In fairness they may have not thought you were that close. I have had sweeping depression and done a lot of internalizing after such things happened and in the end realized it wasn't about me. I watched The Banshees of Inisherin last week and felt so sad about the main character being told he wasn't someones friend anymore without reasons being given. Depression happens and there are professionals to talk with in case it becomes crippling.

If you’re in the US, go to the UPS store near you. Have them notarize a statement that the check is in the envelope. Send it so it requires a signature on receipt. They can do all this in the store.

Alternatively… open a separate checking account. Use it solely for rent checks. Deposit your rent in it each month. Write a normal check and send it via normal post. If the management company is cashing them, you’ll have a clear singular record. If they try to pull something shady, you have two important things;

1. The money they are owed.
2. Proof that you acted in good faith to pay your rent.

That would likely be enough to stop eviction proceedings in their tracks.

If you drop them in isopropyl, they should be fine.

Time.

What she did was terribly hurtful and insensitive. She isn’t your friend or a trusted coworker.

There are ways to not invite work colleagues that minimise the hurt, instead of amplify it.

She did neither.

Yeah hydrogen peroxide is better. Just providing an alternative for people who don’t have any around.

I like other ideas here but personally I like to use a method that removes loops and tying altogether. You basically end up with two ends as drawstrings where you pull them up to loosen and pull them down and out to tighten. It uses two moving knots and never come undone. Great especially for walking boots or if like me your hands get mechanically slow when cold. Works with gloves in etc. Sorry I can't recall the name of the method though. I'm sure a little googling or YouTube search will find it.

Actually, there's a better way. 1 /\ here. Most happiness is from finding that you must look within to find true enjoyment from the success from your achievements.

SHOUT works for me. Just let it sit for 24hrs.

Ymmv and often the “immediately” that is actually possible isn’t immediately enough to not have a bit of stain. But hydrogen peroxide, even when the stain is set, will denature those blood proteins right out of the fabric

You know what they call a quarter pounder with cheese in Paris?

If you have a bank account, you should be able to go to the bank and ask for a blank check even if you do not regularly order checks. Your bank will track whether he cashes the check.

Whether you pay by check or get a cashier's check, make a copy of it, keep whatever receipt your bank gives you. Any good bank will allow you to call to verify the cashier's check was cashed.

Make a copy of everything you send. A copy of the check. A copy of whatever the bank gives you. Take a picture of the certified mail you give the post office and keep the receipt.

Once you receive confirmation the delivery was accepted (which you can do online), call the office and verify they received your payment. Ask for the name of the person you are speaking with. If you know the email address of the landlord, follow up with an email "I just spoke with Vicki who confirmed you received the rent check for 123 Address."

If you receive an eviction notice, you have everything to prove you sent it, and you can go back to the bank, cancel the check and offer to wire the money.

Really depends on the relationship I guess.

We've done joint accounts almost exclusively. We only opened a separate account for her recently when online sportsbetting became legal in our state, since you can't fund two accounts from the same bank account.

I agree! There's no reason to strip either partner of all of their power and security. And money is power.

Splitting it into separate accounts holds each one accountable for their spending. The evidence will be clear. No he said, she said.

I think it would mean a more peaceful choice.

Have you considered that you are equally a human being, capable of cleaning? And that it isn't a woman's job to be your mommymaid?

Wow, you kill cats and you're a sexist pile of crap. What a winner.

Certified check through certified mail.

Use a Money Order and send it return receipt requested.

video yourself putting the check in the envelope at the post office and sealing it and handing to the mail clerk for registering

cold water will get all the blood out of you do it immediately

Wash them like the romans. They were experts at getting grease stains out.
