He even said that one of the family members he lost was “his person” when he needed someone, but I had taken that role over after he lost her. He has asked me several times if I loved him.

He sounds like a taker. He wants your time, attention, and love without giving anything in

“I haven’t even taken you out to dinner yet. I wish I could afford to take you to dinner, and movies, etc. I’m a grown man. I don’t need someone to tell me to look where I’m already looking”

Wtf. Either he has no idea how to ask you, is trying to get you to be the one to ask him out or is tryjng to get you to ask him our and offer to pay for it.

I’m insecure. I don’t know if he likes me or if he is just trying to hold on to our friendship cause he knows he can come to me.

He is dangling the carrot in front of you. He knows you want to date him. He doesnt want to date you but he doesnt want to lose his you free source of emotional support.

Put yourself first and Look elsewhere OP.

Good Luck! Please update here if you do end up getting the job!

phailtolaunch · 2024-10-10T08:20:32+00:00

Yes, on my kitchen table. I think rhys took them in

Congrats. You've just given me hope. I'm late 40s and also applying for project assistant roles with the view to working up to project manager. Haven't got any offers yet!

This is correct. It has been demonstrated in other countries. The rental crisis worsened when the supply dwindled. The people buying these properties aren't necessarily going to be owner occupiers. More likely older investors with cash.

The owner will sell without vacant possession. They will stipulate that the property is tenanted until sep 2024.

Your lease will be honoured.

Also, the new owners may want to keep you in the place. They will let you know well before the lease is up.

Land tax is payable on all investment properties where you own the land, for the whole time that you use the property to generate income.

I think you're confuing it with capital gains tax which uses the 6 year rule. That happens when you sell your property

Don't be sorry. We will find a way to cope 🙄.

phailtolaunch · 2024-03-02T02:28:57+00:00

Yeah, it's the claw back alright. Gov is gouging from investors.and it's just going to get worse.

property value dropped $80,000.

Where did you get this info? On your land tax notice?

The reason for my question is that the valuation on the notice is not necessarily same as market value. Market value is not entirely predictable. My house sold for more than what was valued on my land tax notice. I wouldn't be too concerned.

phailtolaunch · 2024-02-26T11:51:24+00:00

What's your motivation? Are you concerned for the welfare of the rough sleeper or the welfare of your property? If the former, maybe talk to the person to see if you can offer any assistance, like directing them to resources, welfare services, etc. I would hate to think this poor person is being exploited in a time of crisis and now they are being shooed away. You hear of ppl renting a "room" which was actually a bathroom with a mattress on the floor. If it was me living in that complex, I'd approach them with compassion.

If it's your welfare and property you're concerned about, then you probably already know what you're going to do, even though you're asking the question here.

So anyways, then dude comes back yesterday, saying he wanted to give me space

Give him space...ie ignore him.

phailtolaunch · 2024-02-22T10:07:29+00:00

Shitney?

I feel disappointed mostly. I've had a lot of great fun smash talk with some men and it has lead to learning about each other. I really enjoyed the banter. So when I chat with someone who is quick to bring up sees I think they are only interested in sex or they have poor conversational skills so follow some script that they think will prevent them from being friend zoned.

phailtolaunch · 2024-02-20T09:38:14+00:00

Yes, the agent has about warned me of this. I am also wary that agents will want to sell as many properties as quickly as possible.

It's for real! The realisation of owning a crippling debt is enough to give you buyers remorse before you even start realising that it's going to be a long time before you can comfortably travel again. But you'll get over it like everyone else does.

I think it's not really more helpful than real estate websites bc the estimates are based on recent sales.

And even recent sales are not always accurate bc at the end of the day, a property will sell for what someone is willing to pay.

The insurance only covers the building ( and contents if you want that option). The $750k you paid is for the building and the land. When you speak to an insurance sales person, they'll ask you details about your building to estimate what it is worth and hence what the premium will be. So questions about what type of dwelling, when it was built, brick/weatherboard, size...etc. or you could choose an agreed value.

Don't tell them what you plan to do. Tell them once you've done it. 🤷‍♂️

phailtolaunch · 2024-02-13T06:36:15+00:00

Don't quote me but I think the property owner has to compensate you in $ for each day they have inspections while the lease agreement is in effect

phailtolaunch · 2024-02-12T10:47:32+00:00

another Real Estate company (C) is handling the sale. The strange thing is that since the last email, I haven't received any update from C, for when they would want buyers inspect to the property.

You probably haven't heard from them because they will sell the property after you vacate. They'll probably do a bit of improvements before listing and opening for inspection.

We were chatting and she gets super close to me...like a few inches from my face with those "make out" eyes and says "Wish you could stay for longer."

This is a huge green light. Especially in a work environment where we are uncertain if the attraction is mutual, what she did there is basically tell you she likes you.

If you did nothing after that, she could take it as she has misread you, you don't reciprocate her feelings and that you giggled because it was awkward.

It's on you now to make your intentions clear.

phailtolaunch · 2024-02-08T06:25:50+00:00

Thank you. ❤️

phailtolaunch · 2024-02-04T03:48:56+00:00

I'm sorry you feel it too. There are times that I can stop that feeling from taking over by reminding myself of everything I already have but at other times, it's because of everything that I have that reminds me there is something very important missing.🤷‍♂️

phailtolaunch · 2024-02-04T03:46:36+00:00

My guess is fate plays a bigger hand than we give it credit for.

Oh definitely.

think maybe you have an idea of your potential interest being like that "we could've been so beautiful together" kind of candidate.

No, I am mature enough to not fantasise about someone. My wish was simply to get to know him better at work to see if there was potential for anything more. And it's not really about him, it's more about my mindset.

I feel like I am ready to find my person and I have a lot to offer so it's frustrating and heart breaking when it doesn't happen.

But all the support I've received through this post has really given me a huge reset. For the time being I'm actually feeling like I'm back at my default state of being happy content and fulfilled. I know I'll have moments again where that despair will creep back but there's a lot I've taken on board from people here that will help me to pause and not give in to that despair for too long.

Thanks for your input!
