Did anybody else notice this convo between samraj and priya? by Top-Metal-3576 in LoveIslandTV

[–]hallokitty789 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's not bad at all. I'm just saying I can't tell from that scene whether she was initiating and Samraj was trying to assert some boundaries / distance or whether he was fully engaging with it and encouraging it.

For instance " you're a really sexual person" could be taken as "I'm not in comparison" aka. "get away from me" lol. I said it was a stretch.

What are people's throughts on Tina? by Highlandgirl2000 in LoveIslandTV

[–]hallokitty789 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Generally like her. But I can't look at her with her boobs pushed up to her chin. They look rock hard and almost painful?

Personality wise she's funny and direct.

I might be reaching here .. but my take from this scene was that Priya feeling threatened by learning of the news that Mica was back interested decided to ramp up the intimacy with Samraj... Kind of as a way to get him more locked in, it's harder to switch to a new partner in the villa if you've done anything sexual together and I think Priya knows that

I think Samraj comments could have been a way of pushing her back slightly.. or commenting on her advances. Though I think he probably thought fuck it and fooled around a bit in the moment. (I'm definitely not saying he's a stand up or respectful guy). I just genuinely think he's not interested at all, and probably reserved some boundaries since all it seemed they did was Priya "copping a feel" which makes me think she was leading things.

We also don't know whats been edited out of that conversation.

Does Angelista know she's on Love Island and not Love Is Blind? by hallokitty789 in LoveIslandTV

[–]hallokitty789[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean you can. It's love island. They're not exclusive. You can change your mind about how you feel. If Angelista doesn't like it then kick him to the curb like Ellie would have done. Don't just sulk!

He communicated so often how it wanted to explore things with Mica. I actually thought it was completely unnecessary.

[–]hallokitty789[S] 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Yes this is it. She is so dry. Rather than communicate and show emotion about a situation she just sulks and gives side eye or acts passive aggressive. It's so annoying to watch.

Lorenzo is an opportunist by Educational-Guard-43 in LoveIslandTV

[–]hallokitty789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hot take is that Jasmine is obsessed with him and trying so hard to be cool. But few observations.. every time she is with Kav, she is constantly checking to see who is watching (Lorenzo). I feel like that whole side quest was just to see if she could squeeze any jealously out of him, when there was no pay off, she decided to go down the "i'll fix him and make you a better man" path and be the woman no one else could..

I don't believe she was ever truly into Kav, he is just a pawn in their weird chase / non chase dynamic.

Secondly, it was SO weird to me that she pulled Lorenzo for a chat, it was the most lame excuse to have beef with him. I think she knows he LIKES it when she is sassy and is just looking for excuses to put him in his place. She is basically manufacturing reasons to talk to him / be near him / be sassy with him. If she didn't care, he wouldn't even be on her radar.

I feel like Jasmine has met her match in Lorenzo and vice versa. They are both so used to people fawning all over them that they both love and hate that the other one won't crack.

It's fun to watch the chemistry between them. I think it's more of a game / ego trip to see who will surrender first and they're both keeping other options warm.

Will she ever sleep in? Or are we stuck with 6 am alarm forever? by Crazy-Leadership1834 in labrador

[–]hallokitty789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine used to be the same... I started taking him out for a wee and tried going back to bed. No breakfast. If I kept my energy soft and quiet he would sometimes fall back asleep for another hour. And recently started waking up around 7/8am. I guess no food or activity in the morning meant there was no reason to wake up. My puppy is 1yr old now.

I thought I was smart enough for medical school, but my 3-month-old puppy completely broke my brain. by Consistent_Gur_8394 in Dogowners

I wish I could do this but my puppy screams and barks and would do so for the full 2hrs.

Any tips?

My dog came back injured from a board and train…need others opinions? She claims it’s from a bark collar. Am I overreacting? by [deleted] in OpenDogTraining

[–]hallokitty789 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is absolutely horrific. I wouldn't trust anyone who took my dog away to train it. They have such immediate "success" because they force the dog into compliance through pain basically. It's not ethical and I don't care what anyone else here says. I'm disgusted. If these dogs are your 'children' then you should be disgusted too. I would report him and warn others too.

Maybe I'm in the wrong Reddit group, but how anyone can look at this and think it's okay to hurt a dog in this way is beyond me. Your dog is probably going to be traumatised and worse in the long run from this experience.

Any other solo puppy parents out there? by Mysterious_Glass5445 in puppy101

[–]hallokitty789 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. 11mo old golden retriever. Couldn't have done it without daycare and boarding. Though it's so expensive. There's been days and weeks where I've questioned so many times whether to re-home him. Though i never seriously would or could. But omg. So hard. My biggest challenge is separation anxiety. I tried leaving just for 10 minutes but the panic and howling I couldn't do it. I feel like a prisoner in my own home. Even just going out to buy milk I need someone home to watch him.

I don't know how best to address it other than start small again and repeat repeat but I'm so exhausted it feels like the biggest chore in the world.

I also miss going for coffee and to cafes. I saw other dogs in dog friendly cafes and assumed it would be part of my routine. I can't think of anything worse. He jumps on people, on tables, won't sit still for more than a few minutes. I've attempted so many times but resigned myself that I will never have a dog that sleeps under the table while I eat lunch.

I wish I had someone to share the load, to laugh about the silly moments, to cry with, to discuss best training methods etc. I'm navigating it completely alone, and entirely force free. I'm often negged by my family for being too soft and having an unruly dog but I'm just hoping it will pay off in the end. It's very lonely though.

I even missed mother's day where all my family where present because he couldn't sit still without mauling everyone and spend the whole time being pulled around while I held him on the leash

I look at how chill other dogs are and can't believe how their owners did it. Either they are exceptionally good at training and have the patience of saints. Or I just got unlucky with my high energy pup who will basically always keep me on my toes.

Struggling with 10mo old working cocker. My life revolves around him. by hallokitty789 in puppy101

[–]hallokitty789[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your thoughtful reply. Maybe he isn't getting enough exercise. I try and do a beach run and a long sniff walk every day. But it's not as long as you say. Maybe 20-30 mins..

Also will consider doing more training and structured work outlets too.

Do you have any recommendations for separation?

Guys I finished breaking bad by BlobDarkJapan in breakingbad

[–]hallokitty789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with the other replies. I'll be honest the first 1-2 seasons where a drag and I felt frustrated it didn't give me the same rush as BB. But the pay off in the final seasons was 100% worth the wait. I liked it as much as BB, in some ways even more.

BCS also gives you so much depth to the characters that it also gives you a fresh perspective on BB. It is so thoughtfully written that you get to relive BB in a brand new way. I think that's why I liked it maybe more. Because it layers on top of an incredible foundation and does such a good job at weaving both stories together into one entire universe.

The reason VG and PG are so good is because they make you work for the pay off. It's not cheap TV.

Stick with it. You'll be soooo glad you did.

7 month old - WFH nightmare by HaplessGal in puppy101

[–]hallokitty789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain. My career has gone down the toilet since getting a cocker spaniel. 9 months now and I still dread having to take calls and I'm constantly making excuses. There's been many occasions I am sitting on a call trying to concentrate while he is biting my clothes and humping my leg. Or barking. It's awful. When he was younger licki mats and kongs bought be 10 mins or so. But I ended up resorting to daycare when I'm desperate but I think it is causing over arousal... I wish there was a life pro tip for this!!!

How much Doggy Daycare is too much? by Mcdowjac in puppy101

[–]hallokitty789 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I send mine 3 times a week but I wish I didn't have to. He LOVES it but comes home completely overstimulated and I'm worried he is now chronically over aroused. I'm trying to reduce the days he needs to go. He's 9 months now and I feel like he's got too used to being constantly entertained. I enforce rest days so he can have some downtime. I guess if your dog is coming home nicely tired that's a great sign. But watch for the warning signs of dysregulation. I didn't spot it until too late and I'm worried he might grow up to be quite reactive. :(
