    And on top of that, every failed relationship she has also impacts her children, which in turn makes the woman less likely to want to make a relationship work, and she"ll subconsciously or consciously do things to prevent one from working in order to spare the kid(s) from the pain of having yet...

    Adventures with lyrical - buying a business

    Yeah, either that or put a different phone number on the billboard could possibly work too. That way you know if they call line 4 or whatever that they"re automatically a billboard customer.

    Pretty unlikely. Just like everything else in life, once you"re with someone for awhile, you take them for granted that they"ll always be there, no matter what you do. Gotta make it a point to work at relationships or they"ll wither and die just like that cactus your grandma brought you back...

    Well, seems like you"ve got your mind made up, despite the facts that it"s pretty unlikely to pull something like this off in the current real estate market. So, I guess you"re either gonna find a way to squeak through, or you"re gonna fail miserably, so good luck with that!

    If you"re losing money on the townhome, how would you have enough equity in the new one to get a HELOC? You"re gonna need over 20% in the house (probably more like 35% with the numbers you"re talking about) in order to have anyone even talk to you about a HELOC, and if you"re losing money on the...

    Being in a relationship (friendship or romantic) with an addict is some of the seriously hardest shit you"ll ever do. It"s unrewarding, brutal, thankless work. It"s never going to be what you want it to be, and you"ll always be worried about the next time they fall off the wagon. Call it a...

    2 ex husbands + relationship immediately after the last one = almost assured failure. Regardless of whatever other math you believe in, this one here is true in every scenario. Long haul? Nothing in her character would lead you to believe she was in it for the long haul. She"s in it for the...

    1700? Fuckballs, the buying over renting argument is swayed pretty heavily in your favor if you"re paying $850 now and can get a place for 138. Nice job. Oh, and yeah, you"re in for a long wait. I was in the same boat and had to extend my lease a month too. The beautiful thing is that I can...

    Well, if you"re fucking IV drug users on a frequent basis, I"d say your low standards should be the larger concern rather than the AIDS. Aim higher and the problem sorts itself out.

    Straight guys don"t get AIDS, don"t worry about it. No, seriously, they don"t. Unless you"re doing IV drugs or fucking dudes in the ass, or had some bizarre transfusion accident (goddamned near impossible these days), you just don"t get AIDS. Now, that"s not to say that there aren"t other...

    Yup, I got a house that was sold for 310k in 2006 for 240k in 2009. I consider it my reward for 10 years of apartment living where every time we finally got enough ahead to start thinking about buying a house, prices went up just a little further, keeping it out of reach. The cocksuckers that...

    Yeah. Supposedly that shit is supposed to be accounted for at closing, with the current owner bringing all the city utilities up to date before the title is transferred to a new owner. I think the bitches ended up writing the check out wrong, because the numbers between the 2 parties didn"t...

    Bank accepted the offer (and the rest is hearsay, i have no way to confirm this) on the rabid pressing of the bank"s realtor. The story is that the bank wanted to relist it after they obtained possession (the foreclosure period was up about 6 weeks after our bid and it officially was no longer a...

    As Sharmai said, don"t spend it all, whatever you do. It"s not fucking hard at all to throw 10k into a house. You need shit you don"t even know you need right now, and it"s not a knock on anyone, it"s just the truth. I"m pretty sure I put 10k into the house within 4 months and I didn"t even...

    We found the house that we knew we were going to spend the rest of our lives in.

There"s no way in hell I wouldda bartered down the last 5k on the risk of losing it after we...

    All of this advice is bad. I mean, it"s fine if you don"t give a shit about the relationship, but you clearly do, so uhh, yeah, it"s not much help. This is an impossible situation to diagnose in a 40 word post. You"re gonna have to talk to her more and talk to us more if you want any kind of...

    Is there really a difference in this day and age? It"s not like there"s a whole shitload of wild humans out there that we can assess for their traits. Being a man in society involves a lot more than having a fucking ball sack.
