  1. Lid for every pot. Sorry, couldn't resist ๐Ÿ˜‰
  2. Nice new HR assistant. I introduced myself and immediately put my hands behind my back. She understood what I was doing and withdrew her hand and didn't make a big deal out of it. I've been sleeping well but still feel super drowsy. What's up with that? Doctor appointment next Wednesday. Hopefully the new NP listens better than that doctor I tried last time.
  3. I'm guessing she started acting distant when she moved closer and no longer had the excuse of distance to avoid meeting. Maybe she fears you won't like her if you see her in person. Why did your sister think you two would hit it off?
  4. I understand what it's like to want a romantic partner and not have any success. In high school I had no boyfriends. No one wanted to date me. I grew to believe I was ugly and unattractive and undesirable. It was only when I got a job at an amusement park in a nearby town that I found out I wasn't as ugly as everyone at school told me I was. Guys actually liked me and thought I was cute! I dated a very, very handsome and attractive young man! A few others wanted to date me! But in school? No one wanted me. It was soul crushing. My husband also had no dates in high school so we had that in common.
  5. Sometimes a guy I like doesn't like me back. It doesn't mean he's a narcissist or he has bipolar or BPD. My husband didn't "court" me, I guess. But he frequently bought me flowers and he bought me a car before we even got engaged. I considered those things romantic and signs he cared. Oh, and I cooked for him and helped him get a job where I was working. Was that "courting"? IDK Oh, and is it only on men to do this "courting" thingy or can women do it too?
  6. Some people think it's weird that I say hello to the people in my neighborhood when I go on walks. I know one person in particular who posts on this forum who says they never, ever speak to their neighbors. And this is in the US. I can't speak for other cultures. But we're quite diverse in the US. Some of my childhood friends had parents who threw the doors to their homes open and let any neighbor kids who wanted to roam in and out. My parents, OTOH, weren't super comfortable with hordes of kids running in and out. My son played with a couple of little girls in our apartment building who were of different ethnicities and they had never eaten dinner at a home other than their own. The idea was completely foreign to them. But I would imagine a friendly hello is pretty universally appreciated.
  7. I find blond or sandy haired men attractive but the last three relationships I had were with dark haired men. They all had really pretty eyes though.
  8. That makes me sad. I neither fear nor hate the male gender. I think men are beautiful, just as I think women are beautiful. In some similar and some very different ways. And I love the differences. I don't want to date a man who acts like a woman. If I wanted that I would just date women. However I am fine with however someone chooses to conduct themselves as long as it's done with kindness and a genuine caring for others. I see good, kind people of all ages and all socioeconomic ranges. And I see attractive people across the board. I choose to love, celebrate and admire others, not hate them or fear they're out to get me. I have two friends who constantly state "everyone's an a-hole" and "I hate people". How sad.
  9. Maybe he's trying to get his long-suffering wife to file. News flash, he could still be ordered to pay all court costs even if she files. Especially if they're in the US and live in a "fault" state.
  10. OMG I'm in a Teams meeting and one of the attendees accidentally turned his camera on. It clearly showed him lying in bed ๐Ÿ˜†
  11. If I recall correctly you said you have a lot of debt, which is why you took this second job. I don't know if taking on even more debt is a good idea. Plus, you would have to be able to afford to not make any profit for six months to a year, which means you would need to have enough savings to make the mortgage and loan payments you currently have in addition to business and personal expenses. How about setting up as a business consultant or providing administrative services to various businesses? That would require very little startup cash. You could have multiple clients. I did some bookwork on the side years ago (billing and accounts receivable). It was nice to have extra money coming in and I didn't have to get a business license or get a loan. And you could choose your clients instead of being stuck with just one you don't like or respect.
  12. This might be a "woman" thing but I wouldn't want my neighbor admitting he's listening in to what I'm doing in my apartment. That would feel forward and intrusive.
  13. BTW, do you know what they call men who use the pull out method? "Dad".
