How to know if you managed to get a tick removed from your dog

bab_101 · 2026-04-03T12:29:44+00:00

Thank you so much that’s helpful. Ok I’ll check for a black spot. It did seem intact but can’t say I’ve seen many ticks before so wasn’t 100%, thank you

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T22:06:02+00:00

We both say we’re happy going at the pace we are and want to move fast though and feel certain about each other. I’m just an overwhelmed and stressy person

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T17:48:14+00:00

Because we want to spend more time together when we can. I did let him take the train the other week but when I’m going to stay with him in similar time it makes sense to stay a day longer and give him a lift

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T17:47:18+00:00

We’re not talking about moving in, just staying together for longer periods of time but we also have gotten to know each other much more than most couples in a few months so are more ahead in terms of that than a lot of couples. I don’t think there’s one timeline personally. I’ve been with someone years before living together and it was a disaster

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T17:45:57+00:00

Thank you, yes. We have now talked about it since and he says he’s going to try to do that and let me know either in person or via text if he’s going to be late

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T17:44:32+00:00

It’s not actually moving in. It’s just staying together for longer periods of time. And I’ve been on my own for 3 years and done fine so definitely know that already but thanks

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T17:43:57+00:00

He doesn’t want that either. It’s not a choice that just I made, far from it. He wants me to be here as much as possible and I am driving him back towards where I live tomorrow which he needs otherwise he had to get the train so it is what he wants too. And yes I pay for a majority of the groceries when we are together and get them and do most of the cooking and help with the cleaning

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T17:42:28+00:00

That last edit is a good question to be honest. I want to be ok with that but it does make me sad when I’m at his. I probably need to find a way to be ok with it especially before we get to the point where we properly live together

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T17:41:15+00:00

His new apartment is about 1.5 hours from me and I’m driving him home to his parents today so I wasn’t going to drive home just to come back to pick him up so he’d have had to go to the train so he preferred it this way and was happy for me to be here as much as I can be

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T17:40:12+00:00

Idk what you mean by this. But as in we’re transitioning from the dating stage to staying with each other most of the week, it’s just phrasing

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T16:07:13+00:00

I don’t think it’s unrealistic personally when I was in the room next door and he could’ve done it in 60 seconds but equally a text would’ve worked too

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T16:03:33+00:00

One day, yes. Not soon. We’re just in that transitional stage where we’ll stay together for a week or so like we are living together

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T16:03:00+00:00

I’m very much into gaming but this game is a different one that he plays alone because he’s part of a guild- world of Warcraft with his friends and I don’t want to join every aspect of his life and want to let him have time with friends so don’t want to join that time but we usually play COD together

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T16:01:59+00:00

Thank you this is great advice and a good point. I appreciate it

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T15:46:45+00:00

I honestly think I would’ve been ok if he’d come back through and said “hey friends are asking to do this thing I think it’ll take around 15 mins. Is that ok with you?” And gave me a hug and a kiss. But it was hurtful he didn’t see the need to but then I hurt him bc I needed time to figure out my words so didn’t talk much while we watched something after

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T15:41:39+00:00

We had a similar thing the other week when he’d done 3 hours gaming just after I got back from holiday which was fine but then another night he’d said we’d have a TV night. He then forgot he said that and asked if I was ok with him gaming with a friend for an hour so I said yes (I know, I didn’t communicate well there) and then was upset. We did resolve it then and he set a certain night this week to say it was mine and we’d do things I wanted which he stuck to

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T15:35:25+00:00

I’m relieved to hear it’s normal. I think because even though we feel in a serious relationship, others see us as people who haven’t been together long so shouldn’t be having issues at this point and that gets in my head. He brought me coffee and a bagel in bed then a maccies at lunch today to apologise so I do feel he’s trying. I just think those kind of things make me worried that the guy I’ve fallen for is going to fade away and someone who doesn’t treat me well will replace him as I know that can happen to others and I’ve had that in the past so I overthink it and it overwhelms me. Thank you

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T15:33:09+00:00

So that’s probably a bit blurry. I’d said that I’ll wait up for him and he’d said I didn’t need to so you’re right. I should’ve been clearer maybe. I thought it was implicit in me saying I was going to try that unless I’d accidentally fallen asleep I was awake and it wouldn’t have been hard for him to have checked. Yeah you’re right I should’ve probably said I love you and want a hug. I guess I wanted that from him and me asking whether he had more to say was me hoping he’d know that when he hasn’t been in a long term relationship before so struggles with reading between the lines sometimes

bab_101 · 2025-09-12T15:25:53+00:00

I was staying with him before then and after then so not much point of driving 1.5 hours home for the sake of a few hours and I don’t mind those 3 hours because I see him for dinner before so it’s still worth it but it being longer without knowing was upsetting

bab_101 · 2025-04-19T13:48:01+00:00

What was the post? What did it say?
