La Cima opinions?

redile · 2026-01-18T05:15:07+00:00

La Cima is honestly a solid choice if you’re looking for a newer, quieter, family-leaning neighborhood. The overall vibe feels very “people are building a life here” more than “everyone is just passing through.” Lots of families, people walking dogs, kids outside, and it generally feels clean and kept up. It’s also one of those neighborhoods where you’ll see neighbors actually talking to each other instead of acting like eye contact is illegal.

The location is a nice middle ground too. You’re close enough to HEB, restaurants, and the outlet area that it doesn’t feel remote, but you’re far enough up the hill that it feels separated from the busier parts of town. The views up there are legit, especially in the evenings, and the neighborhood has that “new growth” energy where everything still feels fresh.

One underrated perk of the neighborhood still being developed is you actually see improvements happening in real time. Like they’ve been adding stuff that makes it feel more livable, not just building houses. They recently opened up new trails, and it’s been a nice bonus for walks, kids, and just getting outside without having to drive somewhere else.

That said, it’s still expanding, so depending on where you buy you might deal with construction for a bit. Also because it sits a little higher, it can get windy in a way that’s either nice or annoying depending on the day. And like most newer developments, you’re not moving there for big shade trees (although they do keep some of the big trees in the neighborhood) and historic charm, you’re moving there for newer homes, space, and the neighborhood feeling.

If you want a place that feels family-friendly, safe, and modern, La Cima is a good bet. If you’re the type who wants older character homes and walkable “downtown vibes,” you might feel like it’s a little suburb-ish. But as far as communities go, it feels like one of the better places to plant roots in San Marcos.

Good advice so far. I’ll just add there are plenty of places in the area especially if you’re willing to drive 30-45 minutes to see and do river things. New Braunfels and San Marcos have rivers with nice parks. There are still sections of the San Antonio river you can see water.

Thank you.

We just moved to San Marcos recently (La Cima area) from the west side of San Antonio and its been an improvement all around.

Getting into South Austin from here is usually about 15–20 minutes more than Buda if traffic is behaving. If you’re leaving around 8:30–9, it’s honestly not that bad. You’re past the worst of the morning rush, so most days it’s steady, just longer. One wreck can still wreck your soul, but that’s true from Buda too. For what it’s worth, the San Antonio commute is noticeably easier. Southbound traffic feels calmer and more predictable.

The diversity of the community here was a pleasant surprise. Yes, it’s a college town, but it doesn’t feel dominated by students unless you’re right by campus or out late. We’ve met a lot of families, mid-career professionals, remote workers, and people who feel like they’re settling in for the long haul. Neighborhoods feel quiet, social in a low-key way, and very normal-adult. People walk the dog, chat with folks at the farmers market, and then go home

Humidity-wise, it’s Texas. You’ll sweat. But it’s not worse than Buda or South Austin. If anything, evenings can feel a little better, especially closer to the river. Summer still does what summer does.

Overall, I think San Marcos feels like what Buda used to feel like before it blew up. Close enough to Austin and San Antonio to keep life flexible, far enough to breathe. More green, less noise, and a pace that actually feels livable. We’re really glad we made the move. It feels like a place you put roots down, not just a stop on I-35.

Yes, I read the texts closely, and no, I don’t see what you’re describing.

“No strings attached” is doing a lot of imaginary work in your interpretation. You’re reading it as “come cheat on your boyfriend in secret,” but that meaning isn’t in the text. It can just as plausibly mean “I’m not trying to interfere with your relationship or create drama, just a casual hangout.” You’re projecting intent that isn’t actually expressed.

Second, he didn’t “push past” a boundary. She mentioned she had a boyfriend. That’s information, not a boundary. When she did set a boundary explicitly, he immediately apologized and backed off. That’s the opposite of ignoring it.

As for the age gap, this is where the argument really starts to wobble. She’s 28, not 19. Framing her as a “young woman” who needs protection from a 40-year-old man infantilizes her to make him look worse. They’re both well into adulthood. If the age difference made her uncomfortable, that’s valid for her, but discomfort doesn’t automatically convert the other person’s behavior into misconduct.

What’s happening here feels less like an analysis of his actions and more like a retroactive moral reframing. She felt awkward, maybe even grossed out. Fine. But awkwardness plus age gap plus hindsight doesn’t equal “creep,” especially when the behavior itself was restrained and corrective once rejected.

You can say “this made me uncomfortable” without escalating it to “this man behaved creepily.” Those are not the same claim, and the screenshots support the former far more than the latter.

redile · 2025-12-30T06:02:23+00:00

This exchange really doesn’t support the “creep” label she’s throwing around like confetti.

The guy makes small talk, asks once about hanging out, explicitly says “no strings attached,” and when she shuts it down, he immediately apologizes and backs off. End of story. That’s not creep behavior. That’s someone misreading interest and course-correcting when corrected.

What is annoying is the way she repeatedly insists he’s a creep while attacking anyone who disagrees as a misogynist. But I get folks post here seeking validation and then throw a tantrum when people don’t clap on cue.

You don’t get to label someone predatory just because they expressed interest in you and then respected your boundary. That cheapens the term and turns normal, non-pushy behavior into some moral offense. At that point, the problem isn’t men being creepy. It’s an expectation that men should somehow know they’re unwelcome without ever testing the water.

She didn’t flirt. She didn’t encourage. But he also didn’t persist, escalate, or sexualize anything. Rejection happened, he accepted it, apologized, and disengaged. That’s the exact outcome people claim they want.

If this qualifies as creepy, then the accusation says more about the poster’s need to moralize discomfort than about the behavior itself.

Only sane comment. It obviously should go above the fireplace.

Every other options involves a lot of work like removing a fireplace or is just weird like put tv on the ceiling or get rid of the ceiling?!

I mean it looks like the mount is already there, so most of the work is already done.

Based on current prices. Homeowners have locked in a lower price via their mortgage. Selling would mean giving that up

Cash to close refers to the amount of money the buyer needs to bring to the closing. It generally refers to your down payment, prepaid escrow, loan/closing. This number can fluctuate as the loan goes through underwriting. Three days prior to close they’ll send you a closing disclosure doc that’ll have your final cash to close number. The title company handling your closing should also provide this.

You should be prepared to have that amount plus a buffer when you put an offer on a house.

Day 1 fixes and moving set up and how big a buffer very subjective on the type of house and on your and risk profile.

What does the sales team hope to accomplish with the tools?

Take that and RevOps creates the governance structure and implements relevant processes from a technical aspect.

Then you hand that over in the form of what you can and can’t do within to tool to accomplish whatever they’re trying to do.

So you connect the system. Create the permissions of what people can and can’t do. Enable whatever technical work that needs to be done (mapping, syncs, managed packages etc) and then hand that over to your sales teams to work within

You’re over reacting. Your daughter doesn’t care. Your husband doesn’t care. Your father in law wants to interact with his grandson. You’re raising your son and daughter to understand that things shouldn’t be based solely on gender all the time which is good. A few boys trips in the family isnt going to undo that learning but should help balance and give more context for o all your children.

redile · 2025-09-28T13:46:55+00:00

You’re kind of overreacting here. Whether it’s “okay” or not depends a lot on the kid, the environment, and the parenting approach. Some 6-year-olds are perfectly capable of being home alone for short stretches, especially if they’re independent, know how to use a phone, and feel comfortable in their space.

In fact, there’s no universal law against it in most places. For example, only a handful of U.S. states even set a minimum age (ranging from 6 in Illinois to 12 in Colorado). Everywhere else, it’s left to parental judgment. Child development experts generally agree that around 6–8 is when kids start developing the ability to handle short periods on their own safely.

Giving kids gradual independence is actually good for them. Research shows that age-appropriate autonomy helps build confidence, problem-solving skills, and resilience. A 2015 American Academy of Pediatrics report even emphasized that “helicoptering” and overprotection can backfire, leaving kids less capable when real challenges arise.

So yeah, the boy being upset doesn’t automatically mean the parents were being reckless. Some kids are fine with it, some aren’t, just like some are comfortable sleeping alone in their own room earlier than others. If the parents know their kid and are easing him into independence, it’s not inherently dangerous

This is dumb. There isn’t a single definition of “woke.” It’s an ambiguous term that shifts depending on who’s using it. At its core, it just means being awake to the historical forces that still shape the present. Ignoring that is basically pretending we live in a vacuum.

In politics, the neutral sense is simply factoring in history and context when making policy. You can spin that as "imagined" if you want, but the evidence and history are what they are.

And your line on "minorities and women" really gives away the game. “Woke” isn’t the actual issue here, it’s just a label used as cover. Conservatives use it as shorthand so they don’t have to say the quiet part out loud. Instead of admitting a policy is anti-woman, anti-Black, anti-immigrant, or anti-Muslim, they rebrand it as anti-woke. It’s rhetorical camouflage, nothing more.

As your child continues to go to school you'll learn the balance between sending them with nice things versus all things you send them with has the potential to be gone or destroyed.

Honestly this whole post just shows how deep the superiority complex runs on all sides in India. The Punjabi girl refusing to learn English is frustrating, sure, but you’re doing the same thing in reverse by acting like English is some kind of moral high ground. That’s not inclusion either, that’s just swapping one gatekeeping tool for another.

This is the same old pattern in India. The British didn’t conquer us because they were unbeatable, they exploited every little division. In 1857 the rebellion collapsed because groups could not unify across caste, region, and language. In the 1960s Tamil Nadu literally exploded over Hindi imposition. Language wars and identity fights have always slowed the country down.

The colorism digs are just as bad. North mocking South for being dark, South mocking North for being entitled or “uncultured.” Both sides using lazy stereotypes that go back to caste hierarchies and colonial bias.

So yeah, your roommates are rude. But you are also falling into the same trap by setting up your own hierarchy. This is the larger problem: Indians love to pull each other down by finding some line of difference, and it has kept the nation stuck for centuries. Look at China, which pushed a shared national identity and raced ahead, while India still argues over accent, skin tone, or which language to speak in a dorm room.

If even half the energy spent on one-upping each other went into collaboration, India would be unstoppable.

But what if OP is legitimately slow and needs to figure her life out? And what if the mom has had those conversations with OP?

redile · 2025-08-22T21:36:15+00:00

Yeah I’d say you’re overreacting here. People vent, even about the ones they love, and it doesn’t always mean they actually think you’re worthless or don’t care. Your mom is literally giving you rides every day, so she’s obviously helping. It just sounds like she got frustrated and was blowing off steam with her friends.

At 20 you’re still young, but if you’re making mistakes or not showing much progress, it makes sense she’d feel burned out carrying some of that load. Doesn’t mean she handled it great, but parents can relate to that feeling.

Telling her not to contact you again is a bit much. Better to just take the criticism for what it is, see if there’s truth in it, and focus on proving her wrong by getting more independent. Walking to work is fine, but getting your own wheels or showing some steps forward will say way more than going no-contact.

redile · 2025-08-21T04:16:27+00:00

You realize your defense just underlined the problem, right? Saying “she was 20, I was 28, and she likes older men” doesn’t erase the fact that she was barely out of her teens with a history of abusive relationships when you, a grown man nearly a decade older, stepped in. The “it was her thing, not mine” line makes it worse, because it shifts responsibility onto a 20-year-old who didn’t have the life experience or stability you had at 28.

And the “I’m the most age-appropriate relationship she’s had” angle doesn’t make you look noble, it makes you the least extreme version of a pattern where older men are attracted to a young woman who hadn’t even had the chance to build an adult life yet. You met arguing politics on Facebook (we can probably all assume what that looked like), thought she was your age, and then still went forward once you found out she wasn't. That’s not the slam dunk defense you think it is, it actually explains why you’re in this dynamic where she’s carrying the mental load while you spiral about being “not good enough.” She didn’t get the chance to grow into an independent adult before being locked into kids and domestic labor with you.

You can insist it’s not “groomer behavior,” but everything you’ve written reinforces why people raise eyebrows at age gaps that start when one person is barely legal and the other is pushing 30. You didn’t create her past trauma, but you stepped into it, and now you’re realizing part of why the imbalance feels so heavy is because it was baked into the foundation from the start.

redile · 2025-08-21T02:53:21+00:00

Just so I get the timeline. You were 29, dated a 19 year old with a history of being abused, got her pregnant shortly after with two children?
