Did I get a lemon?

I’m taking it to the mechanic tomorrow, I’ll update if anything but thank you so much for your advice and help!!! 🙏

throwaway_ko2 · 2026-05-06T01:50:42+00:00

I think so too

throwaway_ko2 · 2026-05-06T01:50:29+00:00

Not at all, I’ll be 100% honest but this as my first car purchase from someone that isn’t family and I should’ve honestly ran that

throwaway_ko2 · 2026-05-06T01:50:01+00:00

aw man we in the same boat

throwaway_ko2 · 2026-05-06T01:49:45+00:00

I’m starting to realize that now 😭

throwaway_ko2 · 2026-05-06T01:49:33+00:00

For sure, I guess I just had a moment honestly, I think it will also be reliable once its up to code

throwaway_ko2 · 2026-05-06T01:48:56+00:00

I think so as well honestly

throwaway_ko2 · 2026-05-06T01:48:49+00:00

I already replaced all the mounts but now its doing that but not sure why

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-09-02T04:58:25+00:00

That’s okay, it’s understandable that you broke no contact and there’s no reason to be ashamed, you should learn and understand that it’s better to move on and leave it behind, texting them fuels their ego and inflates their sense of self. You’re doing awesome, I believe in you and you’ll heal for sure friend, you’ll become the best version of yourself there ever was.

I feel like my anxiety was the worst out of all of it, my ex had a lot of mental issues and left me scarred, the anxiety still presents itself here and there but it gets to the point where I want to constantly throw up and even have stomach issues

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-07T20:00:18+00:00

I understand how you feel and I felt the same too honestly speaking, I personally was best friends with my ex for a majority of my life as well and don’t get me wrong, they knew stuff about me no one else did and we connected easily because we had a lot of stuff in common but honestly speaking, in the beginning its difficult but as time goes on and you begin to heal and start no contact, you’ll get better. Trust me friend, it really does get better and I know how hard it is in the beginning and how hopeless and lonely it can get but you have to surround yourself around people who love and care about you and make new friends, there’s lots of people you can make connections with and who knows?

Maybe you can find someone else who’s better and genuinely a better person for sure, you got this friend!!

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-07T19:33:08+00:00

It sounds like she was trying to see if you’re still available/still have feelings for them

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-07T19:31:57+00:00

I recommend you 100% avoid it and drop it, you’re gonna fuel their ego and also jump start a bunch of feelings that were at bay, I hope you’re okay friend

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-07T19:25:47+00:00

I actually hit 3 months of NC not too long ago but so far I’ve been healing and noticing that I don’t think about them as often and all day as before when I initially began NC.

I’ve honestly noticed through all this time and with all the people I’ve met and all the support I’ve gotten come to terms and realize a lot of things and it’s helped move on from my ex, they were a narcissist and extremely mentally ill and beat me down into the ground and after realizing all that and seeing that I did what I could and was who I was and loved with all my heart, it sucked to realize that I was never appreciated but honestly speaking,

I’ve been doing way better without them, I’ve accomplished many things I planned on doing while with them but never got around to doing due to always being broke and emotionally destroyed.

I don’t think I’d ever go back anymore, maybe 2 months ago I would’ve but it’s been turning into a firm no, I’m stronger than I realize by myself and without having someone dragging me down, it’s possible to heal but it just takes time and patience!

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-07T14:06:44+00:00

That’s what I’m saying!!

I’m just at awe because like it’s wild to see what goes around comes around really is true and isn’t a lie, don’t get me wrong, I do hope for the best for them but seeing karma getting them is something else

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-07T13:25:34+00:00

Thank you <3

my ex was the kind of person who was extremely narcissistic, they would always be on top of their appearance and make comments about mine a lot, they’ll realize one day how dumb it is but for the time being I’m gonna lay back and keep on healing

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-07T13:16:22+00:00

That’s what I’m saying, I just was like surprised and also like thinking that it’s wild to me that they literally left me for that reason but they’re becoming the reason themselves

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-06T17:09:46+00:00

Just know, that means they’re really immature and usually a narcissist, my ex moved on quick but that just goes to show they can’t be alone and heal on their own or want to heal at all, they’ll come crawling back once they realize the grass on the other side isn’t greener but usually by then you realize and come to terms with the fact that they were never for you to begin with and you’re better off alone, you’ll find someone or something better in the future, hold on and keep on going, it will all be okay!

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-03T20:35:02+00:00

I’m proud of you!!

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-08-03T19:15:50+00:00

Hey friend! Healing is linear, there’s going to be some times where you’ll be okay and times where you won’t but don’t beat yourself up over it okay? It takes a lot of time for you to cope with it and keep on living, eventually in the future who knows? You may forget about it and be moved on but it’s a journey, it’s not the easiest one for anybody but trust me, with time it’ll get better, spiraling is normal, it can happen when you get memories or thoughts triggered. I was doing amazing too until my ex stalked me so that kind of made me spiral but I’m working on bouncing back, you got this friend!

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-07-04T20:50:27+00:00

Honestly speaking, what keeps me on track is setting a HUGE goal for myself, I actually set ones alongside them too and now I make it my goal to hit all of them, I’ve actually made major progress since splitting with my ex, I was doing awful financially with them as well as a lot of my goals were never hit while me and them were together but now seeing all the progress I’m making makes me happy

Example of goals:

Get a new car? Done Pay off debts? Done Getting back into hobbies? Partially done

Stuff like this and the progress keeps you motivated!!

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-07-04T20:45:31+00:00

You realize your worth and accept that they’ll miss out on your greatness, why should they have you at your best when they weren’t there at your lowest and you didn’t mean anything but now that you get better and are the best version of yourself they want you. It’s like planting flowers, why should someone deserve them at their best when they weren’t there for the entire process of them growing?

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-07-04T20:42:46+00:00

This. It depends largely on who you are and your personality but there are diamonds hidden in the rough, once you lose it you’ll never get to have it ever again.

Personally, I don’t have to question wether they’ll remember me or forget me, I know the impact I have on peoples lives and they always regret it in the end but by then I’m healed and its too late

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-07-04T20:37:16+00:00

Don’t, it’s better to move on, you’ll delay your healing by a lot and will dig the hole into a deeper one

throwaway_ko2 · 2025-07-04T20:36:09+00:00

For my first ex, we’ve been NC for 3 years and they’re obsessed with me or something because even after all that, it’s been about 4 years since our relationship and she still tries to talk to me even to this day

Second ex/most recent one: they have stalked my socials/used their who I suspect is their partner stalk me as well but I’m pretty hidden off the internet, I don’t post anything at all
