I rent from a really nice landlord. Great people, they've been very understanding whenever I have had an issue and really just nothing but good things to say about them so far. They're not perfect, but I count my lucky stars when I hear stories about other landlords.

One downside is they do not do electronic/online payments for rent. So every month I have to write a check or get a money order and drop it off in a box nearby my house. As you can imagine, that particular process can be a bit problematic for me sometimes and I have missed the rent deadline a couple of times.

They've been really great about reminding me and waiving the late fee for it; and I love that sentiment and gesture of kindness. But holy crap, does it mess with my head! Now my brain thinks it can simply get away with procrastinating rent because "oh I can get to it next week with no real consequences!" (Of course, there are, but my landlord is choosing to take the brunt of it out of the kindness of their heart).

I just feel bad when it happens like that. It's so easy to come off sounding ungrateful for their generosity. I go through this whenever I am in a relationship or living with someone too haha. I have to ask them to not clean up my messes, but instead remind me to do it a few times throughout the day if I haven't done it yet. I'm curious if others experience this as often as I do.

It even feels weird to vent about it. It feels like I am essentially complaining about people being nice haha! What a concept.
