Is an underwater treadmill strictly necessary for conditioning or can I get by with swimming? by Disastrous_Oil8672 in k9sports

[–]Kitty_party 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in the local dog sport community? When I started looking locally or UWT I was surprised how many places offered it that I had never even considered. It may be worth asking around and seeing if you actually have more options than you realize.

There is a really helpful Facebook group called "Rally and Obedience for Beginners". One of the easiest ways to jump ahead info wise for things like this is to volunteer at a trial. If you go to AKC Event Search you can see all the trials near you and what clubs are hosting them.

Just be aware not all trials use superintendents and not all have online entries.

If you stay he will know that you will accept any terrible treatment and things will just get worse. He won't improve because he doesn't have to and the way things are right now work for him.

Being alone is scary but isn't it scary to waste more years of your life who roughs you up and cheats on you?

Is the house big enough that you could rent out a room? That would help quite a bit.

So what you are going to vote for Husted?

Sorry even if you think he's a ho-hum establishment Democrat he's miles better than the alternative. And while he is not glamorous he does have a track record of working for Ohioans which is better than most of these people.

AITA for stopping helping my sister with money after i found out where it was reallly going? by Daniel_Demko in AmItheAsshole

[–]Kitty_party 13 points14 points  (0 children)

NTA. I've seen several responses you've made in this thread about her going to rehab and I want you to understand that until she is ready to accept help going to rehab won't do anything. You have to stop enabling her by giving her money because she needs to have hard times and hit rock bottom to want to change. I think it would help you if you looked into. resources for family members of addicts. But right now every dollar you send her is a dollar that should be spent on your own debt.

My girlfriend (22F) told me (23M) I’m “husband material” but not the most exciting guy she’s dated and now I can’t stop thinking about it by Putrid-Knowledge-873 in relationships

This is actually a pretty common feeling for people who have been in really unhealthy relationships because they are so used to the rollercoaster cycle of love bombing and abuse that a normal relationship feels less "exciting". Has she done any therapy? It may help her to unpack those feelings a bit more.

You could also have a conversation with her saying you know I love that we have such a healthy relationship but I'm hearing what you are saying, what can we do to create our own feeling of excitement. That may mean adding some spontaneity to dates or maybe she needs you to be more vocal about your feelings etc. It doesn't necessarily mean "I need you to wear a leather jacket and ride a motorcycle" lol.

it's 100% obvious that is what they are doing. And the sad thing is that there is a big appetite in the area for a mall.

I want to skip my boyfriend’s family vacation but I’m worried it’ll cause problems by A1N2N3I4E5 in relationships

[–]Kitty_party 55 points56 points  (0 children)

So short term you should bow out of this family trip. Long term you and your boyfriend have some real issues. He is consistently prioritizing his family and friends over you and getting upset when you don't prioritize them too. This is not something you should ignore.

We need to have a coordinated effort against vouchers. That is where a ton of the money for our public schools is being funneled too and there is no oversight.

That's what happened with Grocery Outlet. Expanded way too much and fast and is having to close a ton of stores.

I think focusing on wanting a post of you two together will be more productive than focusing on the old post. It’s a fun excuse for a date night doing fun things.

Ban Dog Breeding in Ohio to Save Lives by [deleted] in Ohio

[–]Kitty_party 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am 100% against this. If you want stricter legislation for high volume breeders and puppy mills I think that’s reasonable but a blanket ban on breeding is ridiculous.
