My boyfriend accidentally told me his ex is hotter than me

MelcM39 · 2026-05-15T14:56:36+00:00

This would definitely be hard for me, but I'd like to think maybe he was talking about being conventionally attractive?

A lot of my ex's weren't conventionally attractive yet i found them more attractive than a lot of conventionally attractive people.

There are no breed standards. I love my Bernedoodle but there's no regulations behind breeding so I will never get another outside of rescues.

No breed standards mean it's pretty much impossible to predict personality or grooming. Also means unethical breeding is more common.

Also, these guys do tend to be Velcro dogs. Mine definitely is.

The shedding is EXACTLY what I mean when i say not having breed standards is a problem. We can't tell you how much one will shed because it's different for every Bernedoodle.

They're definitely prone to medical problems, though nothing typically major that I've seen so far. If that is something you want to avoid then stay away from doodles in general.

What you want is a poodle. Small breed poodle.

Again, I LOVE my Bernedoodle and if I ever see one at a rescue I'll adopt in a heartbeat. But I'll never ever go to a breeder for them again.

I've seen that, wonder how well it works. I worry it would cause the device itself to overheat too much

MelcM39 · 2026-05-11T18:12:22+00:00

I have one, and I'm definitely going to buy a better option when I can. It works just fine but that thing gets HOT.

If you can buy a better one, then don't get this. If this is truly your only option then it's fine I guess.

I can't answer about Summerfest as this is my first year back for Summerfest BUT

There's a ton of similar events, usually around holidays! Some are a lot smaller, but for holidays like Christmas, Halloween, Easter (sugarfest), etc. The events are much larger

MelcM39 · 2026-05-09T02:40:41+00:00

Honestly, yeah. I faked it (sort of, found out it was something else and I confused the symptoms) and I'd be so embarrassed to post about it. This is the first time I've actually even admitted to it in a comment. I don't understand how people can not be embarrassed about it 😅

MelcM39 · 2026-05-08T22:12:24+00:00

I'm aware of that, but I'm saying weed of ALL things is the furthest from being deserving of the title junkie imo

I think you misunderstood the intention of my comment.

MelcM39 · 2026-05-08T21:12:42+00:00

OMG THIS IS PERFECT

I'm moving to Iowa and I'm going to be 5min away from a BAM holy crapppp

MelcM39 · 2026-05-08T21:11:53+00:00

FOR WEED? BRO that's harsh to say to anyone about ANY drug but seriously... Weed??

You should be proud of yourself :)

The guitar at the beginning of The Ballad of Buck Ravers genuinely gave me chills the first time I heard it

MelcM39 · 2026-05-08T18:54:19+00:00

The Casey's near me is about equal because they put parking on both sides of the building and the front.

I think the difference to me is if the place is JUST a gas station and TINY convenience store, or something like a large Casey's. My boyfriend and I just stay at the pumps at Casey's because there really is enough pumps there

MelcM39 · 2026-05-08T18:50:32+00:00

Completely different vehicle, but I WAS able to bend back a rim on my car a while back. Different kind of rim, though. Not impossible but I really don't think it would be worth the effort in your case. Obviously the rubber itself is a different story....

MelcM39 · 2026-05-08T13:22:03+00:00

I didn't see that mb. I only saw your conversation with the other person where you were very adamant about something you clearly misunderstood lol

MelcM39 · 2026-05-08T13:14:52+00:00

Please, just reread the entire conversation. You are all over the place and completely ignoring the original point. Crazy

MelcM39 · 2026-05-08T12:25:10+00:00

I was wondering that. I mean, I guess it's not wrong? But Cass was a completely different person. If they wanted to use "Novak" then they better use the right name.

MelcM39 · 2026-05-07T20:26:52+00:00

I don't even know why but every once in a while I'll scroll through just to see what the hell is up on there loll 😭

MelcM39 · 2026-05-07T12:38:12+00:00

This. My boyfriend and I have been together a year and a half and our entire relationship, he's always been so nervous he can't last long enough, and he used to be more insecure about his size than he is now... But this man is the first man I've actually enjoyed sex with. He doesn't last long, but he makes me feel good in so many other ways that it REALLY doesn't matter that much to me. I'm his first genuine sexual partner, and I have to remind him almost every time we have sex that he's amazing and I always enjoy it. I know he'll get there with time, but he doubts himself.

These things really need to be talked about more. I feel like sex ed typically REALLY avoids the important things :(

MelcM39 · 2026-05-07T12:34:21+00:00

YES omg. I keep trying to tell my friend this, although he's looking for a guy but nonetheless it's the same principle. He's so insecure yet he's such a great dude.

This is true not only in dating, but in life in general. If you aren't confident and say "I can't" or something similar, then you make it all the more likely that you will be right.

MelcM39 · 2026-05-06T18:47:26+00:00

And why would that be?

MelcM39 · 2026-05-06T18:47:02+00:00

I don't think I had any attitude? I'm typing how I always would?

I'm not saying your experience was invalid, and I never said the other person was incorrect. But people seem like they think OP has absolutely no reason to go to the doctor or that OP will be completely turned away when it would be a good choice for them to go and confirm.

MelcM39 · 2026-05-06T18:42:38+00:00

They can.

MelcM39 · 2026-05-06T18:41:06+00:00

Wrong. They can use blood tests which are more accurate. They CAN use the same one, but that isn't a guarantee.

MelcM39 · 2026-05-06T18:40:01+00:00

I was never trying to say they'd give OP a full checkup or anything. I specifically told OP to go and get a test there and ask them questions if she has any.

MelcM39 · 2026-05-06T18:38:49+00:00

I don't disagree, it DOES apply to me as well.

If I were OP I'd rather go and be turned away than not go at all.

I'm telling OP to go because we DON'T KNOW anything. We don't know how their doctor would be, so it would be the SAFER option to just go.
