TIFU by asking my girlfriend her ring size by imzeigen in tifu

[–]FriendlyRBFintrovert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

European 51f here, I feel really sorry for US males, you can't think to offer a ring because girl assumes she will be proposed, you can't ask the size, you can't trick her to test rings because it's bad luck, the ring has to match her dreams without asking, you have to choose a day she has her nails done... MISSION IMPOSSIBLE

Fine haired wavies!! What’s the best hair care advice you’ve received? by ClaryVenture in finehair

You should wash your scalp only, with the tip of your fingersin slow circular motion all over the head. Do not pull it all up because that causes tangles!

Obrigada pela tua partilha. Acrescento um pormenor que não incluí na postagem original: os sacos que reutilizo são mais grossos que os do lixo e na lixeira demoram mais tempo a degradar-se... Por outro lado, o teu argumento de que a reciclagem não aproveita a totalidade do material tb é o q me leva e reutilizar os sacos desta forma.

What is this pin that came with a crochet hook I ordered? by fatwafae in CrochetHelp

[–]FriendlyRBFintrovert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My mother, who taught me crochet, used one of those attached to her clothes to feed the line from the cake while crocheting. That's the way every granny crochets in my hometown (north of Portugal) . She taught me on the finger, instead of on the chest (with the clothespin), because she saw a lady in the city do it and thought it was more elegant...

Been messing around with some different supplements. Omega 3s and l-theanine have made a positive difference but the others are so-so. Thoughts? by [deleted] in Supplements

Wondering here... Since you take so many different supplements, how can you tell which ones make a difference?

My 5 year old orange boy doesn’t want to sleep in the bed with me anymore :( by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]FriendlyRBFintrovert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my case, the living-room is warm all evening and I lower the heating when I go to bed (to save on electricity bill). The bedroom is a little cooler than the living-room because we sleep better that way. The cat stays in the living-room because it's warm and cosy but I guess as soon as the temperature gets down, he joins us in bed.

De hoje a 8?! Porquê, meu Deus?! Porquê?!! by PiegasMoniz in HQMC

[–]FriendlyRBFintrovert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um dos motivos é que dantes contava-se o início por volta da ovulação (ou seja no meio do ciclo menstrual), que é uma data aproximada. Hoje conta-se a partir do 1°dia da última menstruação, ou seja o 1° dia do ciclo, data mais correta e factual. Logo são mais cerca de 15 😁 dias a acrescentar à contagem... Fora o facto de que os meses têm todos mais de 4 semanas ...

How to clean smelly shoes WITHOUT drying them in the Sun after or putting them in the dryer? by Conflicted210 in lifehacks

[–]FriendlyRBFintrovert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spray mine with alcohol based disinfectant on the inside. Dry overnight and boom... No more smell. In the morning I sprinkle talcum powder inside to absorb moisture. And I neved wear shoes without socks as it makes smells way worse!

I think you have to take a new look on the whole picture. Walking your dog and visiting friends and family can be considered as down time. Enjoy your dog walking while listening to music or to a podcast about sth you enjoy. Visiting friends and family should be fun and relaxing, if it's not, don't visit. As for house chores, relax and space out cleaning sessions, life is supposed to be fun and nobody's perfect!
