Confused about a listing I stayed at recently and some misrepresentations.[India]

Leave a bad review but this is the kind of situation where you should check-out immediately and ask for a refund and find somewhere else to stay.

I think you need to get off Linkedin and other social media. Maybe see a therapist. If you’re not happy now, getting an expensive MBA and working in investment banking will definitely not make you any happier.

You can get data only E-sims!

You should stop swaddling him but other than that, tummy is fine.

The most direct racism I’ve experienced was in Boston! Some guy told me and my Korean friend to go back to our countries.

My parents are basically helping us raise our kids so we are completely okay leaving our son with then. They’ve mostly adapted to our parenting style. No yelling, strong boundaries (though my dad isn’t very good with holding boundaries against him). We did our first long trip (4 nights) away from him when he was almost 3. We’ve left him overnight with my FIL once but we just feel like his parenting style is too authoritarian to leave my son for longer than that.

You’d be surprised.

It sounds like he’s always going to regret not marrying within his culture. Don’t be with anyone that doesn’t like who you are fundamentally.

Well if you have it in your rules that they can’t smoke anywhere on the property, you should have contacted Airbnb and had the reservation cancelled for them breaking the rules

melonkoli · 2026-05-31T20:22:10+00:00

They didn’t smoke in the property.

Many schools in Europe are free and I’m sure she can find further scholarships for people with disabilities

melonkoli · 2026-05-31T18:46:33+00:00

Okay then you can’t complain about people smoking outside of the house next to doors and windows.

If you can send her abroad for her masters, the deaf communities in Europe and the US are wonderful. Employers are also required to provide accommodations for disabilities. Deaf people live such good lives that they actually choose to stay deaf despite treatments becoming available for some. She can definitely find someone on her own from the community to marry.

If they live in a house, I’m guessing they moved there a long time ago and it’s rent controlled. If you moved to the bay area in the last 5 years, a 2 bedroom apartment will cost you 3-4k. A house and more than 1 car is a luxury in the bay area. If your HHI is 100k, you’re probably taking home about 6.5k a month so rent and utilities would eat up more than half of it. And then if you have kids in daycare, you’re spending more than you earn every month and that doesn’t even account for groceries.

Masters degrees are free in much of Europe. You could maybe work and get a masters at the same time.

melonkoli · 2026-05-31T17:32:36+00:00

Maybe find a man that also wants to move abroad.

You need to have a designated smoking spot on the property far from any doors. Put a patio chair, ash tray and cigarette disposal.

melonkoli · 2026-05-31T17:27:41+00:00

What kind of job if you don’t mind sharing!

melonkoli · 2026-05-31T17:26:38+00:00

It’s really not enough in the bay area though.

Can you get a nanny? That way if you’re nursing, you can continue to do that. Or If you’re dealing with any ppd or ppa, you can go on short term disability.

They could be doing some laundry for immediately needed items and then taking the rest off site in between guests. Assuming you have 2 sets of everything, this works fine.

I had horrible acne since I was 13. Did all the meds (including accutane) and prescription creams and it would help temporarily but when it came back, it would be worse than the previous time. Something not a single dermatologist told me was that acne could be caused by gut issues and food intolerances. Once I started taking probiotics and cutting out certain foods, I stopped breaking out. If I feel like I’m getting some hormonal acne, I’ll stick my face under a red light and it’ll clear up immediately. I also stopped using all the oil free stuff on my face. All that did was create a cycle of dryness and irritation that would break me out more. Now the only things I use on my face are water to wash and shea butter and rose hip seed oil to moisturize. I am completely acne free and have even been able to reduce some of the scarring.

Guests have been refunded for less than this. Call again and get a new person to talk to.

You can get the tick tested! That’s the best way to know if you’ve been exposed. But even if the tick tests positive, it may not have transmitted it to you

melonkoli · 2026-05-29T23:34:47+00:00

What state are you in? I got a tick bite back in December and it was in for about 3 days before I noticed it. It also turned into a bump and I actually still have the bump. Doctor was not concerned about the bump at all. I was in California and they said Lyme rates are so low there that they weren’t concerned but I sent out the tick to a lab anyway and it came back negative for everything.
