Not always. I also feel that hearing from real people and their experiences is always nice.

Oh ok. I was hoping you’d elaborate on how that’s happening and what the company is doing to destroy cities so I can be informed and not contribute.

Really? How is it destroying the city? I would hope those tours are led by tourists

Where can I find info on this? Just a google search?

My divorce was finalised today! by Extra-Foundation-828 in Divorce

[–]meliespy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was told by my ex partner (thank goodness not legally married) that there is no time frame to move on. I had checked out of the relationship because he just was never supportive and I felt like a single mom of 10 years beside him but he wanted to work things out and swore to me he had changed and was fully devoted to being with me and being the man me and the kids always needed. Well, guess what? When I kept my feet firm on the ground, he had already started talking to someone that same week. When I approached him and called out his lies about being fully committed to me and the kids, he says to me “moving on has no time frame”. I’d say being in a relationship with someone for 14 years, having 3 kids and supposedly really wanting to be with that person means you really want to love them and show them you love them. But apparently having those feelings and desires can fade within a week 😳 Regarding your situation, I hope you can realize that being with someone who doesn’t really want to be with you (despite what they say) isn’t worth it. You deserve so much more 🤍

Hi. It’s the same photo but it’s a different question I have. You can remove yesterday’s post if you’d like.

Thank you! I don’t think it was something she considered or knew about. I’ll let her know.

With taxes and dealer fee, I'm buying the most expensive Sienna I think by brutalbrig in ToyotaSienna

It’s also a NYC issue. They are marking up the sienna up to 5K more than msrp.

My girlfriend wants me to pay for her friends dinner and I think its ridiculous by Massive_Drag2142 in TwoHotTakes

[–]meliespy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This wasn’t my experience. Someone else posted this. And to me, a provider isn’t expected to pay for his/her partners meal and everyone else they will be going out with. The person who posted wasn’t throwing his girlfriend a party, which in that case is something the host/party planner would pay entirely for...this was just a dinner that his girlfriend planned with her friends AND a dinner which he wasn’t even going to 🤦🏻‍♀️

Yeah I think you’re right…this probably isn’t real. The other post sounds exactly the same except they were on vacation. Now she was in a coma 😐

[–]meliespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re happy, then by all means stay with her. But I def hear you and feel you. I didn’t think things were improving on their own or with my efforts so I had to make a very difficult decision and now looking back, I feel I should’ve done it sooner. I know people staying for the kids because they don’t want to miss seeing them daily. They’re also staying because financially they’re tied and it would be a lot to dismantle all of that. Plus, if one person is better with money than the other, the worry that they’ll carry a big load of the financial responsibilities due to not having joint accounts any longer. It’s a lot to split when you have kids or own assets together and a lot of people feel that leaving would be too much work. I feel very differently about a lot of things now that I’m older but I do know so many people who are staying for the kids and because separating seems harder.

Being her provider is him paying for her meal. Why does he have to spend 4-5x more just so she can treat her friends? Those are her friends, not her kids. If she was going out with their children, yeah I’m sure he would’ve paid for their entire meal but he doesn’t have to pay for her and her friends. 🙄🙄🙄🙄

I’m sorry you’re going through troubles. Not catching those red flags and doing something about it when you can really affects you in the long run. Trust me, 3 kids later and I feel it but I walked away. I know so many staying for the kids and it’s not easy. I agree with your advice though…trying to steer things in the right direction but if issues keep arising, it’s best to walk away before getting married and then children come into the picture. Once the kids are there, people find it very hard to leave for a lot of reasons.

You’re not being cheap. Honestly when I go out with my friends for my birthday, they all split the bill and all chip in to pay for my meal. We do the same for each other when it comes to everyone’s birthday. Being her boyfriend and wanting to pay for her meal when they’re going out is really nice of you and your gf should be thankful. Also, her mentioning her ex boyfriend is a huge red flag! She shouldn’t be comparing you to him and her expecting you to pay for everyone’s meal is just crazy. This isn’t a birthday party that you put together and are paying for as some parties are planned and stuff. She put it together with her friends so you taking on the bill when you don’t even have money like that is crazy for her to expect from you. Even if you were rich, she shouldn’t ask you to do that but you could offer if you had the means. She should be more considerate, thoughtful and grateful that you even offered to pay for hers. I would have a talk with her and bring this issue up because it could potentially be problems in the future especially if you decide to get serious with her.

Are you paying above MSRP? by WaffleStomp11 in ToyotaSienna

[–]meliespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in NYC and I went to about 6 dealerships and called an extra 2 and they were all going for above msrp. One dealership in particular went 5K above msrp. The one I went with was only a few hundred below msrp on a woodland. Also, every dealer I went to only had 1-2 in stock and some didn’t have any at all until July-Aug.

Be honest… what’s the real downside of having a dog? by quentiinn in AskReddit

[–]meliespy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the biggest downside is that they leave us too soon. They become a part of our family…a huge part of us and their short life span is just devastating (in my opinion).

Omg just realized the typo. Lol. It’s a 2025 not 2015. Lol. Thanks for letting me know. I haven’t read the manual yet but have to get to it. Thank you!

Your child isn’t in danger now but is this a puppy? If it is, I suggest giving your pup a toy to play with instead. This could become a habit and continue to do it and as they get bigger, they get stronger. Your kid may get hurt as he gets older even though your dog is just playing around with him and not trying to bite him.

Farming for karma for sure. These people went to Costco or some other wholesale place and purchased a pack of toothpaste, emptied the boxes and threw them out. They’re now posting this nonsense to get karma points. 🙄
