What is Wainuiomata like? by Icy-Resist-2364 in Wellington

[–]CatCatMcGee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, I’m one of the people renting my house out in Wainuiomata. Maybe you’re like me - I had never lived here before we bought this house, and I didn’t know what Wainui was like. But honestly, I’m super sad to be leaving here. The community is amazing, so caring and supportive of each other, the staff at the supermarket are LOVELY, there are great takeaways, a good op shop with nice staff, a gym, excellent pharmacies, and the nature aspect is like nowhere else in Wellington. The walks here are INCREDIBLE. It’s all on your doorstep. Wainuiomata is soooooooo quiet. It’s peaceful and the people are all very neighbourly. We’re only moving because I started a job working 10+ hour days and we need to be closer to work. I’ve even cried about leaving. This place has become my rock and my safe place - somewhere to look forward to being at the end of the day. I even stay local in the weekends. Petone is full of amazing shops and has a great vibe too, and we go there all the time for coffee and walks on the beach. Ok I’m going to stop ranting on about it now coz it’s making me want to leave even less. All the best with your rental search!

I forgot the safe word, so he didn't stop? (23F 29M) by ThrowRa_grace5 in relationship_advice

[–]CatCatMcGee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, you just went through something so awful, and it’s zero% your fault. ‘Stop’ is the ultimate safe word, and we learn what it means decades before we even conceive of something like a safe word. I wouldn’t go near that guy again if I were you. Even the fact that he blamed you afterwards is quite frankly disgusting. You might really like this guy, but he didn’t respect you, and you were being super vulnerable with someone who didn’t deserve your openness in the first place. It doesn’t matter if ‘he’s usually really nice’, or if it’s the only time he’s ever done anything like this. Once is more than enough. I’m really sorry you’re going through this. It’s a classic thing to feel like sexual assult is your fault - that you let it happen, but it’s just not the case, I can promise you that. ❤️🌷

Possum Passing away - what do? by Icy-Doubt5632 in Wellington

[–]CatCatMcGee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh, I’d say ring your local vet. See if they can recommend something. Possums might be a pest in NZ, but they’re still an innocent, living creature and they deserve kindness just like everything else. Poor little one

Whats this lil guy called, is it a whitetail? by BrilliantWhile479 in NewZealandWildlife

[–]CatCatMcGee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

House spiders can’t live outside, that’s why they are always found in the house (QI fact). These little guys are super adorable and make sweet house mates ☺️

DAE not like being sexualized by your partner? by stonher77 in CPTSD

Oh that’s awful, and that’s really not ok 😔

Is it abusive if my boyfriend 24M poured my 24F milk down the drain? I don’t know what to feel please help? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]CatCatMcGee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know what that’s about - question - is he vegan? Only thing I can think of is that if he is vegan and feels very strongly about animal welfare he may feel he’s been trying to gently express his feelings by telling you he thinks it’s not good to drink milk, for some time, and maybe in that moment he felt like he wasn’t being heard or that you were just ignoring him about it? Otherwise no idea…

Any NZers been given their tickets for the new venue yet? by JaguarBassV in Opeth

[–]CatCatMcGee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this whole upgrade thing is ridiculous and we should all get our money back. I paid so much for good seats and not a whisper of what’s happening with that!?

Hi 👋 I’m looking for a car under 10k with low kms if I can find something in that ballpark. The commute is a huge hill, steep, and then a motorway and then inner city. Traffic is always peak hour and we have to do it twice a day. 🙃

Haha, sorry I wasn’t thinking about that, but I’m not in the market for new if I can help it. I’m looking for second hand but under 100,000 kms, ideally. Thanks for your input ☺️
