chiyochan I think that is quite a decision to be made. you do need to make sure that whatever you have decided, on whether to go report it or not would depend on you as you have to consider the consequences and the relationship that would be broken. i think whatever it...

Jenny1015 I think that it is necessary for the landlady to know that she should abide by the rules coz she will never know what might happen. Atleast help her realize that her apartment does not meet the standards and that she should do something about it.

Shellyann36 If you report it there is the likely chance that they will condemn it for living and you will be forced to move. I think that if you have a problem with the smoke then you should approach the landlady and ask for your deposit back and move. If she refuses to...

Arieles There may be laws about how high the ceilings can be, but depending on when the building was built, it may be impossible to change, so it could be "grandfathered in" If the smoke is that bad, I would just move out, because even if you do report it and find out...

Adoniah You need to read the tenant land lord laws for the area in which you live. Every state and many counties and cities have different laws. If you signed a lease, was it a legal one or just a lease that the land lord wrote up herself? One of the other respondants...

Canellita What you can do about this situation depends on what the laws are where you live. Have you contacted your local tenants association? They would be able to tell you what your rights are and what actions you can take, but be prepared to move if you make an enemy...

willc98 That's a tough issue right now. In some places you can't smoke at all in public places indoors. The lady has rights to smoke in the place she pays rent. So really there are two possibilities, nasty smoke or bad vibes :) If she or a building manager will...

lacieice One of the keys to a good, solid relationship is communication. If you can't talk about stuff, it makes it very difficult to sort it out. On the other hand, sometimes stupid arguments are not worth talking about. Sometimes its best to just put it behind you...

lacieice Sounds, to me, like there is more going on than a spat over dishes. I think you should think back over the last few weeks and see if you can pinpoint when these little spats started and why. Perhaps it's time to reevaluate the relationship.

GemmaR I don't think that you should ever stay in silence with a partner for any longer than necessary. The longer you are like this with him, the harder it is going to be when you eventually wish to speak to him again as this would mean that there was a lot of bad...

MsControversy Letting dishes soak is not lazy. If you have to wash them by hand and don't have a dishwasher and have pots or pans to clean, you are supposed to let them soak in hot water to cut through some of the grease. Letting dishes soak is not lazy at all. That was...

ElicBxn I don't work in oils, so I'm not sure about the actual framing. I have framed pictures, both with and without mats, but they have been a flat, paper medium. I guess I would probably start with online research.
