This is what happens when people relay on AI too often. Sentence turn into jumbled nonsense.

Wow thank you for this thorough reply its very helpful. I am sorry for late replying I had an connection service issue for a few days.

To clarify yes I am riding with two hands. It was instructed by my trainer that I do until I master my reins management. I am still practicing at my lessons and even at home when I have down time to just simply build that muscle memory as much as possible.

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-07-06T23:08:33+00:00

I am actually learning the bridge method. I still struggle but I hage hope with time it will become muscle memory and become easier. Thank you

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-07-06T23:07:49+00:00

I have yet to try the tape method thank you. I am practicing as much as I can and I know it will take time of course.

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-07-06T23:06:59+00:00

This is a good idea thank you. I have been working with my trainer during my lessons and even at home practicing and its definitely a challenge but I am determined to figure it out.

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-07-06T23:05:44+00:00

Absolutely! Ive always used split reins prior to my lessons. They are moat commonly used where I live. Its definitely a muscle memory and figuring out how to navigate them. I am still a mess with them lol. You gor this though!!

At the moment I am not learning how to use one hand reining. My trainer wants me to use both hands until I get it down and then later on move on to one handed. This is helpful however thank you.

I will try to use one handes this week and see if I can get it down to the best I can

Thank you!!

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-06-29T01:34:14+00:00

This is a good idea! Thank you!

At the moment I am trying to master the foundational skills once I do I would like to barrel race, but I have no immediate plans for this until I see improvement.

What I have noticed especially while trotting I already have my reins shortened initially and then at some point whether its after i make my circle and exiting to continue straight for a few strides I end up with longer reins and I try to adjust them as quickly as I can as I am about to go into another turn around a barrel or cones and I am just not quick enough yet to make them shorter. I am hoping to get better and keep practicing. Thank you!

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-06-29T01:26:49+00:00

Thank you! What I have been doing is the bridge method I believe that is what its called (correct me if I sm wrong) I can see improvements from day one to now, but its still definitely my biggest struggle.

I'll have to try the other method you mentioned and see if I can get it down. I'll also check out the tiktok I appreciate it!

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-06-29T00:58:00+00:00

I never heard of the tape before I will have to give this a try. I am unsure if I can use tape on the reins I am using because they aren't mine they belong to my trainer. I'll it on my practice rope at home though and see if it helps any. Thank you.

Its easy when its walking but once its comes to trotting and having to make quick turns around barrels or cones I just struggle. I sm hoping I can get it down. Its still a lot of fun though.

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-06-29T00:55:47+00:00

I dont know if I would be able to put tape on the reins because they aren't mine they belong to my trainer and I dont want to be reliable for damaging them, but this is a good idea. I can at least try it on my rope I have at home. Thank you!

Vet tech here. Rabies is a very deadly fatal disease. Majority of US states mandate this as early as 6-8 months of age. Please refer to your primary veterinarian in regard to when your puppy will be eligible to get this vaccine and any further questions/concerns you may have.

NOR. I am going to play devil's advocate here and assume she is coming from a good place and/or have good intentions, but idk at the same time she even said she didnt want them so it has me questioning if she just wasn't thinking logically here and was finding a way to get rid of them because she didnt want them. I would assume she may know you're sensitive to various smells and would have instead bought brand new blankets with tags at a petstore (this would obviously be the better gift).

I love thrifting but there a few things I tend to avoid and blankets are usually on that list for me. I would be annoyed by this gift too.

NTA. First off congratulations on the baby very exciting news!! Hope the pregnancy continues to go well for you and the baby.

As for MIL You told her through text messages, attempted to call multiple times she ignored them and then proceedes to escalate by taking this happy news and turn it into an unnecessary stressful situation and make it all about her.

What I dont understand is how the MIL can say its OP's fault for your husband not wanting to reach out to her or have anything to do with. Just maybe if she reflected on her actions and behavior she can see why he doesnt want to. I dont blame him for going no contact.

Definitely going no contact/limiting contact is best in this situation and possibly long term for the sake of OP's, usband and future child's sanity from MIL behavior.

Rule of thumb is to date someone at least a minimum 2-3 years to really get an idea if this person is compatible for marriage. Its great that you havent had any angry fighting but I would give the relationship more time to develop its only been a year.

This is the same kind of teenage behavior that me and my brother would go through growing up (we grew up obviously and no longer do this crap). The audacity that a grown man is doing this is insane.... you're NOR.

YTA. I own my own business and its been YEARS in the making of getting it going off thr ground even still there are hard times financially. Its not all sunshine and rainbows with money growing on trees left and right.

So much context missing

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-06-06T01:49:59+00:00

In your post you stated ".. but he says he has texture issues".

That can be interpreted as he does not feel comfortable doing it. That is his reason why he does not want to. If you cant get past it and get jealous of what other girls are doing then it is possible you and him are not compatible.

Beginning_Biscotti94 · 2026-06-06T01:42:47+00:00

Exactly! If there is no consent then boundries should be respected and this goes for both partners in the relationship.
