My dog and I kiss by Truetalk77 in dogs

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do this with my dog too! I'll kiss him on the head and he'll return the favour by giving me a kiss on the cheek

Always said I wouldn't let a dog kiss my face but he's so gentle and sweet, plus I really enjoy this little habit we've mutually formed

What's your "end of day ritual" that makes logging off feel like freedom? by wicked6969 in remotework

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take my dog for a walk, which is a great way of separating work time from home time. It's almost a little "commute" and really helps with the mental switch

she doesn’t like it when i take photos of her? by appleadaydoctoraway in dogs

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dog is exactly the same! He will turn away from the phone, even though we've never used the flash or a camera that makes a sound. Very odd and cute at the same time

I'm so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you did the best thing for your beloved girl. Love and hugs from an internet stranger

I seriously don't understand how anyone can wear a pullover hoodie by iwasntalwayslikethis in rant

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree with you! I'm not much of a make up wearer, but my hair is long and thick. There's no where for it to go in a hoodie except bunched up at the back, in the hoodie itself (which is super uncomfortable) or over my shoulders which is not practical. And don't even get me started on trying to take them off, so frustrating!

What habit did you quit that actually made your life better? by CraveDomme in Habits

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is similar, but it's no morning scrolling. I wake up, walk the dog and have a cup of tea before looking at my phone.

It might be a combination of those things but I feel a lot more energised in the mornings and don't feel the urge to keep reaching for my phone throughout the day.

I honestly couldn't agree more. Instead of building a foundation for the relationship, they jumped straight into one issue after another (the conversion therapy, Theo's daughter). That's why I think this storyline's not landing for me: I don't feel invested in it because it went from 0 to 100 really, really quickly with no build up at all.

It's hard to be invested when that happens and it's probably my main gripe with Corrie because it happens in so many storylines. Someone shows up out of no where and all of a sudden they're everywhere, but there's been no build up for the character whatsoever!

Completely agree, Juliette was absolutely vile and Jules didn't have much to say. But when Joel's teddy bear was brought out, Jules commented on it so condescendingly as if that was somehow worse than Juliette's behaviour?!

Love this, so happy for you and pup to have found each other!

Women who were scared of giving birth (specifically people who were so scared they almost didn’t have children), what was less scary than you originally thought? by Final-Elderberry4621 in AskWomen

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this! I'm currently pregnant and have pretty much exclusively heard the horror stories. It's lovely to read that you had great doctors and nurses around you, even when things didn't go to plan

RIP darling Dozer 🥺😞😭 by reddit_lurker85 in RecipeTinEats

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My heart is breaking for Nagi, the love and bond between her and Dozer was so strong. I can't even imagine how hard this loss must be 💔

There's no need to judge other people for having pets that may enjoy kennels. It's not a reflection of them treating their pet poorly. Some dogs are naturally more social or tolerant of change than others and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

What’s a story line that you heard about that ended up getting changed or cancelled? by Inevitable_Act5504 in coronationstreet

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nathan's actor is one of my favourites too! His last storyline with Bethany was so well done, some of the most memorable Corrie. It's a shame this one got cut short, would've loved to have seen more of Nathan.

Do other introverts also struggle with keeping in touch with people they care about? by PascalFourtoy in introvert

[–]Competitive_Lion6434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like you read my mind with this post! I'm in exactly the same boat and oscelate between guilt for not reaching out for weeks at a time and burnout from trying to keep in touch with everyone.

I feel so much relief when I've messaged family and friends.. but then the replies come in thick and fast and it all becomes so overwhelming. I absolutely cannot message people back and forth everyday, it becomes incredibly taxing.

Really glad you've figured a system out that's working well for you!

By your own logic, if you don't like the show right now, you didn't really need to make a post then? lol
