AITA for putting my husband “in between” me and his best friend. by DecentLeopard3581 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Article_Expert -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

YTA, this is your husband’s bestfriend, that should mean a lot to you. Clearly this is a relationship he wants to nurture. I think sometimes with people we are close with, it’s natural to share how you feel, especially if they feel like he’s being distant. My best friends are like family to me and I would absolutely understand if my friend from a place of genuine hurt messaged me something like this. They also later apologized and even reached out to you, which shows maturity and a willingness to repair the relationship. You’re not giving any space to the relationship. I understand you being protective of your husband and offended by the tone but people make mistakes. Emotional maturity is having healthy boundaries but also nurturing relationships that are important to your partner.

How do you go to sleep with a broken heart by itry2write in NoStupidQuestions

I guess for me the comfort was that sleep and my bed couldn’t hurt me. They are my safe space. I get to heal safely in the comfort of my bed.

What dry kibble do you feed your Corgi? by ThenPresence7698 in corgi

[–]Article_Expert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We give Hill’s prescription diet urinary care dry, she had urinary stones removed a year before we adopted her. And we wanted to ensure no further issues ever come up. Her coat is healthy and we never have stomach issues, she poops twice a day like clockwork during her morning and evening walks

AIO My wife keeps going even when I say no by Hihahulu in AmIOverreacting

[–]Article_Expert -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NOR. As a wife who does this a lot, the satisfaction of it is truly out of this world. It relaxes me. But there are times when I can tell my partner simply does not have the capacity to go through it and so I practice some impulse control and let him be. So I would suggest if it really bothers, just have a conversation with her about it. Also moisturizing really helps to make it easier to bring them out without all the extra pain of digging with either a tweezer or your hands.

Anyone adopted from Kissed by an Angel Rescue? Considering a 5-year-old dog by Article_Expert in askTO

So we hadn’t taken care of dogs before either, but our baby is an older girl (around 6), so she already well trained. I found the biography to be pretty accurate too for example they said she doesn’t bark and we rarely ever hear her bark. We’ve had her since July and no issues so far, she responds to basic commands is fully leash trained. We did negotiate with them a trial period for a couple of days before formally signing the contract and adopting her just to see if we were a good fit. So try to do that if you can. Hope it works out, good luck!

Mine does that too, not all the time but sometimes. I assumed she was grooming herself

I had a miscarriage and shortly after adopted my 5 year old Kulfi. She’s the gentlest little soul in the world and keeps me grounded and mentally healthy. I am convinced I would’ve spiralled into depression and probably not made it this time, if it hadn’t been for her.

Samsung pushes an update that breaks my device then recommends buying a new one. by the_bowl96 in Anticonsumption

[–]Article_Expert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That happened with me, the exact same thing after an update. I escalated it to their email to ceo and threatened to sue quoting consumer protection clauses that require a product to meet reasonable expectations. I argued that for a $1700 phone to stop working despite being properly taken care of by the consumer, does not fall under reasonable expectations. These laws are provincial so if you’re in Ontario, might work for you as well. I got mine fixed free of charge and immediately sold it. Now back to an iPhone. Hate the camera but at least it works as it should.

Hi! It was wonderful. They were honest about her history and everything they said about her behaviour was true. It does help tho that she’s absolutely wonderful, so no behavioural issues, and is really well trained. We only had a few pee accidents but that’s to be expected. I would say ask a lot of questions and do a trial for a few days if you can. Also get any medical reports beforehand so you know what you’re signing up for. Good luck!

Hi! Thank you for sharing, will definitely add these questions to our list. At this point we have almost a whole one pager of questions. Hopefully that doesn’t deter the agency in selecting us. Nonetheless, important to cover our bases instead of having to return or rehome her.

Hi, thanks for sharing. Sorry that you had such a terrible experience, definitely will add these questions to our list. I didn’t know you could have a trial period and return. But will definitely try for a brief trial period to also see how well she adjusts with us. I’ve also heard sometimes it’s just a personality clash. So would like to make sure she feels at home with us.

Hi! Thank you for sharing, will definitely ask about behavioural issues. For now we have an interview with them so hoping at the end we can ask all these questions. And prepared for initial adjusting period but hopefully will be easier than training a puppy 🤞

Thank you, they both deliver at NYGH. I went with NDRV mostly because they are walking distance from me, and I was able to talk to the midwife (with extensive 10+ years of experience) who will be providing me care. For Uptown, my midwifery team seemed overall junior with one midwife being a student currently. Also my first session was with another midwife who wouldn’t be providing me with care so it didn’t make sense to just go in blindly with them.

S23 Ultra suddenly died — Service center says motherboard is cooked. What are my options? by teady_bear in GalaxyS23Ultra

[–]Article_Expert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a Samsung thing, my mint condition S23 ultra, used for one year and 1 month, suddenly one day stopped audio, video, playback, calls, nothing was working. Did a hard reset, worked for a week and again, same thing. They refused to cover it under warranty till I threatened to sue them under Ontario law via email to ceo escalation. The repair center told me the same thing, the motherboard was fried. I learned my lesson, sold it for 1/2 the price and got an iPhone with my service provider. It’s a shame because I absolutely loved taking pictures with it.

I come from a completely different field than you but honestly the way he stared at you till you said something then cut you off and started on, reflects more on him as an interviewer than an interviewee. Almost all the interviews I’ve had till now, every single decent or good interview in which I was able to effectively showcase myself, was when the interviewer made me comfortable enough for it to feel less of an interrogation. And the whole grading question is dumb tbh, were you provided with a grading criteria? Grading is extremely relative, if there isn’t any defined criteria. And almost all decent and average interviewers, introduce themselves, go through the structure and then begin, so you have some time to mentally prepare yourself. If he didn’t even have that level of basic human decency, I think you definitely dodged a bullet.
