  • Problems with my Neighbor?

    My neighbor saw me raking my dead leaves under his evergreen. The branches go down to the ground so it's easy to hide the leaves, & they mulch anyway which is good for his tree.

    The problem is that he is mad about it and won't do me anymore favors.

    Did I do something wrong, what's the big deal?

  • Problem with Online Buyer?

    I was selling an item on Kijiji for $520 which was reasonably priced. I had 3 people interested in minutes. The 3rd guy offered $500. I said I already have a lot of activity but i'll do $510 to help him out a little.

    He refused and said he will do $500 firm and if I am going to decline over simple $10 that's my issue.

    I kindy replied saying that he is the one who is declining over the $10, thank's anyway but i'll have to sell to someone else coming.

    He replied the next day saying he got the item for $500 & that I was greedy and it's my fault for missing out etc.

    am i in the wrong?

  • Is this wrong or unethical?

    Is it unethical or wrong to go to a store that has minimal quantities of a popular holidal item like a game system, buy it, then sell it for more money on ebay or craigslist?

    You may be doing a service for one person (the buyer) who is willig to pay the extra markup price, but aren't you taking away from the other buyer who missed out trying to buy one for themselves or their child at the store who was technically there first?

    Thanks

  • Things people say out of anger?

    Would it be accurate to say that things people say out of anger is "the truth"?

    Not that it's right but People are bothered by things by other people but hold it in, and when sparked they let out everything that they are bother led by.

    For example, 2 spouses get into an arguement about something, then one of them brings up things completely off topic like "I make more income than you, you are a loser, nobody likes you, you have no friends, your credentials are weak, you have nothing going for you, etc".

    Would this be the truth coming out?

    My friend always says he is put down by his gf if they get into an arguement. After the arguement she says "I didn't mean that and was just saying it because I know it bothers you."

    I don't believe her, people aren't controlling their emotions when they are angry, they are getting everything off their chest and she is just using it as an excuse. Deep down his credentials, status, etc do bother her, she only keeps it in until she gets mad.

  • Family member acting strange?

    I dunno what to think of my cousin?

    He is very quick to poke fun at people and critizise but he does things that make me wonder - For instance I just started a new job an it was my 3rd day and he asked me to look after his dog the following Wednesday and he knows I work that day and just started. I told him (to be nice) I would love to help and see what I can do but I just started my job and i would have to call in sick. He said he could just take the dog with him but it isn't convenient and to do what I can to look after the dog.

    Next thing, he goes away on trips for months at a time annually and asks to maintain his home while away,

    Last, I just bought a new car and picked him up in it a few days back, he mentioned then that he was gonna look for a new car too since his old one is falling apart so he was looking into the same brand - fine. Less than a week later he bought the same car model, same series, same color that I just bought. I'm not bothered by the car, because it's just a car but it got me thinking why he did it and if he is acting sketchy or should I just be flattered?

  • Breaking up over the phone a no-no?

    If u are 19 and have a serious relationship with someone, sleep with them, tell them u love them, etc and then break up with them over the phone (which is low) and blame them for their flaws because u don't want to be with them anymore. I understand young people generally are self-serving and irresponsible... but doesn't this reflect their relationship values in general or is it something that is normal when young and u grow out of?

    I was always one to meet in person and owe it to tell them personally ever since I was 17, I would be sympathetic but assertive but never blame them.

  • Is this normal for a depressed girl?

    I knew a girl years ago, she had commitment fears and clincal depression. She jumped from one bf to another. She would dump her "first love" and run back to him many times then get into relaionships right away with emotionally unavailable guys.

    Since her last relationship with a guy she found another guy (unless she met him at an earlier time) shortly after and within 3 years (she is 24 yrs old) she got pregnant and now they are married and have a house.

    The only reason i don't ask her is because I'm the "first love". Last time I tried to talk to her was hen she was with an old bf where all she trie to do was make me jelous by saying how well they were together which clearly they weren't, so er answer would be bia if i asked her.

    Is that a fairly young age and short period of time for all that to happen or is it normal? Or maybe pregancy was an accident and the marriage/house cane after for the baby sake? Or maybe she got over her commitment fears and depression?

    Any ideas?

    I'm just wondering how she around
