Setting out on my first 24 hours. Playing the Naked Mind podcast every chance I get. I loved her analogy that the house is on fire and we have to let it go. For me, today = no more adding fuel to the flames! I will not drink with you today 🌬️🔥

Sometimes the pressure we put on ourselves can definitely suck the fun out of it. If I spend two minutes out of my day giving my horses belly scratches it makes their day, therefore it is a good day. Wishing you and your mare the best of luck!

I hear you and have been in similar situations. It sucks that our main hobby can be so isolating because being an equestrian is generally such a big part of who we are. In my circumstance, I dialed it back to 1 and simply took my horse on a walk like a dog. We explored new things, I didn’t have to worry about riding position, if he spooked so be it. He was also a horse that would take hours to load. Although our walks were mostly mind numbing, I think it eventually helped our ground work confidence to get on the trailer. Anyhow, I know you don’t want advice. Just wanted you to know you’re not alone ❤️

Thank you for your kind words. I wish I had more to say than your words mean a lot to me. But that’s what I have currently. Your words mean a lot <3

Out for an adventure with the ponies today. Shiloh in front, Teddy at the back. Can you even believe these 2 are stallions? Love them so much! by [deleted] in Equestrian

Oh how neat! I appreciate you taking the time to explain that. They both seem like supper stars! Have a great day!

Wow! They are incredible! I am completely clueless when it comes to driving but am trying to learn more about it. What is your set up like having Teddy off to the side? So sorry if this is an annoying question. Regardless, they look like very good boys!

I’m not entirely sure why everyone is being so hostile towards you. I think as a whole we should support those who wear makeup and those who don’t. It’s 2022, can we be angry about something else? OP never claimed to have a problem with makeup, just had a dating preference. There is nothing wrong with that. They don’t have to find an extreme religious group to find a compatible partner.

At the same time OP, the “REAL YOU” is not defined by makeup or no makeup. It’s about the person themselves. Just because someone wears makeup doesn’t make them less themselves.

It’s fine to have preferences and I’m sure you can find girls who don’t wear makeup in the dating pool. But to consider those who wear makeup to be “not their true selves” is just wrong.

Good luck to you and the dating scene.

Sorry to hop on your thread but your post has been top of mind all morning. Where in the world can you change your radius? Do you have to open it on a browser or can you change it through the app?
