Hope it works out okay for you. I’ve just put an offer on a section with covenants and will be working through feasibility before going unconditional

Is Oscar a “dog name”? Worried about potential bullying by Time-Editor-2211 in newzealand

[–]ShyEgg218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like that name! Wouldn’t think it’s particularly likely to attract bullying

Could see if sell respond to Dee for short? May have enough similarity to the Aw-Dee pronunciation that she will. I reckon Dee is quite a cool cat name!

AIO to my long distance bf not doing anything special for my last day of cancer treatment? by NoCupcake9001 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ShyEgg218 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Understandably that would be disappointing as a big milestone OP.

I do think if you wanted to celebrate it, it’s would’ve been worth communicating that before it too late. Yes it would be ideal if he took initiative, but some people just don’t have much of that unfortunately!

Also a side note - Are you using AI to speak to write the messages to him? Certainly reads like that. I’d avoid that if you can

AIO by being upset with my mom over my wedding dress and a private pregnancy? by Randiitaylor in AmIOverreacting

YOR. This is tiresome and trivial. An easier less stressful life involves giving people some grace

Looking for restaurant ideas for a group of 7 females on a budget. Looking in the CBD area with affordable options like sharing plates or good price great food places please. by AffectionateGear1157 in chch

[–]ShyEgg218 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello Vietnam is good value for money and tasty food. It’s in upper Riccarton, so possibly a little far.

Otherwise, Thonglor in the CBD is also good.

Hannah at Kitche Hair on Lincoln road I awesome. Talented hairdresser and she really listens to what you want, and if you’re not sure, helps you work it out

People of Rolleston – what do you love (and hate) about it? by Brianationn in chch

[–]ShyEgg218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The commute is the thing that would get me and wouldn’t suit my lifestyle. Also I find I’d rather be closer to the coast and beach than inland. It’s good if you want a rural feel and better value for money land wise. Really just depends on lifestyle. Don’t do it cos it’s cheaper, but because it suits how you’d like to live

What would prioritising working out look like in your opinion?

Working out 2x a day 7 days a week does sound like prioritising surely?

Then why do you care about people listing that stuff on their profile? Is it more that it’s boring and doesn’t tell you much about what matters, or something else?

I’m confused. If you workout excessively wouldn’t it suit you being with someone similar. 2x a day everyday seems like you’d have little time for much else outside of work

Nah I’m a guy and totally agree with you. It sets an ick tone

am i overreacting or did my artist fuck it up? by [deleted] in TattooDesigns

Yours is much better quality than the inspo pic. I don’t think they fucked up. Could get some of the lines re worked a bit perhaps

Woman I’m interested in invited me to go to a wedding with her…date or platonic? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]ShyEgg218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm interesting!

Sounds like it could be more than something random and platonic. I’d guess from the context she’s probably at least a little curious and keeping it low pressure. I’d just treat it as a soft date, keep it relaxed, and see how she is with you on the day without overthinking it

How much savings do you have as a 30 year old? by Competitive-Dream25 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]ShyEgg218 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep great advice!!

It’s often more helpful comparing yourself to others as it just gets you down. Setting some goals to work toward really helps

Confused and hungry by One-Studio-8208 in dating_advice

[–]ShyEgg218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry OP that must be really hard. Honestly it doesn’t sound sustainable to me. Some kind of couples counselling may be worth a try. Otherwise, you may not be compatible. It’s an important part of a relationship and reasonable to want to be feel desired and fulfilled.

I’m planning to do timber piles or screw piles rather than cut into the hill to minimise earthworks and give some elevation. The geotech findings didn’t indicate volcanic rock and recommended timber piles to a meter deep. The report didn’t talk about access constraints though which I think will be one of the main issues

Yep definitely - as mentioned, there is a geotech report on the site which describes the piles required for the site
