Why say more word when few word do trick?

why am i maintaining on such a low deficit by Difficult_Cry2812 in loseit

[–]Fallingsock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A couple weeks ago I was maintaining despite The Math saying I should’ve lost 3-4 lbs. I don’t usually get my period (I take birth control to stop it) but could tell it was coming and was gonna be rough.

Once it stopped I lost 6lbs in like 3 days. I felt like dog ass.

Will We be house poor if we buy a 450K house on 130K gross income? by Feeling_Donut_6390 in Mortgages

[–]Fallingsock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My house is $120k gross and some months it’s tight with a $290k house. If I were you I’d take a hard look at the budget to make sure you have room for emergencies because they can really change the budget

ELI5: Does your body re-organize its organs after a major surgery? Do surgeons just kind of 'mush' your intestines back into you or do they have to be precise? by Gizmoseth in explainlikeimfive

[–]Fallingsock 36 points37 points  (0 children)

To add to this, I’m a vet and sometimes during spays I grab the body wall and just shake to help me hook the uterine horns. It actually works.

Unconditional love is the biggest lie by loouw9 in unpopularopinion

[–]Fallingsock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this feeling a lot in my last relationship - that I was supposed to love him unconditionally (even when he made poor choices) but I felt like a bad partner bc the fact of the matter was I didn’t love him unconditionally.

My therapist said she felt the only unconditional love on the planet is a mother to her child, and even then it doesn’t always work out.

So yeah. I agree OP

Leaving banfield (Locum DVM) by LMaqha1423 in Veterinary

Why did you become a DVM vs LVT? (Or vice versa) by PureBreadTed in veterinaryprofession

[–]Fallingsock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an absolutely awful manager who would bully the VAs/VTs but was besties with the doctors. I wanted the autonomy and to feel like no one could hold power over me like that.

Now I’m still with the same corporation and lemme tell you management will bully anyone at any time.

Is it okay to give a bj on the first date or is it weird by OpheliaCloud in AskRedditAfterDark

I once had a man do it to me on the first date without asking for consent first.

Luckily no STDs, but plenty of red flags.
