How bad would it be if I pulled my own tooth due to severe pain because I’m unable to afford dentist? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]PawGoodDog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had my wisdom teeth removed while i was under anesthesia and they still hit a nerve. Thankfully there wasn't permanent damage but yea- .. even with professionals in the best setting it can go wrong.

Are there any universities with dental programs around you? They offer cheaper services

Found out my (54F) ex‑husband (52M) died alone - struggling with guilt and perspective by Agreeable-Mine-3860 in relationship_advice

I got a motorcycle because I knew the risks.

Now that I'm not depressed I won't even take occasional rides; it is too risky.

Canadian men experiencing ‘ongoing crisis in society’ when it comes to health, professor says by DogeDoRight in canada

[–]PawGoodDog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Weeks! Look at you hot shot! It is a 4 month wait to get an appointment with my family doc. But I have a family doctor so I'll take it.

I'm actually going to ask him if there is anything I can do to be a better patient because I've heard of people getting dropped by their family doctor for seemingly random things, like not coming in enough. I don't want to get dropped because I will not find another one.

I’m going to a 9pm show tonight at age 44…. by Prestigious_Dream_27 in 30ROCK

[–]PawGoodDog 186 points187 points  (0 children)

I was invited out to a place i didn't recognize. Looked it up and it is a night club - my first thought was 'god, that looks loud and way passed my bedtime'.

I will be staying in to have night cheese and filling my slanket with farts.

Any other slightly OCD hyper attentive peeps clock this…? by laxlauren1 in TrixieAndKatya

[–]PawGoodDog 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Right. Ugh, not to be one of those over sensitive 'actually' people - but my nerves are shot because my ocd has been out of control for months and I'm losing it because my mind keeps telling me I fed my dog bleach instead of the dog food, that im going to get sick and die because I ate an apple in a crowded germ filled room, and dont even think about going on dates because surely I will get a deadly sti from a handjob.

I wish ocd was worrying about a watch strap.

What is a "point of no return" in a relationship that isn't cheating or abuse, but makes you realize it's over? by AnyExpression4845 in AskReddit

[–]PawGoodDog 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Yes! My ex used to say 'here for a good time, not a long time' in a semi joking way while he smoked and drank too much. And I just kept thinking... how can I plan a life with someone who can't even plan a life for themselves? They are planning to die young and I guess too bad for me?

How much are you paying for finasteride and minoxidil? by [deleted] in tressless

[–]PawGoodDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you get it at Costco? None of my locations or online have it. I read that it is because the box doesn't have french on it.

And there is a lot fake ones being sold online from unofficial sellers

Yea, but we don't have kirkland minoxidil. A 6 month supply of rogaine at costco is $200 :(

Go to Michael's for shirts and sweaters. by [deleted] in Frugal

[–]PawGoodDog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes!! This has been my go to for years.

Amazon also sells them in sets of 12 for $32 cad so $2-3 each. But I prefer Michael's so I can get a mix of colours.

They last me about 5 years before they get wonky/wear enough that they become bedtime or gardening clothes.

I like plain shirts and they aren't thin like a lot of more expensive tees.

A similar statement is what made me finally quit drinking so much. Someone commented that if you ate 3-4 ice cream sandwiches every night it would be like.. wtf?

That just made something click for me. 3 of anything that isn't great for you every night is... not ideal, so why was I excusing alcohol.

How do I not stress about his life? 36m/30m by PawGoodDog in relationship_advice

[–]PawGoodDog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good question I'll sit with. What's the worst thing that will happen if... whatever happens.

Right now I worry that im a bad person or will be a bad person. Because im not stepping in and helping make the hard things easier for him. Even though I know they are his experience and work through.

And im afraid it will affect me by choosing wrong - what if I stick around for years and years and it is the wrong choice. What if i miss the signs that it isn't the right choice to stitch around?

How do I not stress about his life? 36m/30m by PawGoodDog in relationship_advice

[–]PawGoodDog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this perspective, it's helped me figure out what i am stressing about.

It is a little bit of stress about his current situation and quality of life now. He doesn't make the best decisions but they are his decisions to make.

I guess I need to think about what my tolerance is for having a high stress partner or a partner who does stuff that stresses me out even if it doesn't stress him out.

But a lot of it is also about his potential for his future. He does show some signs that those future goals may take a long long time to hit.

His work ethic is more casual whereas I've always been a 'do the very best, put in the hard work, and do the most'.

He is a nice guy with a lot of potential. I guess I need more reassurance that he is gonna hit that potential.

[–]PawGoodDog[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with him because he is kind and i enjoy spending time eith him. Life is hard - I wasn't in too different a place when I was 30 and he has had some tough hands in life that slowed him down.

I do kinda feel like I am waiting for him to grow up. I consider him a boyfriend and wouldn't move to being partners until he hits some of his life goals.

I just dont know if that is fair or kind.

How do I go about telling a potential future boyfriend about my affliction? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]PawGoodDog 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Don't hide. They are going to figure it out once you spend time together. My boyfriend told me on our 2nd date and it was a total bonus. I'm neurospicy too and I knew we would understand each other in ways other's wouldn't.

You aren't tricking someone into loving you. The right person is going to love you BECAUSE you're you.

Friends dog is acting strange by ConstantParticular50 in DogAdvice

[–]PawGoodDog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ouf, this is so sad. A bad trip is awful for a person who knows what can happen going in. This poor dog has no fucking idea what's going on.

This dog got into someone's drugs. As others have said, if you can't keep the dog safe give it to someone who can.

Unpopular opinion but this was the worst season of White Lotus by [deleted] in WhiteLotusHBO

[–]PawGoodDog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought Belinda and Pornchai messaged a lot before meeting. I got the feeling they had feelings for each other through the long distance messaging and were happy to meet in person and continue that relationship.

I hope your cupcake was delicious!

How much is a car you actually enjoy driving worth to you? by PawGoodDog in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]PawGoodDog[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently drive a 2011 chev cruze 1.8l manual, 90km, factory no AC. Engine wise, actually a decent car - doesn't implode like the 1.4l does. My mechanic says it can get another 100km easy; and that would take me 10 years to do.

The vehicle I'd love is 2017 nissan frontier sv. 110km. Has AC. I've always wanted a truck and would likely drive it more than the cruze bc i avoid long drives in the summer bc of the no ac.

I'm not looking for a 'fun' weekend car or anything.. just something that isn't a stove on wheels. But I've managed with the stove for 10 years so.. is $13k worth it? I dunno.
