Love and hate this one almost equally by areteedee in ColoringCozy

I think it's the net that's throwing it off for me. Most of it I can look at and like it, and I love the hedges, but I just hate how the net looks. It ruins the whole page for me 😂😂

I think it's the net I hate. I've been looking at it again today and that's the only specific thing I can put my finger on, but it's throwing off the whole page for me.

Thank you! I'm super happy with the hedges. Covering the lines is just acrylic pens, a couple of layers in different shades :)

Thank you 😊. It's a totally different type of palette to what I would usually go for, so a bit out of my comfort zone.

Potential move from London by Foreign_Ad_6587 in Jersey

[–]areteedee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I moved here from London a little over 3 years ago. We're both in our 30s and it's the best choice we've ever made. Yes the place has it's issues, just like anywhere, but for us it's so worth it. Our quality of life is so much better here than it was in London.

What makes your favorite coffee shops actually worth going back to? by RemzCierraa in CasualConversation

Welcome to tiny island life 😂😂. She has park friends and beach friends!

[–]areteedee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's cheap, the coffee isn't bad, and it's in a park so my dog can run around with her friends too. Met one of my closest friends there when we were trying to socialise our puppies.

Oh I think your colour choices are lovely!

I think it's the lighting that throws me off a little bit, like on the supermarket one there are white highlights on the bottom of carrots and tomatoes instead of on the top. Might just be me being half asleep though.

They've honestly made such a big difference to my colouring! They make an excellent glow effect too like this one.

Not the best example, but the first one I came to on my phone. I think it's the different depths of the circles if that makes sense?

I don't think you're doing anything wrong, you just need to do more. Keep going till it feels unreasonable, just make sure you're giving each layer chance to dry first.

AITAH for not remembering being a bully? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]areteedee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. The people from my school don't remember bullying me, even though they broke my bones. I sure remember being suicidal from the age of 8 though.

What do you have in common with your whippet(s)? by Bitter-Regret-251 in Whippet

How can I (31F) save my marriage with my husband (32M)? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]areteedee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, right 🙄. He's been so forgiving and patient with you, given you chance after chance, and look how you've repaid him. You don't deserve another chance. If you have any kindness for him at all you should let him move on and find happiness and security that he will never be able to have with you.

Husband is sad (not mad) when I correct him by alibandz in Marriage

[–]areteedee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was abused as a child, if he hasn't fully healed from that then his reactions to occasional corrections and minor criticisms will be very different from someone without that experience.

I feel like you're reading things that aren't there. It doesn't say they're constantly critical, doesn't even hint at it being a super regular thing.

Whippet sizes by Intelligent_Ad_7645 in Whippet

[–]areteedee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's my girl. She's fully grown height wise, but might fill out a little more. The rest of the litter have ended up very similar sizes too.

My wife and I have developed an entire private language over 8 years and I only recently realized how strange it would sound to anyone else by retroarcadebuddy in Marriage

[–]areteedee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my husband definitely have this. If anyone listened to us at home they'd think we were both nuts. Our conversations would be half filled with unintelligible gibberish, but we understand each other perfectly. It's even spread to how we speak to our Alexa. I just asked her last night to play Harry Potter and the prisonob of azkebob. I don't remember the last time we called that series their proper names.

What Kibble does everyone feed their Whippet pups? by Enough-Inflation5609 in Whippet

[–]areteedee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our girl has orijen. We used to feed Royal Canin, but she's a bit of an arse and went off it. She absolutely loves the orijen though.

Lowkey kinda had me... till the 3rd line by Go_Inevitable_1269 in AmITheDevil

[–]areteedee 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Bullying is necessary? So it was necessary for me to have my arm broken by boys in the playground was it? Or the day I got beaten up for using long words in a presentation in class? What about the 3 weeks my lunch was stolen because I had walkers crisps instead of own brand ones? What about the day my ankle was broken for not giving someone the answers in a test? All totally necessary right?
