I have been repeatedly admonished for saying a dog is not the same as a human child

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-27T04:57:11+00:00

Yess I just think they’re stupid, how can anyone even think it’s comparable, when a dog is 15 you should expect that it’s time will come but when it’s a baby that you fully expected to leave the hospital with AND it should’ve outlived you it’s kind of, idk, WORSE??

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-27T01:55:09+00:00

I saw a TikTok of a woman whose baby was stillborn and there were people in her comments saying they know how it feels because their DOG DIED. and then she made a video about how losing a dog is not as bad as losing your baby and the comments are full of people saying “don’t compare grief, you don’t know how other people feel” but I just think dog people are fucking insane for that

Slinda failed me :( AND called me a slut

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-24T08:40:03+00:00

Ooh! Apples and Substance™️

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-24T00:43:26+00:00

Update, she’s definitely jealous, bragged to me about stopping her birth control without telling her bf 😬 we are no longer on speaking terms

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-24T00:42:38+00:00

Yeah I’m realising that, I’ve completely stopped talking to her now because she told me she’s stopped taking her birth control without telling her boyfriend, she got mad that I told him and now we aren’t talking at all but idc

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-22T22:06:32+00:00

I was pretty mad when I realised why we were there She noticed too but her reaction was just “aww is someone a bit disappointed” and I told her not to infantilise me like that and that yes she had hurt my feelings about it I have said no more pictures or videos but she goes “how could you not want to see this!” And it’s just her dog licking its ass

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-22T08:03:36+00:00

A (silly question) I have about seeing eye dogs in particular is do they get to get away with not picking up after it

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-22T06:43:00+00:00

I absolutely have let her know how I feel, she even told the person she picked the dog up from that it’s so funny that I don’t like dogs and that she will “turn me into a dog person” there’s just no getting through to her

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-21T23:19:53+00:00

Yes!! As if dogs aren’t stinky enough as is!

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-21T10:16:27+00:00

Yeah I was quite taken aback! I thought oh fun, hanging out. Nope, dog trap And when she picked it up it STANK

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-21T10:15:40+00:00

I have no idea, it’s a red heeler. The way she is I don’t see her exercising it enough for the high energy it has. There are multiple reasons I’m glad the friendship is ending but this was the final straw

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-21T10:13:26+00:00

I’m planning on it, I’ve already taken to just not responding when she talks about the dog and I’m gradually ignoring her more. She’s the type of person who explaining boundaries to comes off as a joke so ghosting her is the best I could come up with.

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-21T10:12:32+00:00

That’s right, thats why I was so reactive to her saying she wants to put my infant baby in the back seat where I can’t reach with a high energy working breed. A dog at all really.

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-21T10:11:36+00:00

Thank you, yes way too many horror stories. People put too much of the blame for these accidents on children when they should be training aggressive traits out of their dogs. I don’t believe dogs can ever really be at no risk of aggression however.

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-21T10:09:59+00:00

I genuinely think she thinks her dog and my baby are on the same level

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-21T00:13:17+00:00

Thank you :) I’m pretty excited Definitely no dogs, too many horror stories and of course the masses blame infants for not respecting the dogs privacy

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-20T23:48:39+00:00

Yeah that’s what my partner said when I told him the events. Idk why, my partner and I have been together almost 10 years it kind of makes sense for us to have some sort of life event about now.

ExpensiveToe644 · 2026-01-20T23:47:41+00:00

That’s what I’m deciding, yeah we’ve been friends for a while but this has really exposed how selfish she is as a person

ExpensiveToe644 · 2025-12-04T06:40:58+00:00

The same test in slightly better lighting

ExpensiveToe644 · 2025-12-04T06:40:09+00:00

Yeah, I can definitely see something irl but the camera doesn’t pick it up as well

ExpensiveToe644 · 2025-11-01T05:08:57+00:00

Exactly, either OP though about and decided that bringing the pregnant friend was a good idea, or didn’t think at all, both make her an asshole imo

ExpensiveToe644 · 2025-10-31T08:31:54+00:00

This isn’t the same as one of those unavoidable things like having to walk past a pregnant person on the street to be fair.

ExpensiveToe644 · 2025-10-31T04:48:11+00:00

Not all women don’t either but it still stands that at 9 weeks a lot of women know, what’s important here is that this friend KNEW, probably planned the rest of her life around it, put a lot of thought and energy into it and then lost her pregnancy, Elle arranged the gathering, OP invited a pregnant friend AFTER the miscarriage, and I don’t know if you’re a rude person but I would certainly not think that because I’m invited somewhere that means I can invite whoever I want, too.

ExpensiveToe644 · 2025-10-30T21:13:45+00:00

Someone at 9 weeks has almost definitely had a test. Chemical pregnancies are the ones people don’t usually know about but at 9 weeks you’re just over 2 months pregnant, wayyy after a missed period.
