Hidden Fees Branch Banking

 

Banks, banks a good because they are in person and you can go there if you have any problems but the problem with an actual bank is that they make you sign all kinds of paperwork stating that there is no this or that or overdraft fees because you sign the overdraft protection but yet, when you get paid and try to move money to a banking platform but accidentally hitting the wrong amount button and then you find out that the overdraft protection is on and now your in trouble because you thought the overdraft protection is on but it is not and then they add the bank privilege on top of it and now you owe even more than you expected mind you the overdraft fee is $32+ dollars but you signed a paper and the paper does not matter so now you are $32 in the hole because you were trying to keep the account active by sending money to it.

 

This happened to me and it was not suppose to. I hopped in an chat on the bank asking what is this and why is it like this and they told me I'm opted in to bank privileges and overdraft protection even though I signed the paper, I had to manually go into the banking app and turn it off. No one has said anything about this when I went to the branch because I signed the paper that was suppose to turn it off but apparently opting out on paper did not transfer over into their system and still getting hit left and right because I thought they fixed it for me but no, they did not.

This is why I only bank on online banks. I got tired of the hidden fees and being done every which way. Yes, it was good to have an actual branch to go to but in the end, it is a problem dealing with it and then being lied to and having all these hidden fees that you did not see coming. 

Chime has never let me down, I do not have to worry about hidden fees, I use it every month and or when I get paid from my jobs. I love it because it is easy to use, I have a spot me overdraft in which friends that uses chime boosts me every month and my limit rises. They also have a loan process called my pay you can get once you have had so many direct deposits. 

 This to me is so much better than the branch bank because every time I turned around I was being overcharged and the hidden fees that they have just was not worth it not to mention the monthly fee and other things they charged for. 

Chime offers cashback and deals in which are great because who doesn't like cashback when they buy things.

I also use Paypal for one of the jobs because I get paid in pounds and USD and Paypal converts it for me and then I can use it or move it with no issues. Paypal offers cash back offers in which is a great thing. If I purchase from a website I am not sure of, I can always request a refund and I have had no issues with it. One thing for sure, I would verify my account that way it does not get closed or taken and that is how I still have mine.

If you are trying to boost your credit, Current and Chime  has a credit builder.

Empty Promises

 After awhile, a person becomes numb to empty promises. When a person say and promises they are going to do something but they end up not doing it and your expectations lowers and lowers every promise that they do not do, you end up getting use to them saying they are going to do it and end up doing nothing in which you end up getting your hopes up and end up being crushed making it so you have to end up doing it and making plans of having to fix what they said they were going to do. 

Another thing is being said but it is so empty. Getting fed up with everything and eventually you end up taking over and trying to do everything without letting the other know until it is done because expecting them to do it just makes you feel empty. 

Having expectations of a person or the man of the house just for them to not even hold their weight but come up with every excuse and reason why they shouldn't while you juggle 36 different things from your kids, to bills to making sure the house is good to making sure your health is good to making sure everything is working great and correctly to making sure that everything is working and going smoothly and if something happens you end up trying to fix it. 

This causes a lot of sleepless nights, a lot of silent cries and just a lot of strain on your body and health trying to be this picture perfect but in reality it just tears you down to the point you no longer want to do it anymore. 

You no longer want to be in a marriage where everything looks great with a fake smile juggling everything including the empty promises and emotions along with the weight of the man or woman you supposedly love who promised to do everything they can and said they would but only does the bare minimum or none at all leaving it all for you to end up doing because we all know they are not. 

This can be projected on men or it can be projected on women. This can be a perspective of anyone because anyone can leave broken promises. I know this feeling all to well and honestly, it is a tiring feeling. I done cried all the tears I can along with I done tried, I done screamed, I done showed so much how it bothers me just for nothing to happen but the excuse of I'm to tired or I'll do it later and it gets done months later with the "I forgot." even though I just brought it up and brought it up again and don't let me say I have to do something because it turns into they will do it and guess what, the same thing happens. 

How to Strengthen a relationship

 Relationships take work, but small, thoughtful actions can deepen your connection and build trust. Whether it's romantic, familial, or with friends, here are five ways to strengthen any relationship:

1. Communicate Openly

Clear communication is essential. Make time to talk honestly about your feelings, needs, and challenges. Listening is just as important as speaking.

2. Show Appreciation

Small gestures of gratitude go a long way. A simple “thank you” or compliment reminds your loved ones that they’re valued and appreciated.

3. Spend Quality Time Together

Make time for each other, even amidst busy schedules. Whether it’s a date night, a weekend getaway, or just a quiet evening at home, being present matters.

4. Practice Empathy

Try to understand your partner’s or friend’s perspective. Empathy helps you navigate conflict and strengthens emotional bonds.

5. Be Supportive

A strong relationship is built on mutual support. Be there for each other through challenges, celebrate successes, and offer encouragement along the way.

Strengthening a relationship isn’t about grand gestures, but consistent, thoughtful actions that show you care. Start with these small steps, and watch your connections grow deeper and more fulfilling over time.

The Loneliness That Doesn’t Disappear: Learning to Heal and Appreciate What You Have

It doesn’t matter how many people surround you—whether they are friends, family, or acquaintances—loneliness can still creep in. You can be surrounded by laughter, conversation, and love, but if something inside you feels incomplete, that feeling of isolation can linger. Sometimes, even in the company of others, we feel a deep sense of being disconnected, as if there’s a part of us that no one can truly reach.

It’s easy to think that achieving everything we’ve ever dreamed of will fill that void. We believe that having the perfect job, the ideal partner, the dream home, or even financial success will magically erase the loneliness. But the truth is, no external achievement or material possession can fix what’s broken within. If you're still carrying around old wounds, unresolved pain, or unhealed emotional scars, no amount of external validation or material success will ever fill that emptiness. The loneliness isn’t a result of what you lack in the outside world; it’s a reflection of what you need to nurture within yourself.

In order to truly overcome loneliness, you must start by looking inward. Healing begins when you take the time to address your own emotional and mental well-being. Self-care is not just about pampering yourself or putting on a smile for others—it’s about acknowledging your pain, understanding your worth, and taking the steps to rebuild the parts of yourself that feel broken. This may require difficult introspection, seeking professional help, or simply learning how to forgive yourself for past mistakes. It’s a journey that takes time, but it’s one that is essential for your own peace of mind.

Another key to overcoming loneliness is gratitude. It’s easy to fall into the trap of constantly striving for more—more success, more possessions, more approval from others. But when you’re always looking for something new or different, you risk overlooking the beauty of what you already have. The people around you, the small moments of happiness, the things that bring you peace—these are the things that can fill your heart with warmth if you take a moment to appreciate them. When you stop taking everything for granted, you begin to see the abundance that already exists in your life.

Gratitude isn’t just about feeling thankful for the big things, either. It’s about recognizing the value in the everyday moments—like a kind word from a friend, the laughter shared over a cup of coffee, or the comfort of a familiar face. When you learn to appreciate what’s already in your life, you open yourself up to deeper connections and a greater sense of fulfillment.

Remember, loneliness isn’t always about the number of people around you; it’s about the quality of the connection you have with yourself and others. Healing and growth come from within, and the more you invest in nurturing your own emotional health, the less lonely you will feel.

So, take the time to work on yourself. Take the time to appreciate the good things and the good people already in your life. When you stop taking everything for granted, you may find that the loneliness begins to fade, and the world around you feels a little brighter, a little fuller.

Feels

 The soul sinking feeling of watching everyone you grew up with have friends they can go to or talk to while you stick to yourself because you never fit in. 

The feeling of wishing you could have a friend but you don't so you decide to go searching for a friend but end up finding people who are not friend type and just do things to you just for their pleasure or just because.  

The hopes that you have a support group because  your family isn't the greatest and you're just wishing you had someone else in your corner besides your spouse. Watching people get invited to outings or things and you end up at home by yourself wishing someone would invite you to something.

 Wanting to have someone to have kids so your kids can become best friends also. This is a dream.. This was what I was hoping for but in the end, I did not get that.
