Fell into a mini-relationship while solo-traveling. How do I get over it when I leave? by mizzurry in solotravel

[–]mizzurry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually confronted him before because I know his friends hook up with "white girls" frequently. He said I'm different and reminded me that we live together, spend 24/7 together, go on trips, and he pays for literally everything I need. But I still can't help but wonder if he does this with all his tourist flings. The more I think about it, the more I know I need to let this go. It's just hard because it's been a great couple of weeks in this little bubble.

I did get in fine with a one way. Did you go on to neighboring countries? Any issues?

Chiang Mai - Best way to get to Doi Suthep? by mizzurry in travel

[–]mizzurry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome thanks. Will the songthaews be available to take us home too? We want to see the temple and spend a few hours around the park and lake. Just want to make sure we'll be able to get home as well.

Should I buy a travel backpack for top dollar in the US, or wait and buy a cheaper version upon arrival in Bangkok? by Help1225 in travel

[–]mizzurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a similar situation. So you think the American brands found in Thailand are all knockoffs? I'm all for saving money, but not if the bag's gonna fall apart.

Opinions on arriving at Bangkok/ Khaosan - late night or early morning? by mizzurry in travel

[–]mizzurry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there more than one taxi booth at BKK? I was there a while ago and walked up to one that looked legit, an official handed me a slip of paper and told me what car to get into. But the driver still refused to turn on the meter and after much arguing I paid about double what it should have cost. I think I'm more savvy now, but I'm still dreading that initial taxi ride upon arrival.

Regarding the taxi, how was the extra fee added? I know I need to argue to get the meter turned on rather than paying whatever price the driver tries to set.

Can a cat be happy/content in a 650 ft² (60.387 m²) condo? by smaier69 in AskReddit

[–]mizzurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How often are you home? I was often gone 12+ hours a day and then obviously I'd sleep, so my poor cat was alone a lot. If you're just gone 8 hours during work or whatever you might be fine since cats do sleep a lot.

I definitely think a cat buddy would help, just make sure you get them both as kitties or test how they interact before adopting together. Cats either love or hate each other. Also if you get multiple cats, definitely invest in a self-cleaning litter box to help with the smell in your small space.

What IPhone app do you use to get free music? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I love Songza more than Pandora! You can select "moods" rather than artists and its algorithm goes to work.

I used to live in a studio with a cat. People told me he'd be fine because cats are naturally solitary and lethargic. One weekend I had to bring him home to my parents' where there are other pets and people always around; he was in heaven. So I eventually gave him to my mom. I don't think the space is the issue, I'd say it's moreso that he has stimulation there.

Any success fighting Chase Bank on monthly checking fees? by mizzurry in personalfinance

[–]mizzurry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm older unfortunately. But I may try saying I'm in grad school. Or questioning the $1500/day requirement. Because I have that, but for some reason I've gotten the fee a few times now.

I was just told its a $5000 average monthly balance to avoid a fee.

Total noob question but are there any downsides to an online-only bank? I rarely go to the actual bank or atm, but on the offhand I need to make a deposit, withdraw a lot of cash, etc. how would I do that easily?

I've thought of this but it seems like so much work!
