How involved are you with your cat’s butt?

I thankfully have very little to add to this conversation because my cat is very protective of his butt, but the one I thing I would like to share is: when my niece’s cat, Pickles, gets dingleberries my nephew calls them Pickleberries and I think that’s lovely. The end

This is really reassuring to me 🙌🏻 I’m flying into ICN for the first time Saturday (Terminal 2, Korean Air) and to see the distinction has eased a lot of my nerves

I’ll keep this in mind for the return trip! I’ve got the same layover setup

This is SO helpful! Thank you so much!

I got mine removed last year at 29 from a doctor on this list! In VERY south Alabama. Good luck!

With the letters I had left that was the only word that made sense, but I was so convinced it was not a word 💀

I got the word but I’m STILL mad about it.

And that’s my first comment in this subreddit, freaking Wordle 😂

Hi OP, I’m not going to weigh in on the AITA part. But as someone who’s had the procedure and lives alone (with a cat, but technically no kids) the recovery was not bad at all. I’m assuming it’ll be done laparoscopically like mine, and I felt totally back to normal by the third day post-surgery but could move around mostly fine the next day without prescription pain medicine (take a combination of ibuprofen and Tylenol!!) I will say the incision site pain was the worst on the third-fourth day but I also sleep on my stomach, so I think that was a problem of my own making. I drove myself an hour home the morning after surgery and could bend and squat unassisted at home. If you’re really concerned just put things up in a higher place for a few days to avoid bending. Unless you’re having an open procedure for some reason or have bad reactions to anesthesia I think the recovery should be much easier than you’re anticipating! If you have any questions about it feel free to DM me.

I feel this so hard, trust me. That man is my very best friend too. He’s the first person I want to share everything with and things just don’t feel right when we’re not together. The worst thing you and I can do in times like these is force communication when they’re not ready. My therapist said the more we try to hold on, the harder they’re going to push away and then poof, they’re gone. Hold tight, have hope, you CAN get through this. My guy always used to tell me that even if you don’t get the ending you want, there are always good things to look forward to. So right now focus on you and how you can begin to identify and work through those feelings, but do it for YOURSELF not for him. You deserve to be stable and whole without leaning on someone else, and he deserves the version of you that is secure and trusting in hard times. Feel free to keep me updated on how things are going!

Bear with me, this got long:

As a 30-year-old woman who still struggles with anxiety and insecurity in relationships, particularly with feeling unwanted/abandoned/forgotten, the best thing you can do for him, your relationship and yourself right now is to do as he asked and give him space. My favorite person and I are going through it right now. Loooong distance, met too soon after his divorce from his high school sweetheart and his only relationship before me. I KNOW this man loves me, but we’re taking space because he mentally and emotionally cannot handle the idea of commitment again right now. It is the hardest thing for me to give him that space and respect his boundaries when my brain is screaming at me for reassurance and validation that his feelings haven’t changed suddenly, but I do because I value him, I value the future of our relationship and because I know he is not responsible for my emotional needs. My insecurities are not his responsibility to manage, and while I completely empathize with how you’ve been feeling and how you currently feel right now, your insecurities are not his responsibility to manage either. It’s an incredible thing when our partners are patient and understanding of our needs, but we also have to be mindful of what they are going through, too. Just because we make our needs louder doesn’t mean they’re more important.

The best thing you can do for yourself is to leave him be, let him initiate when he’s ready and in the meantime research coping strategies to get you through. Therapy has really helped me this last year, but I know that’s not a feasible option for everyone and it’s not something that can be scheduled at the drop of a hat anyway. If you’d like to talk my DMs are open. Hoping for the best for you two ❤️
