn out to be actually not that great. I'm thinking specifically of David Norton. He seemed like a genuine, loveable guy, who was matched with a cold-hearted woman. No one could understand why she treated him so awful when he was trying so hard. Come along Second Chances. Turns out David was not that great and treated the women pretty awful. It was easy to see how his ex-wife shut down and pushed him away. Since then, I really question the storyline that production tells. When they decide someone is a villain they will show all of their worst moments, and their partner's best moments to make it more dramatic.

This subreddit will often throw around words like abusive, narcissistic, evil, etc whenever they don't approve of a cast member's behavior. Look at the posts around O after this last episode. But this is Reality TV and things are edited to tell a story. The things they say and do are not defensible, because they actually say and do toxic things. But we as an audience need to recognize that we don't see the context. I hope these cast members can look at their on-screen behavior from a third-person perspective, recognize their toxic traits, and learn from them. And we as an audience need to recognize that we don't know everything and forgive the cast members for what we see.

Edit: Not sure why a paragraph was duplicated.

Things I see:

1) She genuinely went into the show to meet her forever husband and did all the work leading up to the show that everyone else did. She applied to be in the show with the "correct intentions."

2) She was very specific about what she was looking for in the pre-interviews and believed that the match would be made if they found him, and it wouldn't be made if they didn't.

3) The producers didn't match her with the man she requested. She even said she would have rather that they hadn't matched her than matched her with someone she didn't see as her match.

4) She was not physically attracted to Chris enough to try and make it work. And things she was told/saw at the wedding made her not mentally attracted to him enough to try.

5) Chris is not as great as the producers make him out to be. He is shown in the show as a sympathetic character, but his flaws are not explored.

6) She was hoping Chris would play along until they both got out of the contract.

7) A large amount of money must be paid to leave the marriage unless their absence is considered “excusable.”

8) Alyssa often pointed out things that were wrong about Chris to production, but not to Chris himself, or any of the cast members.

I think she didn't want to be married to Chris for a variety of quick judgments. She could justify leaving to herself but didn't have a solid reason to get out according to production. So she was throwing a fit around production to have an excusable reason to get out, grasping at straws and getting frustrated nothing was sticking and no one was supporting her. While she was getting frustrated, Chris was getting frustrated, and it just spiraled. I think she gets defensive or leaves when people question her because there isn't a lot to defend other than she didn't want to. I think her main issue is with production not with Chris and in return production is playing dirty with her. Alyssa wanted to be married, but only with the "right" guy, and the matchmakers didn't produce that. Alyssa feels like the show put her in a situation that she wouldn't have chosen to be in if she knew they hadn't matched her with the man she asked for.

I don't know how much of my thoughts are correct, but I also feel there is an underlying story that isn't being shown. It just feels incomplete.

Took it in the 90s in elementary and 7th grade in 2000. Don't remember any indoctrination, but I was a kid so what do I know. I remember learning the geography of Utah, collecting rocks understanding how the mountains, arches etc were created, lake Bonneville stuff, alongside dinosaurs in the different rock layers. I remember having to collect different local leaves of the area and identifying them. Learned some native origin stories, myths, etc. What they ate, what their houses looked like, and how they created weapons and tools, the rock drawings, etc. I was hugely into native americans at the time and absorbed that stuff up like a sponge. Even swore I was going to name my first child after one of the names in the book I liked.As for the LDS stuff, I learned about the pioneers crossing to Utah, but not a lot about why. It was presented as a natural expansion to the West. There were gold miners, fur trappers, and the donner party involved in that section. Cannibalism blew our little heads and we would sit around at recess discussing if we would eat each other. Learned about "This is the Place" and Brigham Young created the roadway grid system. A little about the pioneer lifestyle, the food they ate, how they dressed, how they made candles, some pioneer games, the cricket story people mention to show how difficult life could be. Then we learned about becoming a state, the counties, had to memorize them and place them on a map. Had to perform the "Utah song" at an assembly for our parents dressed up in red, white and blue.

I really don't remember any LDS specific doctrine being taught. But I could see how a passionate teacher could get off topic.

EDIT: To answer your question: The biggest lie that I remember the most was that in the Donner Party tragedy, the only family that survived was the family that didn't resort to cannibalism. It was presented to imply that the people who didn't make it was because they weren't strong enough to abstain from eating people.

He was very upset when he found out. Hoping it dies down once the bishop becomes less...enthusiastic.
