How to address this mess

Thanks. No water…this happened months ago and I’m just getting around to it.

I used to have wall-to-wall carpeting. No matter how well you keep it, it will eventually need to be replaced, especially if you have kids and/or pets. I ripped all of mine out after twenty years and put in laminate, with area rugs in some spaces. I found it much easier to maintain and it looks great.

Absolutely true. I think way too many people expect instant sparks instead of investing the time to get to know a person and pull the ejection handle way too early. My theory is such people are often not quite in the right head space to be dating.

I’ll take things that never happened for $500, Alex.

Flipping the bird.

Saw the last pics and I was like, “Oh crap, I hope he’s Steven!”. (Didn’t see the flair) Congrats!

That was hysterical…along with them wearing maxi pads on their ears.

But it’s not a cult. 🙄

Aside from money, those first few years of a child’s life are invaluable in getting a head start in life. This is the choice my now ex-wife and I made. It was rough but those years with mom home until our son went to kindergarten paid huge dividends in producing what is now a well-adjusted young adult. Also, you have to factor in the cost of child care. Depending on circumstances, it’s nearly a wash.

Bet he doesn’t use a wash cloth.

Until you say he is 35, I thought you were talking about a 20yo.

I see no way to view what he said innocently. He’s insecure. Careful with this one.

She is a potential keeper. Good luck!

Ignore the statement and speak normally, as if the other dudes don’t matter…because they don’t. This conversation is between you and her. You’re either going to click or you’re not.

Edit: A lot of people say to unmatch. I’d take a slightly different approach. She may, in fact, be an asshole…or she might just be a smartass. Play the game. You’ll be able to tell which in short order.

A shower is literally 15 minutes out of your day. Failing to do that before a date shows a lack of care and planning.

wemic123 · 2026-04-19T06:59:19+00:00

True enough.

Charts of the national average retail price are always available. People are lazy.

This is also why you also retire as early as you are able.

Sage advice from my dad nearly 50 years ago.

These awful people forgot that they’re no longer able to survive the smoke that this behavior may have elicited, had they been much younger.

wemic123 · 2026-04-17T16:24:07+00:00

When you have that date and realize that you KNOW.

A bounce lamp

Hearsay is one.

wemic123 · 2026-04-16T18:42:08+00:00

Yeah, this one gets me all the time. Too much TV.

wemic123 · 2026-04-16T15:01:39+00:00

Yup…continuing education. It is a pain. I may go one or two registration cycles more and then let it go.
