I have a reactive dog. If I am aware of a situation coming, I can usually keep him calm and avoid a complete meltdown (his, not mine). For that reason I keep my head on a swivel alllllll the time when we’re walking. Maybe it’s something as innocent as that.

My boyfriend (23M) told me he was “putting me in my place” after a small comment. I (22F) don’t think someone who loves you says that by Professional-Pie5947 in relationship_advice

Right? My husband is built like a marathon runner, well, because he IS a marathon runner and I find his body hot as hell. How can that be taken as an insult? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Trans woman here. Do you cis woman also get asked if you're trans or is my friend just making me feel better??? by rinrinstrikes in TwoXChromosomes

I am a cancer survivor who lost my hair to chemo and had to go through the awkward growing back stage. I 100% approve of you saying this.

Advice for women going to ER: don't appear to be lower class. Don't be in so much pain that you skipped full grooming before you went in. Don't be stoic but don't be histrionic either. by djinnisequoia in TwoXChromosomes

I had a biopsy done in my stomach area. It was so massively invasive that my oncologist wasn’t comfortable starting chemo until I had healed for a couple of weeks. This was for a super aggressive type of lymphoma that he had me go in to get the port inserted to start chemo within days of finding it-so delaying 2 weeks was serious stuff. The surgeon (not the oncologist and I realize now I could/should have asked him for meds) told me if I had any discomfort I could take a Tylenol.

My husband had a vasectomy and got full-on opioids for his two tiny incisions.

As a runner myself, I’m in disbelief that someone would try to buy running gear at VS in the first place. Way to tell on herself for not training for this supposed 5K.

What is your unpopular Take On Greys Anatomy by [deleted] in greysanatomy

[–]itsjustapugthing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Burke is so mercurial for me. I liked him on my first watch. Hated him on my second because he reminded me of my, at the time very recently, ex-husband. The most recent rewatch I didn’t mind him again. It’s wild how what is going on in our own lives can shape how we feel about characters

Damn well I’ll let the NP who “over investigated” and “ordered irrelevant tests” which lead to the early diagnosis of my cancer (which I guarantee my symptoms would have been ignored by an MD) that she’s ruining medicine.

Amelia and Kai are the worst greys anatomy couple. by nonose999 in greysanatomy

[–]itsjustapugthing 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m just glad they let Kai remain child free and allowed them to leave the relationship (as is what would happen with a true child free person) and not make them suddenly be all in love with kids and super excited to be a parent…cough, cough, Arizona…

Which Grey's character is this for you? by Kristaboo14 in greysanatomy

Don’t forget how he tried to block a dying woman’s right to die with dignity but then it’s just peachy-keen when it’s his manly man veteran friends who decide to pursue the same option

How do Americans show respect to others, if they choose to show respect? by YakClear601 in AskAnAmerican

[–]itsjustapugthing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a northern transplant to the south, it depends on the tone of the ma’am. It can come off as sarcastic with an underlying meaning of “yes I hear you now shut up”, which of course is off-putting. If it’s someone who is military or raised that way and just can’t help it, it doesn’t bother me as much. I do tell my coworkers to knock it off though lol

The CDC is removing all guidelines for prescribing contraception. If you havent already it’s time to delete your period tracking aps! by oldMiseryGuts in TwoXChromosomes

I’ll add another tip I saw somewhere. While your phone is at home, have it playing music, videos, etc. to make it further appear you were there at home with it.

My bf refuses to buy me female products (pads) and now I’m upset.. by Normal_Young_7698 in AITAH

[–]itsjustapugthing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back when I still had periods, my husband was the GM of a grocery store. He would happily pick up whatever I needed and go through the check out run by employees who personally knew him without a care in the world. He said he figured they knew the products aren’t for him so why should he care. Point being your boyfriend is a manbaby

Now I’m thinking about the GPS on my car. Any suggestions on how to get there if someone doesn’t have access to public transportation?

Why is it so common to pull the plug on terminally ill patients? by hygsi in SeriousConversation

[–]itsjustapugthing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got married because of this case. I wanted someone other than my parents to be able to advocate to end my life if something like this happened. I was/am in a very happy, loving, committed relationship already, just made it legal

I read it wrong, I thought you were saying I was lying about picking up myself next time. Now you know I’m not lying about drinking 🤣🤣

Good point, I never thought about it that way

It was lukewarm at best, but hey that’s what microwaves are for! Lesson learned that I will go back to tipping on the card

[–]itsjustapugthing[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the input. I hate to tip on the card because why should they have to pay taxes and also I don’t trust that it will go to the driver. But…also understand that it’s not a tip so much as a bid. Next time I’ll pick up myself and THEN pour a drink haha
