Reply to LPT: If your home/car has an odor you can use white vinegar as a extremely effective cleaning solution. by Alucard624
Vinegar and baking soda does nothing. It's only an internet's thing. If you combine an acid element with a basic one you get a neutral pH, loosing the benefits of both starting elements. So, don't combine vinegar and baking soda.

Just listen and show that you are listening ,listening itself will give you cues whether you should chime in or not.And most of the time venting just requires listening.

Stop wearing so much perfume. And eat some garlic before spending time outside. They are targeting you because of how you smell inside and out.

Ask them for advice on something. Everyone likes giving it and the fact you asked the person presupposes to them that you hold them in high regard.
Once you have the advice act on it. If it goes well tell the person and say thanks. If you're lucky you could end up with a mentor who will look after your interests if they're in a higher position than you.

Reply to comment by brknsoul in LPT request: how to get rid of a bad renter? by MastrovNL
Yeah I'm afraid we have to. The issue is that we have to pay legal fees in advance. And if we win (which we probably will) she has to pay it back. But she doesn't have any money. So it's kind of a gamble if it would cost us more money or not. Thanks for your help!

>Netherlands
Looks like you might have to get the courts involved. Partial payments can be considered late payments and is grounds for legal eviction.
Looks like the Netherlands is very pro-tenant. I suggest you look for legal advice.

The Netherlands. She has a year contract with us which can only be ended after a year or when a judge decided she has to go (after 3 months on no payment). She kinda left the house and moved to her bf because the bills started piling up and she can't pay. So I'm stuck with a room where I cant put in a new renter.

They would still swell up, but not to abnormal size.

"That's sounds horrible! I'm so sorry you're going through this." After they have sufficiently vented, ask if there's anything at all you can do to help. Offer a few small comforts (a seat and a glass of water'll do). Be physically comforting in the appropriate way for your relationship. Maybe just a soft hand on their shoulder. Talk calmly and soothingly to bring the general temperature of the conversation down. Then, just pay attention and BE THERE with them. This is what I always want when I am venting, and it seems to work for people I care about.
