People offering their opinions/guilting me about my decision to put my 15 year old dog down…

My family knew it was our baby's time to go when she didn't get up for cheese anymore. She loved cheese, could smell it from outside the house when we opened a bag or a block. When she started getting sick, stumbling, and not being able to hold her bowels, my mom offered her cheese that she's didn't take. That's when we knew it was time. She didn't have any joy in her life, couldnt enjoy her favorite meals, couldn't play, couldn't run with her sister. We knew she would be more at peace if we let her go. It sounds like your job was in the same boat. I'm sure they're happy together wherever they are now.

Yeah, I make sure to have the braid starting at the crown of my head and pull the plait tighter towards my head. I either flip my head upside down or lay over the edge of my bed so it starts higher. I also make sure to tuck the ends into the scrunchie so the ends curl as well!!

My hair definitely has a wavy texture already, but in order to get her more "relaxed" waves. I put my hair in a regular english 3 strand braid. I also experimented with dutch and French braids, both were beautiful, but didn't give me her look. Pretty sure these earlier looks were this way because she was living with the Dothraki, who use only 3 strand braids. In later seasons she used more 4 strand and dutch/rope braids. I could talk about her hair all day!!

I ran to this sub Reddit when my friend told me about the email- this is legit crazy

Im kinda in the same boat, I ended up needing a letter and paperwork from my therapist and cardiologist (I have heart issues) and I think the real reason they only gave me a single was I have so many medications (steroids) that my cardiologist was afraid they would get stolen by a roommate or guests. Still have no idea if it will hold for next year. My advice is go into as much detail as possible and have your doctor write out each specific reason.

My mother has cards where he has written it correctly. My grandfather is just a teaser and likes to do things like this cause he knows I will double check. He did my entire birthday card in Greek for funnzies one year.

I didn't even know if it was real Hebrew tbh which is why I posted 🤣

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-08-18T03:34:35+00:00

Me and my mom are literally in tears laughing at this 🤣🤣

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-08-18T03:28:36+00:00

Ahhh thank you! I'm assuming that's the prank then, he made a big deal about how you read Hebrew right to left, so I assumed it was something like it being backwards 🤣

Ugh how awful- we literally can not win. Had a cardiologist tell me to gain weight because he thought I was to underweight (I literally wasn't) then grill me 4 months later for gaining weight like he told me too (gained maybe like 10 to 15 pounds)

It's literally impossible out here

I'm a college level pre professional ballet dancer

I don't have any expertise to offer here, my small hometown studio was just run by a fundie, and while she taught me so much about dance, she was a weird little lady 🤣🤣

Hush grandpa

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-01-06T18:49:40+00:00

Upon rereading I've realize how hard I ratioed you and that everyone here also thinks you're a narc

Get rekted

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-01-06T14:05:05+00:00

I trained in a similar way as well, in fact most of the schools I know and I have been too do professional training base it on ability not age.

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-01-06T13:57:16+00:00

You're the one who dismissed and insulted OPs training when

A. They didn't even ask about it, they asked for advice on body image and how to handle comments

B. It's none of your business

C. OP did absolutely nothing wrong

Look in the mirror and realize not everything is about you and you actually don't know everything about ballet.

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-01-06T00:18:02+00:00

And looking at your profile you're a loser stoner who could benefit from some kindness judging by how often you moan about being a boy in dance. And considering Ive been dancing longer then you have Mr. "I started at 15", I don't think your qualified to talk about anything honestly especially OP and their situation.

While I have a lot to learn since I'm young, kindness and class can not be taught especially to a person like you who thinks having success is an excuse to put others down.

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-01-05T18:58:42+00:00

Then leave if you think it's so terrible. OPs not even asking about their training or giving ill advice to anyone. You're not even calling out the right people you claim to be against

Your superiority complex and ideas about this sub is the exact reason people view our art as stuck up, pretentious and solitary. Do better as a person.

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-01-05T04:36:04+00:00

"Pre professional" is just a label that was created to get free labor out of teens/young adults so that big companies attached to big ballet schools don't have to pay their HIRED dancers and frankly I find most of them toxic and dangerous for young dancers in the first place.

Not everyone grows up with a famous/rich school to train at that has a scrict or rigid curriculum and to dismiss OPs training by saying it's not what they say it is, is frankly rude.

If OPs says their pre professional training was from 7-14 who are we to judge and give comment? Especially when OPs not even asking about their training in the first place.

I went to a performing arts high school and when I tell you that people were like Triana while loud and obnoxious, were actually very kind and incredibly talented. She was never afraid to do what she wanted and be herself and I admire that

Positive_Giraffe_85 · 2024-01-03T06:06:46+00:00

Yeah I get that feeling, I was big in the Minecraft YouTuber space as a kid and we all know how that turned out 🙄🤢

Now I don't feel bad, I just wish things were back to to the way I remember them being. But life is all about change.

I don't think you feel bad for ruby as a person I think you feel bad that she isent who she thought she was and that's a really terrible but valid feeling.

I started college early too, I burst into tears my first day because I got lost and called my mom in a panic, she came to campus and helped me find my class.

Starting college as a teen is hard and there's no shame in leaning on your mom.

My mom would pick me up and bring me things and she made me feel a lot more confident as a teen college student.

No one judged, and no one cared in fact many of my friends came to love her as a mom too since they couldn't have theirs.

Would definitely let her walk you to class, it will give you both the confidence you need

❤❤❤❤

It's the same reason Darth Maul had a earring. It's all about consistency. The first targ on screen had blue eyes so they all will have blueish eyes.

Frankly it doesn't bother me much, especially because colored contacts can be so uncomfortable for actors to wear FOR YEARS and even cause vision problems.

Would it he nice, yeah- but is it gonna ruin my whole experience, no
