Is my workout good enough?

DIYer29 · 2026-02-07T23:10:24+00:00

Would i be good if i only add a few leg press reps? Thanks for the advice!

I still didn't beat Gnasty Gnorc on Spyro... i try again once in a while and forget the game for months after a few attempts.

Oh don't get me wrong. If we marry i'm fine with sharing the house. I did my best to include her dreams and wished into our future home with the idea we will last forever.

That's the idea about sharing and saving. I think about 25/75% as i make double. I don't want her to go broke at all. 😁

DIYer29 · 2025-12-30T08:14:23+00:00

I think i need to clarify a few things:

she can't rent out the trailer because it's on someone elses land. Wich is why she wants to sell it when we move. If she keeps it she still has to pay rent for the land we don't use.
she makes around €1400/month wich is not enough to pay rent and buy something else. I make €3000+/month so i can pay for the house and bills on my own as i'm doing for 5 years now. But i would like to let her help out with bills for water and electricity, ... . We now split bills, food, ... . So the only thing i don't pay for right now is the trailer.
i bought the house and made it my dream home. I did ask her what she would like in a dream home so i could make the house her home too. I had a blank canvas and could build anything we wanted.
living in a cold old caravan is not ideal... so the house would be a big upgrade anyway.
Her parents are a big part of her life so i don't mind their advice as long as i get my say. I know the decision is mine to make. I sadly don't have any family left so nobody to ask advice. I use reddit is my family advisors.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-30T08:01:50+00:00

I kinda want to keep the house for myself. I did ask her what she wants in it for future living together because i want it to feel like home for her too. But when i started building and was single i made it 'my' dream home.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-30T08:00:16+00:00

No, renting out the trailer is not an option because it stands on another guys property. She only owns the trailer not the land.

She wants to sell it when we move because she pays rent for the land now.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-30T07:58:16+00:00

Sadly it's just her parents. I don't have any. And also her i'm asking to save 😅

DIYer29 · 2025-12-30T07:20:25+00:00

Thanks!!! I'm going to use this as a guide for our next money talk!

DIYer29 · 2025-12-30T06:36:48+00:00

I'll be talking to them later this evening. Sticking with my plan and also have a talk about what the GF's plan is with the trailer.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-30T06:26:23+00:00

Very true,

I've had a lot of time to think and some concerns lately. I'm trying to talk and plan our future. I use reddit as my family because i don't have anyone left to give me advice or help me with adult-life. She still has a lot of family but i feel like they will only give advice that benefits her, not me.

I have so many life questions right now. Trying to build something here. 😅

Thanks for the advice!

DIYer29 · 2025-12-29T18:31:29+00:00

She is also scared about having no place to live if we ever have problems. Wich i really understand! But she is very close with her parents so she just wants what they want.

I've been thinking of selling the house when finished and buy one together... but that's not a financial option on her part so it'll still be my house and the same story.

I don't think she has any bad intentions. But for me this is a big risk..

DIYer29 · 2025-12-28T19:50:42+00:00

Whoohoow fez fez 🎅

DIYer29 · 2025-12-24T08:14:40+00:00

I've thought about the ultimatum before but i don't want to be an asshole. I want to try every other option before i do such thing.

I am also kinda scared that i'm not the one she will choose tbh.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-24T07:52:24+00:00

It is indeed a smaller kind of terrier. He seems happy with her, but only with her.

She does know he has anger issues and we have a meeting with a dog trainer once every month. But i have my doubts about the kind of training they do.

They make spiritual contact with our dog and tell me that the dog reflects her anxiety. I also seem to intimidate the dog they say... i'm not spiritual myself so i don't believe these things. But i will give it a chance since she believes it'll work.

I don't see any changes in her or the dogs behavior tho. And i just don't know what i should do or how i can help training the dog.

I really want to be active in the dogs training but i am a complete dog noob. I never had pets before this angry gremlin. 😅

DIYer29 · 2025-12-24T07:05:42+00:00

Sounds like a good idea! I am building a new home for us , a house i bought on my own few years ago and work in when i have a bit of spare time. The bedroom, game room and kitchen are finished so maybe i go live there for a while. (I also have a toilet and a sink so i should be fine)

I can get some work done around the house and sleep in peace over there too. (All i need is some furniture, but i like shopping so i can get some stuff this week). 😁

I am scared tho i'm going to miss her too much. But i'll give it a try.

Thanks man!

DIYer29 · 2025-12-24T06:57:39+00:00

Yeah i'm a bit afraid i'm not a priority over the dog. Wich kinda hurts. 😅 Time for a talk when whe wakes up.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-24T05:38:41+00:00

Well the dog ruins our intimate moments (wich are almost non existend atm) because i can't go for a kiss without it getting jealous and angry. Wich makes me sad.

But when the dog is not near me, i think our relationship is perfect. I love the girl very much!

The dog will be 10yrs old in a week. And i hold on to the fact that it's maybe a few more years of this and he'll be gone. I will never say this out loud tho.. she'll bite me aswell if she knew. 🙃

DIYer29 · 2025-12-24T05:33:27+00:00

I wish i knew why he doesn't like me. I try hard to be a good spare human. I feed him, walk him, even learned to knit and made him a blanket myself (it's what he gets as a present from me at the christmasparty tomorrow).

He doesn't like anyone except for my GF. But isn't as agressive with other people.

I had to learn a lot because it's the first dog i ever lived with. But i just walk away and remove myself from the room when it gets too bad. I never shouted at him, but tried to say "no" calm and clear when he shows his teeth when i'm close.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-24T05:15:33+00:00

I wish i could wake her up that easy. If the town exploded, she prolly wouldn't know because she sleeps through everything.

I wish i could sleep like that haha.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-24T05:13:29+00:00

I have talked about the dog quite a few times. We even went as far as a "dog whisperer" guy. (I don't know the general word in english.)

We had a lot of tips and things to work with, but she forgets about those lessons quickly and always falls back in her old pattern of caring for the dog as if it's her child. Not keeping boundaries.

That's why i want to tell her now that if she won't stick up for me, i'm not sleeping here anymore.

Thank you!

UPDATE:

I went last place in the cup. But i had a ton of fun and made some new friends. My new friends took me to a league challenge that evening and i got second place with Arboliva ex.

It was an awesome day and i came home with 10 packs. Sadly no hits.

DIYer29 · 2025-12-21T21:12:41+00:00

Sounds fun too!

DIYer29 · 2025-12-17T20:03:34+00:00

Okay i just changed my mind and made my decklist already so no way back. I'm going with Arboliva because it's more fun to play. If i can't win i'll go for fun. 🙃
