    How to get confidence again?

    The best marriage advice I've heard, which does apply to this question.. Is that it's completely okay to "Have a bad year". It doesn't mean your falling out of love, or married the wrong person, or that your life is ruined... It's that you had a bad year, recover, work together, and rise again...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I'm willing to bet it's the verbiage you use when talking to an RE, that they then place you on the bottom of the pile.. When my wife and I were house hunting, I said "We're serious, we need a house asap, paying cash" (Took a loan from my parents, then got a mortgage after closing).. Anyways we...
