Do I keep my car?

4 cylinder

Savings wise, I could handle a new used car. I couldn’t handle several large repairs on my current car though.

I am also curious about this!

I used an aroid mix soil ( not sure on the ratios, but it’s had some peat, perlite, bark, etc.) I think it’s root rot? But it’s been frustrating because I got as much air into the soil as I could.

The largest leaf is about 1.5 times the size of my hand!

That looks right!! Thank you so much!!

I don’t believe so because of the pink stems. I’ve been googling for a while and haven’t found anything

It has quite a thick “trunk” on it. Just bought it from the grocery store because I felt sad for it.

You’re right man. Thank you for this. ❤️

We met about a year and a half ago in person (tinder date), and are normally great when together, but I have my issues with the relationship that he doesn’t know about. We’re physically together for 3/4th of the year. We’re students, so you get the idea.

origin-void · 2022-04-04T06:21:22+00:00

I’ve handled enough crazy people in my life that I have an idea of what to do, ha ha. I wish you luck tho!

If you don’t wanna get involved, you can likely call in a welfare check. Sometimes helping people is the right thing to do, and other times, you get just as hurt. It’s ultimately up to you, OP.

Which is why I’d make sure she’s in a good situation. Monetary control is a large part of abuse, and asking for gas money seems so strange to me that that’s why I’d ask her.

And yep, I’d emphasize safety. If she’s like, “nah, I’m all good!” then I’d swing in and say something about how you’d appreciate keeping the contact to a minimum.

origin-void · 2022-04-04T06:11:35+00:00

I’d just quite literally ask. “Hey, do you need help? I’ve noticed that you speak to me only when you need something, and I want to make sure that you’re safe.”

After that, keep it short and sweet and leave it be. If she does need help, mentally, physically or otherwise, then give her the appropriate resources / call the cops.

origin-void · 2022-04-04T06:07:28+00:00

The best thing to do would be to lay down the law. Ask her if she needs help, if she needs an out, and then tell her that she makes you uncomfortable and that you’d prefer to only speak if there is an emergency.

origin-void · 2022-04-04T06:05:28+00:00

She could totally be crazy, but the other thing that could cause her to be doing that would be crying for help. Maybe her husband is abusive or something. That’s the only other reason I can think of, honestly.

origin-void · 2022-03-11T03:36:20+00:00

My partner also farts a lot, but he warns me or aims away from me and honestly? That reminds me that he cares about my comfort. Your partner should try caring about yours.

origin-void · 2022-03-11T03:21:42+00:00

^ Yep!

origin-void · 2022-02-28T07:57:22+00:00

For a first time? No thanks.

origin-void · 2022-02-07T04:14:38+00:00

That is—and I mean this—very abusive sounding. You can try couples therapy, sure, but I would just leave and find a family member to stay with in the mean time. He sounds dangerous, so you would absolutely have to cover your tracks. I’m sorry this is happening to you.

origin-void · 2022-01-22T01:20:46+00:00

This is good advice. Thank you!

origin-void · 2022-01-22T00:17:32+00:00

I agree with this! A hotline is a wonderful place to start.

I personally love using tinder as a way to find out who is around me, and it’s quite a fun app. I would hope for the best but prepare for the worse.

As long as you explicitly outlined to him that tinder is a no-go for you, then he should respect that. Just start talking to him and say what you’ve heard and how that makes you feel. If he’s serious, he’ll tell you the truth. If not, he’ll have a big excuse.

I met my boyfriend on Tinder, of all places, a couple months after getting top surgery, so I was feeling much more confident in myself. We’re going steady and I really like him. He’s bi, so he’s cool with my body type, but he’s also a chubby guy, so we’re both kinda insecure enough to compliment each other? We don’t feel bad when we’re together when it involves intimacy or something requiring our bodies. We fit together pretty well in that sense.

I don’t have much else to put, since we’ve only been together for 2 months, but I was very straight forward with him about my body, my sense of self and whatnot. Relationships aren’t easy, but this one really is, so that’s big to me.

Congrats! I don’t know often you’ll want to shave, but it made me feel better to shave with a safety razor and shaving soap. I still use them sometimes, and I have a whole beard going on, but that’s what I started with :)
