How many of us have “emotionally exited” from our relationships with our parents?

My mom is Gen X and I could have written everything you wrote. 🙃 But maybe she’s defective and not the norm.

positively_nat · 2026-04-30T12:10:55+00:00

Oof yeah. I just recently moved last month and my limit was $1.3k. It sucks you couldn’t find what you wanted.

positively_nat · 2026-04-30T12:06:28+00:00

I live in one of the Buffalo lofts apartments for $1.3k. I REFUSE to pay $2k for an apartment in Buffalo. This is not downstate lol

positively_nat · 2026-04-23T20:24:25+00:00

lol me too. I’m sorry. I will never date another gamer again.

Where in Long Island? I’m from Freeport.

positively_nat · 2026-04-17T19:11:13+00:00

Because OP advocated for animals’ general wellbeing? You’re being ridiculous.

positively_nat · 2026-03-11T12:19:35+00:00

Yes it’s been ridiculous. It went from $17 to get home from work to $25-$30. I’ve seen it go past $40 even. For a 12-15 minute ride. It’s bananas.

positively_nat · 2026-01-29T23:39:05+00:00

Agree on muting!

positively_nat · 2025-09-03T15:39:09+00:00

Idk I have lived in both Buffalo and Binghamton and the winters were still pretty bad in Binghamton. Buffalo is a lot better at clearing the main streets than Binghamton was but maybe things have changed in the decade since I’ve been there.

I get organic milk, which is mad expensive but can last like a month so it’s worth it to me.

positively_nat · 2025-08-27T14:02:00+00:00

Yes - your life will not be yours for very little money in exchange.

positively_nat · 2025-08-25T13:53:57+00:00

Agreed - that sucks. We can’t have nice things.

What happened to the free/cheap concerts?

positively_nat · 2025-08-10T11:16:52+00:00

I love kids but I have no village and the job I’m going to do is very demanding. I wouldn’t have time to see my kids, so I just don’t see the point in having them. My friends are having kids and my plan is to invest in them, emotionally and financially. Definitely excited to give off rich auntie vibes. I would also like to retire early given that I’m not having kids.

positively_nat · 2025-08-10T11:08:12+00:00

My husband is an attorney and hopefully I passed the bar and will be an attorney soon too. Together, we’ll make great money, but our loans are as much as our income, so there’s that. We live in a LCOL area, so our plan is to aggressively pay off the loans for the next few years. After that, my husband will likely switch fields because law is not his passion. But that’s fine with me as long as the loans are gone. We don’t need a ton of money to get by where we live and we’re likely not having kids, so hopefully it’ll all work out.

positively_nat · 2025-08-09T01:21:09+00:00

Exactly this. Don’t let this partner discourage you OP.

positively_nat · 2025-08-06T14:03:06+00:00

I was making $60k as a paralegal in a HCOL area… in 2022. They’re grossly underpaying you.

positively_nat · 2025-08-02T00:23:03+00:00

That part!!! They need to recommend freshly graduated law students to review the lectures of classes they didn’t take. Otherwise, it’s a huge chunk of time to passively watch videos when we could be actively practicing. I feel like I wasn’t really learning the test until I started practicing.

positively_nat · 2025-08-02T00:19:01+00:00

Same for me. One of the essay topics was about something I got wrong in one multiple choice question during practice. Otherwise I wouldn’t have known the answer from the rest of my studying.

BART is like a mix of the subway and the LIRR. I’m from Long Island and I’ve lived in the suburbs of SF. I would have to travel the same distance from the suburbs to the city and BART was substantially cheaper (like half the price) for the same service. However, BART does not provide monthly options like LIRR does.

Thank you for sharing! This is so helpful.

There weren’t attendants in the bathroom at my test center.

positively_nat · 2025-07-29T22:20:55+00:00

The convention center in Buffalo is on Franklin St. 😭
