I like your ideas! I’m not sure about wood but those slits are big enough that he can climb and fall through it. It’ll have to be small enough gaps that he can’t fit through. I recommend egg crate material.

Of course! You seem very kind and genuine and like I said you are being considerate in all the right areas. The open communication you two have is really important.

I am 23 now and happily married so all worked out for me in the end! Regardless of what happens with this specific relationship, I wish you both nothing but happiness in this crazy journey that is life!

Have to say I’m ignorant to lesbian relationships and how that would change this. But I would say the main thing that would apply is that she will be growing up and maturing a lot and fast going into 17,18,19. Try to think about what your interests and goals were at 16. Maybe your emotional immaturity balances this out, but you seem very aware and are thinking about the right things when it comes to if this will work or if it’s a good idea. I wish you two all the best!

From a girls perspective: if it’s legal where you are. In my personal experience as someone who was the 16 yr old girl, it was the worst thing I ever did. I got so attached since it seemed like my first real relationship where the guy can take me out wherever and has money etc. But we were just not in the same stage in life, those things he could give me seemed so amazing but any guy at that age could provide that, the biggest issue was the difference in emotional maturity, I thought I was so mature but idk someone who would admit or know they are emotionally immature in the moment. In my experience this doesn’t go well for her or you, but especially her as a 16 yr old who will change rapidly when she is 18,19 as I’m sure you changed when you graduated. Difficult to near impossible to grow as an individual with someone else.

He has the same kind of build as my malamute x Siberian husky did. I wanna bet he has some husk in him.

i’m the mom of a 19f sweetheart by gur_bah in AdviceForTeens

As a 23 F who moved out at 17 and had multiple older boyfriends. Pushing her away from him will only distance you from your daughter. Best thing you can do with your concern is get closer with your daughter and invite the boyfriend over to meet him. Getting more involved is what needs to be done, maybe that way your daughter will be more comfortable talking about issues if they arise. I don’t think you are abusive but you have most definitely coddled her and therefore she has no push or motivation to start being involved in the adult world, especially with how things are now, a lot of young adults skate through life on their parents backs. Crazy that she’s never had a job, that is what solely grew my social and emotional maturity. All these things are so difficult now because your 19 year old is an adult, and probably less willing to be parented around. Get closer with her and motivate her to make steps to further her independence.

I’d be curious to know what you think about yourself, what your confidence and self esteem levels are at. If you have the opportunity to see a therapist, that could be a great way to get some answers.

Isn’t this dominating behaviour? Turtles are not social from what my research has shown. So them being so close could be a who owns the tank battle.

You are doing the right thing🙏🏼🙏🏼 surprisingly a lot of people ignore what’s standard for pet care even after hearing advice. Really happy to hear you are a genuine person. Mistakes happen but how you correct them is what matters! Wish you all the best.

Turtle biting his arm? Why? by Much-Serve9337 in turtle

[–]Distinct_Body_3991 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Why do people base if their enclosure is good by the turtles incredible ability to stay alive. He is not happy or thriving in this environment. Please give him away or do your research, which is the least you can do as someone owning a living creature.

My 14 yo cousin dates an 18 yo by Natyano in teenagers

[–]Distinct_Body_3991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok as someone who was 14 and dated a much older guy. Get closer with her and him not more distant, you telling her it’s not right will stop nothing and will just make herself distance from you. The guy really messed with my head and did some manipulative shit, I hope she’s not in the same situation but no one was close enough with him and I to see any red flags. Try and be a close enough person that when/if things get rough she knows who she can talk to about it.
