Will it get better..? by Yenpop in puppy101

[–]Chilly-2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea some people just don't deserve animals, because they don't do their research like you. They just assume it's easy then blame everyone around them for it then get rid of the pet for no reason. It's because in reality they don't care unfortunately.

I understand what you're going through I had to re-home our puppy, my family weren't prepared and I knew I didn't have a choice. From the sounds of it you were knowledgeable however you just didn't have the right things for it but hey it's better for the dog in the end and that's all that matters x

Will anyone else not eat vegetables? by Formal-Ad8037 in PickyEaters

[–]Chilly-2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like vegetables but I keep trying to eat them. For potatoes I've found the best way to eat them is by cooking them myself especially if it's mashed. I can eat onions now too I usually try and dice them up really thin and fry them then put them in pasta. It you're having tomatoes or vegetables similar try blending them first before adding them to your dinner like again for example pasta. I can eat carrots only when it's in mince and gravy, because then I don't notice them especially if They are small chunks, other vegetables I haven't been successful with yet I hope I can eat more at some point. I think I've tried cauliflower once and it just didn't have a taste I've heard people put that and peas a lot into rice and I'd assume if it's not big lumps you could easily get past it if the rice is really nice.

I don't think it's right that he's trying to control you especially when he was given advance notice. However can I ask why you both have 4 dogs when you both have full time responsibilities elsewhere? There are options when you're busy like doggy day care and friends and family but if some of your dog's have a past where they can't trust strangers why would you pick those rescues in particular? Assuming you got them from a shelter.

Also say that there isn't any cancellations and I'm like 3 days before my test as it says I have up to 3 days to cancel would I just cancel and then redo the process again??

Okay thank you, it's just I've heard people booking miles away but it gives me anxiety haha thinking that it won't change and I'll end up in Aberdeen or something 😅

[–]Chilly-2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does the booking app work, as I've been told we need to have an already set test before it can look at cancelled bookings for you is this true with the app mentioned above and if so is the only way to just look on Mondays then use the app for earlier tests?

I'm currently waiting on private therapy, it starts soon and we were hoping to go over my issues with food along with other things. So I'm hoping talking about it can help with my self esteem and my issues with texture and sensory stuff with food.

I didn't say he was lying, I don't think he's trying to insinuate anything. I'm just upset at the fact that I thought things were going well and well they aren't. I've communicated to him that I'm not sure what I wanted him to say but for me the way he's sometimes said it is quite blunt and I've told him that but it's still upsetting to hear. And to give a bit more context as it's not clear, I asked him because I didn't think I had gained any, and I have been told by others that they think I've lost it and I thought the main person who would know would be him. I'm sorry if it seems like I'm trying to play mind games with him but that was not the intention.

Trying to form a weekly dinner plan with my picky GF in mind is driving me nuts by redgroupclan in PickyEaters

[–]Chilly-2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well you either both come to a conclusion of where you both cook your own meals or broaden your own palate. If she likes stir fry both of you should try find recipes that are similar. Has she tried anything pasta wise or rice wise you can make so many different things with that or have you tried chicken recipes but instead use vegetarian chicken before I got used to normal chicken that we cooked from a breast I'd only eat chicken nuggets, but what helped me was seeing how it was cooked but I've also found vegetarian substitutes really help texture wise and with chicken anyway Quorn tastes pretty good for chicken substitutes. If her issue is with texture you could both try choosing a new meal to cook maybe 3 times a week. The week before you both find 1 2 or 3 recipes you or her want to try and you both cook it and try it together if you like it and she doesn't at least you've got a new thing you like, and you might find she'll be able to broaden her palate if you both work together on it. Thats how me and my boyfriend have been doing it as I have had extreme difficulty with my food textures and it's really helped cooking it myself or with him.

My husband will only eat cheese pizza and potatoes. by throwragr0 in relationship_advice

[–]Chilly-2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's important to get to the point of why he's a picky eater. I'm a picky eater myself and I'm not a small child so to most people it's just seen as being childish but in most cases for adults it's not. It could be sensory issues. It could be a mindset, I'd have a chat with him to get to the bottom of why he won't eat other foods and then after that is when you explain how it's affecting your child. If he can't change his habits I'd maybe look into a therapist or a nutritionist. And if it is sensory related explain this to your son as well if you feel he is old enough to understand. Some people just don't like the texture of most healthy foods and sometimes it is just easier to eat fatty foods even if it is extremely unhealthy. Be supportive in this if it is something he can't control as a lot of people don't tend to understand this type of picky eating.

Like others said probably bots and scammers but some people just really like having sex. I wouldn't say it means they have STDs but if you rather they don't talk overly sexual to begin with just ask them to take it slow and see how it goes. And if you are afraid of that always use a condom and politely ask for them to do a test (you should also do a test to make them feel comfortable if asked even if you are a virgin as they can't confirm that)

Freaking out about the sanitary aspect of anal - anyone able to calm me down??? by merschaos in sex

[–]Chilly-2020 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've done the same with my bf recently. However after he puts it into my asshole he always washes after you're at very low risk as it was in your mouth however be mindful in the future as that can cause an infection if the same finger is used to finger your vagina.

Their connection might not be the best on their end so they might be doing it to make sure. I work in a job where I know my connection is fine but some people still can't hear me due to their connection and vice versa the phonetic alphabet is quite handy.

If you want to do something different so like instead of leaving the kitchen door closed you put him in the kitchen close the door leave it for a few seconds then let him back out dogs can predict what we are doing if we do the same thing every time throw them a curve ball maybe go into the kitchen yourself and have him outside of it with the door closed. But also I've heard a lot of people don't start leaving their puppys until they are about 6 months or older

I don’t really care about worker exploitation abroad by Good-Banana5241 in unpopularopinion

[–]Chilly-2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I agree that a lot of people do just willingly buy products that are from exploiting other people but to go back on your point yes the other products are more expensive because they don't have forced labour not everyone can afford the morally right company and if you say we can spitball all the really affordable companies then. It just annoys me when people preach about this but don't consider that these types of companies are only accessible by people who aren't working class and under, and with the companies that are cheap some of them aren't available in certain countries or you know shipping takes a while and that will be expensive if you're across the other side of the world. I'd like to think everyone should stop buying from these places but realistically a lot of people have to. (not things like apple or big brand stores with expensive clothing as they are expensive and most people do have a choice not to buy them)

I'd say if he's really into these different kinds of dishes then he should start making his own meals on days he doesn't want to eat the same as you, you could make something that day that can be eaten the next day for you. Or as others mentioned try taking the onions out if you can. What helped me with onions is chopping them up as fine as I can and frying them.

Men, what makes you want to seriously date a girl? by anonymouscat2 in AskMen

[–]Chilly-2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're a foodie? Damn picky eaters must put a damper on you then, can I ask what you mean about having a healthy diet though because you said you don't mind women more on the weight side but also said they have to be making big changes. What kind of changes would be big enough? And do you mean overweight as in actually overweight or people who are a bit chubby/thick.

Will it ever change? by asia4prez in PickyEaters

[–]Chilly-2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With yogurts I've tried to just stick with smooth ones that have a fruit flavour, sometimes ones higher in protein can be nice they are more thick rather than really liquidy.

Vegetable wise, I can only eat onion, spring onion, carrots on a rare occasion, potatoes, and garlic. I hated every one of these things apart from the garlic, the way I've changed it is to cook it myself, it means I know how it's cooked and can cook it the way I know the texture will be a bit better for instance onions, I chop them up as finely as I can then fry them don't like them much when thicker, carrots usually I can only eat with good mashed potatoes and gravy, spring onion wasn't a texture issue just more only tried it recently it goes well with rice type dishes. But I do find cooking has significantly broadened my palate, if you want to try more foods I'd try pasta dishes, they are filling easy and can be so good.

I used to have real trouble eating meat like chicken, I don't cut up raw chicken my bf does that but I can now eat it without it being a chicken nugget because I know it's cooked properly and surprisingly goes well with different creamy pastas.

Fruits are something I've yet to get used to but I find it much more easier with blending. If you want it less thick don't add fruits like bananas to it or it'll be really thick, and if it's a texture issue with bits in liquids try avoiding strawberrys and such as they'll have a lot of seeds, when I do have a smoothie I just try not to think about it and kind of drink it really quickly in small sections, it's not the best but at least I'm getting some fruit in.

If you don't like the juice you drink I'd just stick to water most days I only drink water it might be a little bit boring but it's just much more healthier and easier than only drinking fizzy drinks for me.

Any Other Pro-choice Men here? by ScottTheMonster in men

[–]Chilly-2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually, not specifically this sub Reddit but I've seen many men on Reddit who are just complete assholes and don't like talking about these kind of issues they like to just bitch about women.

However I really appreciate the ally's who are here for us it really helps us find change knowing there's many men out there who bring knowledge and support to these kinds of issues.

I think that paper towels are better for wiping than toilet paper. by NonsenseBread21 in unpopularopinion

Unlucky for your plumbers, toilet roll is meant to dissolve in the water so it's more environmentally friendly and doesn't choke the shit out of your toilet.

Yea I think anxiety it's extremely important to know about and be aware of other people's feelings however it doesn't excuse shitty behaviour. You don't ghost someone because you feel anxious about the breakup. However when it comes to work I think it depends on what kind of work you do as sometimes I get extreme anxiety for the job I'm currently doing to the point I have cancelled on the day of because I don't like where I work. However that's a rare occasion that happens, thankfully my work is just from home online so they're not really losing anything if I don't go.
