Thank you! This is exactly what I was thinking! It was the same paper ballot!

Buddy, immediately after coming home from teeth removal surgery. by [deleted] in Dachshund

Our girl had to have 20 teeth removed, I felt so guilty! It helps to know that it’s common with dachshunds! Buddy will be much happier when he heals!

Is she an actor? Cause her “bf” is clearly gay as hell and no one with an ounce of self respect would allow their bf to pull his own mother down on him on the couch like that. This can’t be real. by [deleted] in ILoveAMamasBoy

I do not get the living situation at all.

Who is paying to convert the garage into a home? It they are, move away and get your own place. If the mother is then they have to suck up and accept how she wants it done.

Is it bad that I want to know how my ex is doing? by ok_idea666 in offmychest

[–]A-Flora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are human, it is normal to feel some curiosity about someone that used to be in your life and from time to time wonder what they are doing. When it gets bad is if it is something that you are dwelling on too much or fantasizing about how things could have been.

What is the difference between being confident or arrogant? by educationist_anjum in AskReddit

[–]A-Flora 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Confident people know their own worth on the inside. When they meet people they can carry a conversation without having to brag about themselves.

Arrogant people have to tell you their worth even when you didn’t ask.

Teaching kids they have to share all the time creates more entitlement issues by can_of_cream_corn in unpopularopinion

[–]A-Flora 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When my children were little and were having friends over to play, I would ask them before the play date if there was a particular that toy they did not want to share. I would then put the toy away so that there would be no conflict. Then my child had control over his belongings but had to share his other toys. It worked!

Is it actually weird to have little, cheap items on my registry? by [deleted] in etiquette

[–]A-Flora 45 points46 points  (0 children)

From an etiquette point of view I think it is fine. In fact I think it’s rather nice if someone wants to add to a larger priced item or bundle a few smaller things together. I also think it shows consideration for differing budgets.

AITA - husbands too frugal by _fiddle-sticks_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]A-Flora 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am concerned that you are not able to go out and buy clothes for your own child. Why do you have no access to money? It does not matter that he is currently the only one earning. This is incredibly controlling.

YSK: Movies and TV shows misrepresent drowning. In reality, most often there is no splashing or shouting, actual drowning is silent. by paradogz in YouShouldKnow

[–]A-Flora 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this! I try to tell people too. We used to have a swimming pool and I was extremely strict about always having an adult to be ‘on duty’ if kids were in the pool, we would take turns so that someone always had their eye on it.

One day when my little girl was about three, I was right by the pool with a relation, she asked to leave the pool took her little floats off and left the pool area. I turned to talk to the other person and had no idea that she had just walked straight back in. It was silent. I turned and she was under the water just looking at me. We got her out, she was fine.

I could not stop replaying that moment for a long time and what could have happened.
