  • I don’t make friends with people whose views contradict mine. That being said, I basically have two friends, one of them doesn’t care about politics (she’s young and lost) but we do agree on important topics while the other is a leftist but does not care much about politics either. The only person I can fully discuss politics with us my boyfriend, which I’m very grateful for.

    As for making friends, I would probably make friends outside communist circles in the future. Having come to the same conclusion is not necessary for a friendship to work, but not agreeing on major issues is. The communist scene in my country is mostly old people who don’t represent ML values, just a force of habit. The anti communist propaganda is really strong so while many young people agree with what we are saying, they are afraid to associate with the commies or have no/false information about the movement.




  • It would be really unfortunate for me to sell the apartment financially, due to local regulations and having bought and sold real estate recently (sold our cottage and moved in with parents) so I’d rather hold onto it for now. We’re talking about money that wouldn’t get me a year’s worth of rent in another country, so nothing fancy but i want to make smart decisions and just having a big sum of money sitting in the bank is not that. I’d rather rent it to a company (the local factory has lots of foreign workers and they pay for their rent)




  • I’m really interested in the answers because I’m about to inherit an apartment that I don’t plan to live in. Looking at the market, I’m hesitant to sell, as I would have to pay hefty taxes. Letting it stand empty does not make sense.

    I did not purposefully purchase this apartment to make money on it, I’d much rather have grandma around, and I’m planning to sell it in about 5 years when we’re gonna be looking for a new place with my parents.

    My best bet is renting it out below market price and being a kind and understanding landlord, which sounds like an oxymoron to me too…

    Any thoughts on my situation?






  • A must is for our core values to be aligned: the way they see the world, as in politics religion (or lack thereof in my case), ethics, etc. Anything that might result in coming to a crossroads down the line. I don’t want children so I wouldn’t be with someone who is hard set on having them. I don’t eat animals or animal products so I wouldn’t be with someone who does. Above all, I look for kindness in people and I’m very grateful that there is so much of it in my current life partner 💕

    I don’t think taste is something that has to match, or interests. A general curiosity regarding what your partner likes is great but to me, a shared taste in music or movies is not necessary.
