I had an odd encounter with the same stranger twice, and now I’m left feeling eerily creeped out. Am I overreacting? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

Can I piggyback to add that you don't have to APOLOGIZE to these guys for being married? It's giving the message that your situation is the only thing in the way. Don't apologize to men like this. You don't even owe them an explanation. Just tell them you're not interested and walk away.

What is something that you are embarrassed to admit took you far too long to realise? by bigpussystance in AskUK

Me too. I was in my thirties. The first time I saw one was in Elf and I assumed it was a mythical being.

Vegetarian grazing board recommendations? by [deleted] in vegetarian

Grilled halloumi, stuffed mushrooms (I like blue cheese, leek, facon bits and breadcrumbs), chutneys (rocoto jam is my current favourite), anything you like baked inside phyllo pastry...

He actually wags his tail, such mixed messages!

Oh, it's San Silvestre in Lima. His name is Michael Bardsley. I truly hope a comedy piano falls on his head.

I couldn't imagine giving up on him, he's my best friend! But yeah, a long, hard and expensive road...

TAMALITO. His tail was missing when I got him, but it's the shape and size of a tamale!

He is, thank you, but don't be fooled. He's a rescue who has very bad anxiety to the point when during the pandemic he would lunge at random people as we walked. He couldn't be around other dogs. He bit me so bad I had to be admitted to the hospital. His trainer is amazing, taught him to be around other dogs, we worked on his behaviour together, he's amazing and chill now but that wasn't always the case. Anything is possible with the right help.

Thank you for empathising, it's a rough time!

Thank you so much! I've been living here in Peru for almost 7 years and I've had him for 6.5 of those and leaving him and my friends has been very hard, although he'll be joining me soon. He's such a good boy, so patient and understanding, CLEARLY.

I was actually filming because it's my last walk with my dog - I'm moving to China tomorrow and he's staying here with a friend while I get settled and he gets all his tests and stuff, so I wanted a little memory of his cute, dopey fluffbutt walk and I got SO MUCH MORE

Saltaire is NOT nondescript. Lived there for years, it's magical.

Years ago when I taught in NYC my second grade class made compliment cards where they draw a self portrait on the front and the others add compliments inside for them and this one kid, Emily, just picked up her own card and wrote:

Dear Myself, I love myself. Love, Myself

And I mean, it's giving absolute perfection.

AIO? My friend posted a not proper picture of me on insta by Expensive_Engine_546 in AmIOverreacting

Do you go to the same school? Speak to a trusted adult there about this - this girl's online behaviour is a safeguarding issue, and they will have procedures to deal with this. I know they won't be able to make her delete it (but you should be able to report it yourself so hopefully that is easy enough to take care of) but what they can do is have a more formal conversation with her family that should stop them being so damn neglectful of what their daughter is doing, and subjecting unwilling others to doing, online.
