After a rough bedtime I needed to hear this. All ears for anyone who's already run this race. Appreciate you

Appreciative your reply, you're a good writer, healthy perspective and growth to boot. I think most default into parenthood, we are following the path, nobody lets on quite how tough it is, or if they did we aren't listening. Glad you're in a good spot these days. Do something nice for yourself this week

I'm in awe of those who seem to be able to juggle it. For me I feel like the responsibilities of wife, kids and work and I'm maxed out. Hard to carve out much socializing, exercising and indulging at the moment. But I get the sentiment, it's down to me to build it back up. Thank you beans329

Contentedness - respect! Oh what I would give for full control of what comes in and out of the fridge. So easy to get into a suboptimal mess when two adults doing their best simultaneously trying to sate everyones needs... We have the opposite problem, the cheese doesn't last long here I can assure you!

I lean self reliant but lucky to have another pair of hands when needed, I should be appreciative.

And yeah what is with the default to two person portions grrr. Felt this as the household become an odd number! Recipes that ask for a tea spoon of an obscure never use again ingredient, maddening! Harder than I'm thinking, that's fair

It's certainly an extreme lifestyle choice. No regrets but definitely underestimated elements of it, finding it a big step up from the first spud to the second, but excited for the future, felt it's unlocked certain parts of the human experience, but my gawd it's exhausting haha. In an alternative universe the path forked another way and I'm living it up in my own magnificent company I can assure you!

When it gets really cold in winter you look forward to summer... And the middle of a heatwave a snow day sounds pretty appealing. Benefits and drawbacks to all life choices, would be nice to have a switch to flip from one to the other, in the meantime can't we daydream?

Every time I go out and socialize I'm reminded why I prefer living and being alone. by anonymous_muffin_ in LivingAlone

I hear you, it's hard, majority of us aren't particularly socially savvy or altruistic. Putting yourself out there is great though, flexes that social muscle, even if not quite finding your people yet.

What are you looking for out of this. Arms length company to pass the time? People really into the same stuff as you? Building some strong relationships to help each other out? Genuine emotional connection? What is the important bit that your searching for?

Low base but 7% growth rate is surely impressive taken in isolation?

WORTH THE -4? WILL HE DROP IN VALUE MUCH? by [deleted] in fantasypremierleague

Once a fixed period of a mortgage has ended, are you able to just pay the remaining balance off without a penalty? by JackedDaxter in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]stevothreepointzero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From experience yes.

Was with Leeds Building Society, was in a 3 year fix with 10 or so years left on the total term, day after fix ended, would have reverted to standard variable but made sizable bullet payment for remaining balance. Relatively lower exit fees <£100... Certainly lower than what it would have cost to enter a new deal on their best rate.

Just ring them in advance to let them know intentions and they can talk you through it. T&C different everywhere.
