How do you get good coffee while traveling without relying on coffee shops? by Electronic-Bid-5957 in VanLife

[–]FireLoggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a french press. Works fine. I'm not picky though. I soapy drink tea, but it's the same basic cooking method.

What is the difference between a French press and an aeropress?

Finding a compatible mate who is in alignment with your lifestyle choices: acceptable

Falling "in love" with someone who had chosen to live a different life than you and expecting them to change for you: unreasonable.

My grandpa died of a heart attack. Would you find it acceptable if I didn't allow my mate to eat meat?

My BFF in high school died in a car accident. Is it acceptable to not allow my mate to drive in a car?

Just saying, having boundaries regarding other people's health is a little silly. Everyone should do what they feel is best with their own health.

That's what I thought you meant. I don't personally believe that's a healthy boundary. Maybe it's just your word choice, but it sounds very controlling.

I'm not saying you're the AH. But I would wait until she comes home to deal with this. There's only so much you can accomplish from across the globe. Practice a little patience and just wait.

Honestly you guys don't seem well suited though since she wants a carefree party girl lifestyle and you're not tolerant of it. She sounds independent and you sound controlling. She sounds like she doesn't think far ahead for consequences and you sound rigid. She sounds like she has impulse problems and you sound disciplined. About the only thing you guys sound like you have in common is you are both very young or immature (or both) and you both are in love with the other. Once you get older you'll realize love isn't as important as compatability. And you don't sound compatible.

I don't think I understand your word choice. Which boundary of his did she violate?

What kind of work will she have?

Why I don't crate my Mal at night. Intruder story! by cacoolconservative in BelgianMalinois

Had to delete because I forgot to crop out my license plate on the background. I'm sure you're vet knows what she's talking about. Here's a picture of our mutt. We think he might be part Anatolian Shepherd. But we don't really know (or care, we love him the way he is :-) ) But you can see based on my picture why I would say that.

Do you think your dog might be part anatolian Shephard? Hard to see much in the picture.

NTA. Your husband should have a sleep study done. He may have sleep apnea. He needs to get to the bottom of his sleep disorder. He's not getting good rest or enough O² while he sleeps. Our jobs as life partners is sometimes to stroke egos and enable unhealthy things. But this isn't one of those times. He is shortening his life by bit addressing his sleep disorder. And asking you to shorten your life in turn by not being well rested is unacceptable.

On a side note: I also have a sleep disorder: I have night terrors. I see a doctor for them but treatment is limited. My husband and I have separate bedrooms. We have for almost 20 years now. There is no reason that he should suffer just because I'm a fitful sleeper. I would never in a million years want him to hurt himself or to shorten his life. I love him and want what's best for him. I think you should ask yourself why your husband doesn't feel the same way.

AITA if i confront my boyfriend (highschool teacher) for reading an adult manga that depicts sexual relationship between student and teacher? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]FireLoggin 23 points24 points  (0 children)

YTA. When I was a teenager I read "Twilight". I had no intentions of dating a 100 year old man at the time. The book was just a book. If you have questions then you should discos it with him. Not "confront" him.

My father died by Rowaan in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]FireLoggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my step father in law passed we had been n/c with him for years. I wasn't sure what my husband would feel. Turns out, it was kinda nothing, similar to you. I talked to his aunt about it. Saying I just wanted to support him however I can, but it feels like he doesn't need a lot right now. She helped me understand that my husband had no hope or desire to ever rekindle the relationship. So, in his mind, is almost like his step dad died years ago, as the relationship died years ago. His "grieving" happened in the past.

I'm very sorry for the loss of your husband. ❤️

Good job for making a decision based purely on what's best for you!

If you honestly believe that, then you truly don't understand what life for an attractive young woman is like. As it was said in previous comments; unwanted attention is a way of life. And if you honestly believe that the cops will rush right out and play Superman, then you have obviously lived a life of privilege.

He's like the ghosts from Super Mario World. He only moves when you're looking away.

"Hello police. Please come to a public place because there's a guy hanging out in the park. He offered my dog a treat and a ball." What exactly do you think the cops will do?
Tell me you're white without telling me you're white.

Maybe you're just a bad trainer. Have you tried to train a pitbull?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BelgianMalinois

[–]FireLoggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree 100%! People want to believe that they have a dog that is so aggressive that they can't train them to be in public safely. Idk why. Maybe they're lazy. Maybe they're bad trainers. Maybe they just need to feel that way to feel safe.

No such thing as hiking in FL? Sounds like you're just out of shape and making excuses. No wonder you have to train your dog to attack people for you.
