  1. I already did that. They genuinely wanted to help but the moment they found that the dealer that I had purchased the car from had tampered with the roof they said they cannot do anything and asked me to go that dealer. They said the issue is happening because of what they did so I have to go to them only If things like engine, transmission etc are causing issues any BMW service center can fix it because the car is still under warranty. But for things like sunroof being tampered with they cannot fix
  2. Thanks everyone for the responses The car is under warranty I went to the dealer and spoke to the manager. He was rude and dismissive and didn't even want to hear me. He was like "we fixed the car, certified it, and only after that we sold it to you. what are you asking us to do now?? what do you want my technicians to do??" I was honestly appalled.. after I completely described the problem he said "Ok I will help you.. drop off the car next week" but it was very very clear to me and my friend that came with me that he is not going to do anything. They will just do a simple drive around on the smooth road near them and say we could not reproduce the issue. They know very well that the work they did on the rooftop before selling the vehicle is what is causing the issue but they do not want to deal with it now that they have sold the car to me I feel very confused now.. I know for sure that these guys are not going to fix the issue. I also read several reviews online about this dealership and there are so many negative reviews. I am actually considering a loss of around 20K and just trade-in this car and buy a new BMW.. but again it is 20K loss for something that I did not do.. I don't know what my options are at this point
  3. I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask for advice... I purchased a certified pre-owned 2022 model BMW 330i in March this year. The car had around 9000 miles on it when I purchased Initially everything was fine but then I started hearing noises coming from the top at the roof area. I also started hearing faint noise coming near the rear view mirror area. This faint noise is like the sparking sound when wires touch each other I took it to a service center near my place (not the service center of the dealer from where I purchased the vehicle. It is far and they also do not give loaner cars). The technicians inspected my car and found that lot of work was done on the car's roof and that is what is causing the issue I am facing. They refused to do any work on the car because this was done BEFORE I purchased the car and asked me to go back and talk to the dealer I was NOT informed about this major roof work when I was considering to purchase the vehicle. CarFax is also not showing this. I feel cheated by the dealership as they did not reveal this to me I do not feel safe driving the vehicle. I explained all of this to the dealer and he is just not answering me Ideally I want to return back the car. What are my options here? The dealer is not responding to my emails
  4. Yep, I'm done with her After I dropped her safely at her home I just went radio silence.. she asked me to text her once I got back home but I never bothered to By this time she must have figured out that it's over
  5. I did not mention this earlier, but when she was going on a long tirade, at one point I got confused and thought I must have made a serious mistake.. I really started to believe that I made a mistake and apologized to her two times 😔 Looking back I now realize how stupid I was 😐
  6. A sad thing in all of this is some of my friends are not even believing me. They are like "how is it possible for someone to get this mad simply because you took a different route? did something else happen?? are you not telling us the whole story?" 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
  7. I have to be honest here... the reason is because I am desperate. I am 47 years old, never had a girlfriend, and still not married. That's why I was still wondering if it was ok to get past this date from hell and see if things can be salvaged Also, one of my friends told me "dude, you are already 47 years old.. so what if she behaved rudely? you did make a mistake and that is why she over-reacted.. everyone deserves a second chance. ask her for another date and see if things change this time. no harm in giving it a shot.. otherwise you are just going to be single and you will soon be 50 years old"
  8. Hi Batya, Exactly my point. I really did not understand what was there to get so upset about? I told her "even if we cannot walk the entire bridge we can walk around half way" and she was like "arghhh.. you TOLD we would walk the bridge. and now you are telling this.. this is not cool.. this is such a bummer!!" We ended up walking 3/4th of the bridge and that's when she stopped her criticisms.. we also made it to the restaurant (an expensive one at that) on time I feel sad because we had such a good time during the 1st date (or meet, since we met through an app) and I thought there is so much potential Oh well...
  9. Thanks everyone for the replies Just some additional details here - for the first date my plan was only to spend 1 hour (drinks). But while we were having drinks she told "we can walk around after drinks, have dinner". So the date kinda extended.. after drinks, we walked around, went to a book store, and then had pizza. The whole date ended up being 5 hours, but I really had a good time For the second date I actually asked her for drinks and a movie but she said how about we do something in the city. So, I proposed walking on a bridge and then do dinner The problem is you can enter the bridge through the city (traveling North) or you can enter from the South without touching the city. Google maps suggested entering from the South because it was 8 minutes faster and in a haste I took that route and started driving I have to agree that it was a mistake because only by traveling up North you can reach the specific spot on the bridge where its possible to park the car. So I take responsibility for that. But I did not expect her to become so mad about that. She started worrying if there would be enough time to walk the bridge and then make it to the restaurant for dinner... she was also super irritated that I didn't go through the city. I said "I understand, but how about we reach the bridge and I can make a U-turn and get back up North and get to the spot to park" and she was like "men make plans.. they always have everything planned.. how come you didn't plan properly? why did you pick this route instead of the other?". If she made that comment just once or twice it would still be ok but she kept going on and on and on.. the constant criticism for around 30 minutes hit a nerve. I asked her why she is so upset about this and she said "I am a Virgo. I make detailed plans for everything and get very upset if things don't go according to plans" After all this drama we did end up reaching the bridge, parked the car, walked 3/4th of it, and made it to the restaurant on time. That's when she stopped the criticisms (she did complain we only covered 3/4th) The reason why I continued with the date is because it was me that asked her for the second date and it was my decision to pick her up. So I didn't want to abruptly end things.. I just wanted to finish the date as decently as possible and think things later Also, I am now 47 years old and never been married. She is 38. So, I was hoping that things go well but unfortunately this does not look like a situation that can be salvaged By the end of the date she started telling me "I was not criticizing you, I was criticizing Google Maps because it put you on the other longer route..". She also said we could get another drink once we reach her city.. I don't know why she said all that after being so mad at me
  10. I matched with a woman on a dating app and we started chatting. It went very well and then I got her number The phone call went well and I asked her if we can meet for drinks. She agreed and we met that weekend. It was really awesome, the date went for exactly 5 hours I then asked her out for the second date the following weekend and she readily agreed. The plan was to walk on a bridge and then have dinner I drove to her place (1 hour drive) and picked her up and we headed to the bridge. In just 10 minutes things went south. Apparently what happened was Google Maps showed two different routes but highlighted one (because even though it was longer it took a shorter drive time compared to the other). So, I took that route and she became very mad about it. She started complaining why I was taking the longer route? why I was not entering the bridge through the city? why I did not plan properly? How will we have time to walk the bridge and then be able to make it to the restaurant in time?? I understood that I should have taken the other route but we were already driving.. so I told her "Ok, let's get to the bridge and then figure out things. if required I can make a U turn and get to the original spot on the bridge we planned for" but she was so angry and kept telling "bummer", "this is not cool", "men plan these things.. men always plan things and be prepared. how come you did not plan properly?". I was so turned off and also got very nervous and wished she stopped but she kept going on and on and on (for around 30 minutes continuously) We finally reached the bridge and walked 3/4th of it. After that she stopped complaining.. we then had dinner at the restaurant but I had completely shut off by this time. I then safely dropped her back home and left. The second date was also around 5 hours but it felt like a nightmare I am now wondering what to do. I truly enjoyed the first date.. we had also spent around 10 hours together in the two dates. But yet at the same time her behavior in the second date is really making me very concerned Any thoughts? have any of you had a bad date but continued seeing each other?
  11. Funny you use that term Cherylyn. I have had a woman say the exact same thing to me. She said "I find you to be very emotionally intelligent" and she ghosted me starting from the next day I liked all of the responses here. The situation that I am dealing is mainly through Online Dating. In this specific case it was an Indian Matrimonial app and not a Dating app. A matrimonial app is similar to a dating app but it is lot more serious and mainly geared towards marriage. Once people connect and if things go well they meet a few times in person and then it is marriage.. unlike months and months of dating, getting engaged, staying engaged, and then finally getting married This is one of the reasons why this incident hurts me a lot. I don't understand why she met me 2 times and then decided to reject. In a typical dating scenario this would be like rejecting after 8th or 9th date
  12. Thanks wiseman I am just struggling to cope with the endless rejections at age 46 😢
  13. Thanks So when is the guy supposed to know she likes him? what if he takes her out on 10 dates and then she does not feel the spark in the 11th date?
