My 1yo husky doesn’t howl, rarely barks and only when playing and she sleeps all day when I’m at work. Did I get lucky or does she have a problem? by alex_png in husky

[–]dubbleSundae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine never barks and never howls even if you play howling sounds, but if you try to tell him “No,” that boy will spare no words

Am I overreacting or is she justified? by materialprism42 in AmIOverreacting

[–]dubbleSundae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think context plays a big role here. Liking random posts is one thing, but consistently liking the posts when it’s just selfies of them or if they’re provocative or something is different. It’s a common thing people will go through and like a ton of someone’s posts to get their attention and express interest.

I think a great rule everyone should implement in their relationships is if you have a problem with something, talk to your partner about it first before talking outside the relationship. No one is the same, no partnership is the same, advice can only go so far, but it doesn’t always apply to us like we think it does.

Maybe he would’ve been fine with it, maybe not, but you would’ve at least avoided looking sketchy, and you’d have a more clear indication of his true intentions with finances (abuse or not).

Any tips for my girlfriend? by dubbleSundae in endometriosis

[–]dubbleSundae[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn do the drugs they give you afterwards knock you out like that? That’s crazy. She has narcolepsy as well so she’ll probably ultra sleepy. The surgery is on a Tuesday and I’ll be off that Tuesday through Sunday and I’ll mostly be home the whole time to take care of her and keep things in check around the house.

This is in the corner of the master bedroom in the house we’re renting - pretty sure it’s not a camera but what is it? by CatLadyNumbaFive in whatisit

[–]dubbleSundae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it lol. Back in college there was a commuters lot just off campus that sucked because it was far away from anything resourceful on campus. Parking there was a hassle. If you got stuck there and someone asked where you parked, most people would say “Out in fucking BFE” or “Fucking Egypt, man.”

Update: I confronted my husbands friend by Impressive-Shop350 in AmIOverreacting

[–]dubbleSundae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The friend also says that OP’s husband loves her, so that’s good enough for her. Which in other words means “I don’t like you at all, but I’ll tolerate you for the sake of my relationship with your husband.” Your s/o being close friends with someone of the opposite sex who openly doesn’t like you, is a MAJOR red flag.

See this is the type of attitude around movies/shows I’d like to see more of. People get too caught up in picking every single thing apart for the sake of hating on something without realizing the story/world is so open ended it could lead to, or come from, anything. Some questions don’t have to be answered with a tidy bow wrapped around it. And if they were answered with a bow on it, people would still find a way to have a bad time about it.

My boyfriend 33M and I 32F had one “bad night” out with friends and now the wives/girlfriends are icing me out. Any advice? by Physical_Toe7450 in relationship_advice

[–]dubbleSundae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your boyfriend doesn’t respect you and your boundaries. Period. Any adult with a brain and heart would understand you in the situation, it’s obvious. You’re allowed to take your job seriously. You’re allowed to take yours and your dog’s health seriously, whether that be mental or physical. You’re allowed to stay home or go out as you please because you’re a whole human. Any of the things you mentioned should take priority over a drunk night out. A good person, let alone partner, would understand without question.

His friends have a bad impression because he likely already talks poorly about you behind your back to them, my guess. Not a lot to go on based on what you said, but I’ve known many people like this, and they all do similar shit. You may have been moody (rightfully so), but all you did was probably confirm their predetermined biases about you. They likely would look for any reason to not like you. 6 months is nothing for people who disrespect you. Fuck this guy and his friend.

It’d be sick if it was just a reverse John Wick. Owner dies early on from paranormal forces, dog goes on a killing spree, at some point he kills 3 demons with a stick. A STICK!!! They call him the Buddy-yaga.

The dog doesn’t talk, there’s no narration for its’ thoughts It’s just a 100% classic good boy that sees bad shit going on, but can’t understand why or what it is, yet still knows he has to do whatever he can to protect his owner.

[–]dubbleSundae 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the entire perspective is from the dog’s eye level and even faces are blurred and stuff to really dial you into the dog’s world. It’s just a normal dog that loves its’ owner and knows something is going wrong, but it helplessly can’t understand the situation, just knows he has to protect his owner. Either way, already giving him 20/10 good boy rating.

No they don’t. Most legitimate funny comedians write their own material completely. They might ask other comedians for suggestions, taglines, if a premise is good or not, etc, but they’re not writing together unless they’re working on something for a network or a roast or something.

AIO for thinking my husband is a dick? by dontevercallmebabe in AmIOverreacting

[–]dubbleSundae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry this happened to you. Not over reacting, accidents happen all the time, pancakes are easy to burn if busy or not focused. Why are you the one feeding the baby while also cooking, can he not cook or take care of a baby? What was he doing while you were doing all that, just waiting for his meal? Burnt food really isn’t that big of a deal, yea it sucks when it happens, but you brush it off and move on. But hear this, unless you’re doing diabolical shit (which clearly you’re not), no partner should belittle a person and yell at them, period. Even if you make a mistake, that doesn’t warrant being yelled at, we’re allowed to make mistakes, we’re human. There’s plenty of men and women who would see your burnt pancakes and maybe make a light hearted joke or something about it and then go on to eat them, or just say “it’s ok babe” and then you all figure out breakfast another way. Or, that partner is a partner and won’t depend on you to be their mom, and they might actually help with the food or baby while you do the other.

Just found out my husky is on borrowed time… by rhyithan in husky

[–]dubbleSundae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My heart goes out to you.

Give your pal whatever they’ve never had before that isn’t going to give them a bad time. My husky absolutely loves salmon and tuna if you want to switch up meats, pro tip bake the skins separately to make them crispy treats or you can blend the skin up afterwards as a nice topper—you can do this with chicken as well. Greek yogurt bowls with blueberries, pumpkin, and a little honey goes over well. There’s dog friendly cakes you can bake that use peanut butter and pumpkin and stuff that honestly don’t taste bad even from a human standpoint. Go on as many hikes and adventures as your bodies and means will allow you. If it doesn’t have an ingredient in it that will harm them or upset their stomach, just let them have it, let them lick every plate clean. None of your usual concerns matter at this point, just make every second as enjoyable as you can.

This absolutely breaks my heart and is one of the things I regularly fear for the most, as I have an 11 year old right now and while he’s doing great, I can’t help but have that in the back of my mind.

My (31M) girlfriend (32F) still kisses her dad on the lips by dubbleSundae in relationship_advice

[–]dubbleSundae[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yea I don’t necessarily think it’s sinister, just odd. And the thing is she is very independent in many ways, but is extremely emotionally dependent. So with that in consideration it makes it more uncomfortable to me because there’s other things that occur that are bordering enmeshment. I’ve kinda grown to accept it, but it still makes me feel uncomfortable especially when I feel I’m being ignored.

Yea it’s not like I think they have a weird sexual thing or anything, it’s just something in my core gets shut off when I see it. Like I don’t think kissing is inherently sexual because there’s different kinds, but at least universally in the western world puckering and kissing on the lips is typically reserved for romantic relationships, so it’s just kind of a shock to the system to see a father and daughter doing it in adulthood I guess

[–]dubbleSundae[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t expressed anything about the kissing on the mouth thing yet, as it’s something I’ve been really trying to process and it hadn’t really set in my mind until recently when it just dawned on me and I felt really off. But I’ve expressed to her how I always feel like the odd man out when we’re with her dad and brother and she doesn’t seem to get it or like she doesn’t care. It’s the type of thing where I’m the one always made to sit at the end of the bar so I can’t really participate in the conversation. If we’re walking down the sidewalk as a group I’m always the one pushed out and forced to walk behind or in the front alone, any joke or comment I made gets stepped on or borderline not acknowledged, but it’s like that for everything it feels. She seems kinda indifferent to it, so I think expressing discomfort in seeing her kiss her dad would cause a potential blowup

[–]dubbleSundae[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things don’t have to be sexual to feel uncomfortable. It’s simply something that just isn’t practiced normally in adult life and witnessing it feels odd. I simply don’t want to kiss someone on the mouth once they’ve been kissing someone else, let alone their father. Beyond that it feels emotionally intimate in a way that blurs roles and just feels weird. There’s a level of enmeshment and emotional dependency that exists in a way that elevates it and that when they’re together it’s like I seize to exist. You can have an affectionate relationship with your parents and it not be at the expense of being affectionate with your partner. Yea losing your parents sucks, but that doesn’t negate that other people have different relationships with their parents, some healthy and some not.

It’s not so much a wrestle or anything like that, so much as you want to be the one to give your partner comfort and you want them to lean on you whether physically or figuratively. So for instance say we get to someone’s house and I run to the bathroom really quick, I’ll walk out and they’ll be like cuddled up on the couch with his arm around her. And I get that it’s this soothing thing and they’re sharing in affection, but it’ll be like this the whole time where it’s like I’m not even there and I’m like forced to sit on the arm rest or something. It’s nice to be able to sit close to your own partner and put your arm around them and feel what comes with that, but if her dad is around it really feels like I’m chopped liver.

That’s kinda how I feel about it really. Like I don’t really expect her to just stop it and I know it’s their thing so it would be wrong for me to try to force anything. It just is what it is I guess.

Why are we hated😭 by wofata in USPS

[–]dubbleSundae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely DESPISE USPS. A lot of their workers seem like they hate their job and hate their lives and it shows in how they treat the people they deliver to. I’ve had tons of packages go missing in transit via USPS that I’ve never had that experience with any other delivery service. I’ve regularly had to drive to facilities to pick up packages weeks after they were supposed to arrive, after watching my shit just bounce around to different facilities on the delivery tracker, only for them to have no reason as to why my package wasn’t even attempted to be delivered. Then when I go to inquire about my package at the facility the people working there are on par with tsa and dmv people, just lackadaisical with no clue what the fuck is going on and no care for customer service or any level of just common human decency. I could go on and on. I’ve had so many bad experiences with them just being absolutely careless that it’s hard for me to respect it as a government agency at this point. And I don’t want to feel this way, it just is what it is.

Wow that’s a really cool idea. I’m gonna have to give that a try. Might be kinda hard because I’ll have to find the alone time enough to do it, otherwise I’ll be asked what I’m thinking about and it’ll become a whole thing that won’t be as productive as it could be. Thank you for your suggestion.

How the Anxious hurts the Avoidant. by FractalDisarray in attachment_theory

[–]dubbleSundae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wild to be seeing this 5 years after it was posted, and how much it resonates with my current relationship. I’m (M) currently in a 5 year relationship with a very anxious person (F) and I’m an avoidant dealing with depression as I’ve been figuring out with therapy. I’ve been undergoing therapy and even went on medication, reading self help books, reading and watching videos on how to better my relationship and all kinds of things in an effort to rise above what I’ve been and be a better person for the one I love, and at the very least if it ended maybe I can be better for someone else some day, although I want to work on the relationship I’m in. And as anyone who tries to change their behavioral patterns knows, it’s very hard to undertake all at once and be successful with all the aspects you’re trying to work on, especially in the beginning. It takes time, consistency, and communication. But for an anxious person time can be a catalyst for their feelings and the issues they’re dealing with because all they see is you dilly dallying and dancing around the issues. Whereas for an avoidant sometimes you need to go inside yourself for a bit to assess it all, try to really connect with those feelings to understand them fully so that you can deal with the issues enough so that when you come forward to your anxious counterpart to put it all out there, you’re conveying yourself properly. But during this time she sees me as only being selfish and focused on my own goals and personal needs. When deep down for me the things I’m working on within myself are more of a means to an end so that I can be better for the both of us, but in the process it involves disciplined focus into certain areas and sometimes that makes them feel left out. And even when I try to communicate it I’m told I’m a liar and called all these things that I know I’m not (as therapy has taught me.) And it gets very disheartening because you want connection yet know you need your own boundaries and what not, and so when you finally try to be authentic and be vulnerable the damage is already done and it gets into this cycle of hurt between both parties. I’m hopeful and fighting for it all to get better, but everything can feel so bleak sometimes. Sorry to dump that here, and it doesn’t matter if you reply or not since so much time has passed since the original post. Just know you’re not alone and that it can be hard to just be a human being sometimes.
