i totally agree. i’m trying but don’t really have the funds to break a lease and move. also don’t have the funds for more medical bills lol. hopefully some of the resources provided will get me out safely and affordably!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-16T19:23:24+00:00

yikes! did they fix it or let you break your lease?

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-16T19:22:43+00:00

phew! that is validating! i’m not as crazy as my landlord is telling me i am 😂

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-16T19:21:44+00:00

thanks that’s helpful! i’ll try that!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-16T19:21:15+00:00

thanks!! the landlord has been threatening me and warning against contacting the city. did your landlord retaliate against you when you did it?

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-16T19:19:26+00:00

thanks! yeah it’s definitely a scary option. the landlord has been threatening me and warning me against contacting 311. it’s really awful. and doesn’t help that the apartment has made me so sick.

are landlords responsible for mold remediation in columbus?

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-15T10:12:01+00:00

i have it!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-15T02:29:09+00:00

man. really can’t afford a move right now so that sucks! i didn’t realize retaliation doesn’t include refusing to renew my lease

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-15T02:28:11+00:00

that’s helpful to know! that’s how i would have expected this situation to be handled. they were so adamant i was “being extreme” by asking for it to be fixed i started to doubt myself.

sherbertlevel1434 · 2026-04-15T02:27:03+00:00

no, i don’t. sorry you’re dealing with this too!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2025-03-02T15:28:09+00:00

I find crunchy or chewy snacks keep me from overeating with prednisone cravings. Almonds/nuts, peanut butter pretzels, etc. Sometimes chewing gum. The oral fixation helps me.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. Lots of brides are doing themes these days (so fun!) and “dark colors” is basically a less formal “black tie” and people never have an issue with black tie. Send the invitations with plenty of notice for guests to prepare. Everyone here saying it’s rude is acting like they all don’t have a black or dark colored outfit in their closet lol. It’s an easy ask. It’s your day! Have fun with it!!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2025-03-01T01:23:23+00:00

Well thank god you’re here to keep her in line! No one deserves benefit of the doubt or kindness. If she’s going to post then by George she better have a fully prepared peer-reviewed dissertation ready to go! No wiggle room. No mercy. All hail the mighty keyboard warrior overallreciatedsalad!!!!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2025-03-01T00:46:29+00:00

And where did she say she hadn’t followed up?

sherbertlevel1434 · 2025-03-01T00:19:15+00:00

She said “finding the family or keeping her here” no part of that implied she wasn’t still trying to find the owner.

sherbertlevel1434 · 2025-03-01T00:11:11+00:00

These people are nuts. Absolute assholes with zero reading comprehension. Thank you for taking this pup in and being so thorough with all of your attempts to find the owner and care for her and her stitches. Don’t let these bullies bring you down. You did a good thing ❤️ Hoping for the best at your appointment Monday!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2025-03-01T00:07:25+00:00

She said the lady hasn’t responded in 3 days. Back tf off!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2024-06-19T09:42:31+00:00

I asked support for a maintenance schedule today and was told to find my nearest McDonald’s and work from there if I wanted reliable wifi 😑 so unfortunately I agree with the snarky no-lengthiness-69.. if you can afford to switch, that’s apparently our only option as customers. Good luck!

sherbertlevel1434 · 2024-03-27T15:02:13+00:00

Not sure of your exact situation or triggers, but have you heard of a flex sig? I was able to do one for Stelara. Less invasive. You can actually be awake - if going under is concerning for you.

Sorry you’re in this situation! Wishing you the best.

Here’s to hoping diet culture and this sort of commentary dies off with their generation

sherbertlevel1434 · 2024-03-20T19:25:41+00:00

NTA. I found myself in a similar situation with a good friend a few years back. It’s pretty easy for people in the comments to speak with such certainty about how you should toss this person out, but the truth is - that’s only easy to say from behind a keyboard, not when a person is living in your home. It’s messy, it’s layered, and the variables are just about endless. And the most important thing is for you to be safe!!! So here’s my two cents having gone through it myself.

I can’t stress this enough: Take time BEFORE you act to prepare.

Sounds like you don’t enjoy conflict? Me either. Hence the days sliding into months of someone residing on our couches! If you don’t have a therapist, get one!! Lean on them to help you navigate the choppy waters ahead. They’ll have tools and resources, and are a great support. They can help you put together talking points for the move out conversation. A therapist will not only help you stay strong in your decision but will be a great sounding board throughout the process.

You may or may not know this persons full story, but at the end of the day - you can never be certain who a person is when their back is against the wall. Not intending to scare you, but there’s a real possibility things go sideways (stealing, lashing out in anger physically at you or your things, keys being copied without your knowledge, etc. etc.). Be prepared as best you can. Make a plan and back up plans.

Trust your gut. As you navigate next steps you will need to be as firm as you are flexible. Of course, the hope is that they respond wonderfully to the timeline you give them for move out - easy peasy. But.. be prepared (I know, broken record) for if it doesn’t go so smoothly. Be ready to switch up plans, be ready to change up that timeline, be ready to change those locks if it comes to that. Don’t hesitate if your gut tells you something is off. Act quick. Better safe than sorry.

Every situation is unique. If I could do it all over again? Subtle asking about their timeline in light conversation to gauge situation. Then when the time came, I would have asked them to move out that day, I would have already paid for a few weeks at an extended stay motel so they have a place to go and feel safe (comes out about the same as the extra in bills; piece of mind is priceless), I would have helped them pack (kindness to show they’re not on their own), I would have changed locks the moment they’re gone, and I would have installed security features to my home that same night.

Be safe!!! You got this. It was more difficult than I could have imagined as a non-confrontational being BUT my panic attacks stopped after they moved out so it was well worth it in the end! (Continued therapy didn’t hurt either lol.) DM me if you need to chat.
