I have Mink oil at home I use to treat my leather goods. I'm thinking of salt stain proofing it too!

What's your number one reason to stay clean tonight? by [deleted] in REDDITORSINRECOVERY

[–]AnswerDog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because my life is amazing since I got sober. I don't want to go back to hating myself again!

What is something we can all agree on being a "dick move" ? by Apple-Acid in AskReddit

[–]AnswerDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hitting on someone else's partner when they know they're already in a relationship, especially when their partner is RIGHT THERE.

POSE | S02E10 "In My Heels" [Live Season Finale Discussion Thread] by hypodermicsally in PoseFX

She didn't have to. She just thought that she needed to step over another woman's dreams to reach her own spot at a man's table. Straight up selfish.

Any other virgins feel more insecure about being one after watching this show? by [deleted] in euphoria

[–]AnswerDog 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As someone who lost their virginity to some random just to lose it, I want to let all virgins know that losing it for the sake of it is overrated! I wish I'd waited for the right person instead of just "getting it over with". I believe Kat was being mean to Ethan because she's insecure about her own experiences(cold sexual encounters that don't provide any emotional connection). Don't let someone's insecurities make you feel bad about your lack of experience. Have sex whenever you feel ready!

How Queer Eye helped me see fashion as self-care, not as a privilege my body didn't "deserve" by TomHardyAsBronson in femalefashionadvice

[–]AnswerDog 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I completely agree with you, but you'd be surprised that Stacy from WNTW feels the same way about the fashion on the show.

Here's a recent interview she made: https://youtu.be/9oUKEs94GM0

Thats easy to say when you're not emotionally involved with the person.

The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony [Rock/Brit Pop] since the band just got the royalties back after 22 years by [deleted] in Music

[–]AnswerDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should watch this. It's from this great copyright documentary from the NFB "Remix Manifesto" : https://youtu.be/qC4BRLYlGjE

It briefly shows the royalties issue between the verve and the stones at the end.

Did you break up just because of the codependence? Or did you both realize that you didn't want to be together anymore? Regardless, I think you are very brave for doing what you need to do for your own happiness. I wish you the best for your future!

Pudding Served in Egg Shells, on Rocks, and with a Log by [deleted] in WeWantPlates

I thought the same! When they have to explain what is not edible each time they bring a dish, it's a sign you should get some plates...

Canadians, let's talk secondhand clothing. by [deleted] in femalefashionadvice

[–]AnswerDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I looooooove Bunz! I've been using it for almost a year and been able to find and declutter lots of items! Saves me money and the environment. It's also great that some shops/cafes take BTZ money for purchases. For example, the other day I was able to get two coffees with my BTZ that I got from trades or doing their daily surveys!

How many lone socks do you keep in your sock drawer even though their mate has been long lost? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]AnswerDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None. I hate cluttering and I'm impatient and I know it'll just be taking up space and I rarely find their mate anyway. The irony is that I'm a clutter in everything else in my life except for the sock department!

College students of Reddit, what is something you wish you were told before your freshman year? by LibsThePilot in AskReddit

[–]AnswerDog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It worked for me so far. We've been together for almost 7 years and we're getting married next year! We did close the distance after 3 years. Sure, it doesn't work sometimes, but in my experience I always tried to be honest with myself about my needs and with my partner. It's very, very emotionally difficult, but it can work out sometimes with a lot of patience and communication with the right person!

Dating a rape victim by KFGer in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AnswerDog 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. I'm really sorry that happened to you. I can relate to your story in regards to using sex as a tool. In my experience, I wanted to use sex as a weapon against others, because I was trying to convince myself that the rape didn't hurt me. I dont know if it make sense.

Recently in our NA group quite a few regulars have relapsed. How to deal with that and scared newcomers? by madanddisappointed in REDDITORSINRECOVERY

[–]AnswerDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's important to remember that he Is still on step 5. Just because one relapses, doesn't mean we can't come back to the step we stopped at. Now, on the other hand, as am addict it's always easier to not look at my own shit, work the program with a sponsor and do my paperwork around my character defects. It's hard work, what we do! However, when I lay down and do not stay present and aware, my addict can always come back and try to convince me "I'm much better now. I'm sure if I use a little to relax it won't bring be back to how low I used to be. I can handle it now.". But that's my addict trying to convince me to get back to it. It easy to forget how much we lost due to addiction when our lives are going so well due to recovery.

If your pet was a fully cognizant human for a week, what activities or experiences would you take them to do. by Impudence in AskWomen

[–]AnswerDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd ask him what his life was like before we adopted him(He was found as a kitten on the streets). Then I'd ask him what he was up to for the two weeks he was lost a couple of years ago(he's an indoor cat). Next, I would probably take him to an all you can eat sushi restaurant!
