Water proof boots.

I bought a nice pair of Wolverine water proof boots($105) for work not even a year ago. The whole water proof thing was gone after like 2-3 months and now they are tearing apart. Literally.

I have a pair of wolverine boots that are over a year old and aren't even advertised as waterproof. Almost every good pair of boots loses the seal after a while. I buy the stuff to re seal mine once every few months. I spend enough time in mud, dirt, etc.

Falling apart is a different story. Did they come with any sort of wear and tear guarentee ?

When people try to convince you to like what they like and try to justify why you should like it too.

Oh you don't like beer ? Have you tried this beer made by this company over here ? Best beer in the world, it will change your mind.

Oh you don't like this game ? Have you played with OSers ? It makes the game 10x more fun if you play with OSers.

Oh you don't like this tv show ? How many episodes have you seen ? Give it a half a season.

Oh you don't like this artist ? Well this year album was kind of weak, but if you listen to the album they did 4 years ago, you would understand how awesome of an artist they are.

Oh you don't like this sport ? Have you been to a game in person ? It is 10x more fun in person then on tv. If you go in person you would like the sport.

Oh you don't like this type of vehicle ? But it won dozens of safety awards, crafted by the gods themselves and the smoothest ride you will ever feel in your life.

The fact that I let myself get so emotionally attached to this girl in the last couple of weeks, fell for her games and let her lead me on, only to have her tell me last night that she doesn't see herself ever wanting to be with me. I'm an idiot and embarrassed that I was so naive to the situation.

B haha, I know and I should have listened to all you guys, as well as my real life friends. If I was on the outside of the situation I would have seen it coming a mile away, but my vision was clouded. It's all good though, will be better without her.

It truly is a lot easier to judge from the outside.

I've been through a rough patch with my fiancé that I posted about on here. A few said that I would be better off myself. But we worked things out (and neither her or I did anything egregious like sleep with another person), and our relationship has matured and is better than ever. What it came down to is I became more responsible and she realized she let others influence her decision and was just all too rash in breaking up with me. We resolved it like adults and that's why we're back together and have been since the one month break a couple years ago.

So I know it comes down to your gut instinct. I just as easily could have taken the advice here and who knows what could be.
