My newborn baby son (first child) might belong to the best man from our wedding. FML. by wolfbearpigletin relationships

[–]r_bacon 1 point2 points ago

As a son of parents who stayed together, yet didn't love each other, I'm saying this understanding that this is not an easy decision: staying together with your wife will result in less benefit for the three parties involved including you, your wife, and your child. Your child will learn how to act around a parter by watching your quasi-trusting relationship with your wife. Even if you're separated from your wife and she's maniacal, it's better to have one stable parent than two parents who cannot be an example for their children.

You will also be happier being in a relationship where you don't have to live with the stress of an unstable, immature partner.

Your partner will have to deal with the consequences of her actions. You must decide whether her life (assuming she commits suicide) is worth yours and the development of your child (assuming it is your child).

I would do this in a heartbeat....if I had his number. This is a google places review. All I can do is respond to it. I don't even have his email address.

Yes, I know this will be drowned out eventually, but in the mean time I can't help but be bothered by it. Thanks for the input, though. I think I'm going with something more to the point.

I really like this. I think I'm going to go with this kind of route. Props for the email address :)

You know, you may be right. The person reviewing me reviewed one of my competitors and gave them five stars, but only gave me two. Makes me wonder.

Fellow entrepreneurs, how many hours do you commit to your business each week? by CaptainSpongein Entrepreneur

Started 6 months ago. Working 60-70 hours a week. Hoping to drop those by 10 hours by 6 months from now.

So I just had sex with my roommate's ex-girlfriend. How should I handle this self-created clusterfuck? by [deleted]in relationships

[–]r_bacon 0 points1 point ago

If she feels the same way that you do, you should decide to sit down with him and tell him that you two have feelings for each other. I was a third (fourth?) party viewing a situation much like this. This event involved some of the most intelligent friends I've ever met, and they dealt with the situation in a upfront and honest manner. Everything worked out better than expected. Initial shock, but now they are all very open about what's going on and I often find them all hanging out and interacting with one another.

Sit down with you friend if she feels the same way and tell him that you've developed feelings for each other and that you'd like him to know because you respect him. If this is going to be nothing more than a fling, stop right the fuck now and move on--it's not worth it for short-term gain.

Advice on starting a hobby / business (vending machines) by 14lol14in Entrepreneur

[–]r_bacon 1 point2 points ago

My first thought was...what if the cafes and smoke shops sell lighters or give out matches anyway? I doubt you can get around this with the smoke shop, but with places like cafes, if they do offer matches, tell them you'll give them X% of sales to stop selling/giving them, or something along the same vein. You want to be the only (or at least best) option.

What is your favorite e-cart system? by good_humanin Entrepreneur

[–]r_bacon 2 points3 points ago

I'm using Interprise Solutions and it's a boat of program. Has storefront and everything in the backend (inventory, CRM, accounting, etc...) that you can imagine...except the promotional tools for webstores are basically nonexistant. Hard to run campaigns when you have to build your own coupon code software from scratch....

Looking to find bottles to sell a product. More specifically, I'm looking for the least expensive HDPE bottle to store a chemical solution. by r_baconin Entrepreneur

[–]r_bacon[S] 0 points1 point ago

Hmmmm...I'm not sure. I guess I'd have to ask someone who knew a lot about that. Alas I do not know anyone who knows about this, i think. I think I'm going to give a few bottle companies another call tomorrow to see what sort of info I can dig up. Thanks for the idea!

I use 8x8.com. I don't know if they do forwarding, but I needed 5 multi-line phones for my business and they were much cheaper than other non-VOIP multi-line options.

I give up. If anyone has the patience to read and reply with their thoughts, I'd love to hear them. :( by HowDoIReechThisGrlin sex

You should essentially show her this post. Take out a few sentences if you'd like and show her this off-reddit if you deem that more appropriate. Your thoughts in this are clear and concise--this will be much easier for her to absorb than hints and in-the-moment arguments. Good luck in this. Of course, read this if you haven't yet.
