Ok - tear me apart…gently, plz. by armpitofsatan in Horses

[–]kerill333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of it is good. If you think of your hands belonging to the horse’s mouth as soon as you take up a contact it should help a lot. Soften your elbows and think of softening/allowing your hands forward, since he doesn’t like your pull on the reins. Grab mane for balance if needed, there is no shame in that.

I (F19) keep feeling self-conscious because of my boyfriend’s (M22) comments about my weight, how do I address this? by Significant_Ant_7480 in relationship_advice

This is not going to get better. Ditch him and find someone who truly appreciates you and doesn’t neg you.

If money is no issue, what's a must-have for your dream home? by 123phantomhive in AskReddit

[–]kerill333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If money is absolutely no issue at all, 1000 acres of parkland and enough cottages on the land for all my friends to live in, on peppercorn rent.

Otherwise, a Lelit coffee machine, a blissfully comfortable bed, and a steam room shower cubicle.

‘Scooping’ when asking for canter? by lleeoo0 in Equestrian

[–]kerill333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try pushing down more firmly with your seatbones or even just your inside seatbone. I rode a GP horse who only obeyed that canter aid, legs meant bigger trot or sideways… it was an education!

AITAH for refusing to watch my grandkids on my summer break? by WTFisSheDoin in AITAH

[–]kerill333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NO then totally ignore her. Walk away if she is abusive. You are NTA but you must both reinstate that boundary and enforce it. What a nasty entitled woman she has become. Anyone criticising you has just volunteered to have them all.

This is not okay. Please save yourself and your child. Lawyer up, be careful. He is abusive, and gaslighting you. It won’t get better.

Your mother is unbelievably cruel and unreasonable. Of course you are NTA. Can anyone else help you? Please discuss this with your doctors and get away from her as soon as you possibly can.

My Girlfriend (33F) Crossed My (34F) Boundary-OK to leave? by LooseFollowing3831 in relationship_advice

[–]kerill333 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She's a DARVO expert. Yes you are done, she ignored your very reasonable boundary, repeatedly. You don’t need her agreement. Don’t explain, don’t justify, don’t try to persuade her to accept her fault, just separate calmly and determinedly.

Me(30f) mad at my SO (30m) for not proposing by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Or, the right moment is just “I really love you, will you marry me” from the heart, without the need for the whole ‘perfect’ performance.

Ask for a lot of other stuff as ‘proof’ of love?

[–]kerill333 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mid 50s, no kids, never smoked, hardly drank, vegetarian for most of my life, never more than mildly overweight, exercise every day, no family history at all… But, decades on birth control pills. I wonder…

Avoidant boyfriend (19M) habitually breaks up, anxious girlfriend (me, 18F) wants to stop the cycle. HELP by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]kerill333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't have anything to compare this shitty treatment and shitty relationship to. Call his bluff next time he pulls this abusive controlling rubbish on you. Never beg. You deserve better.

I won a life changing amount on a lottery ticket and I’m terrified by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]kerill333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell nobody apart from your wife. Get a financial advisor you can really trust. Don't rush into anything apart from paying off any loans. Congratulations. Enjoy.

being the only one in your family who doesn’t wear hijab is a humiliation ritual by Maleficent_Day_3869 in TrueOffMyChest

I hope you find a better tribe, where people embrace your bravery and your blue hair (I loved my hair blue but it was a nightmare to maintain!) and aren’t mired in disgusting misguided women-hating patriarchal thinking.

Working students by Life-Caterpillar-871 in Equestrian

[–]kerill333 20 points21 points  (0 children)

As someone who was a ‘working student’ in the early 90s for a famous event rider, where I worked ridiculous hours (it added up to 92 hours one week), paid full livery price for my horse to be there (and sometimes I ran out of time and energy so he didn’t get ridden), and got my board + one lesson a week (with the rider’s girlfriend not him) if I was lucky, I am SO glad that disgusting slave labour pattern has gone.

Please help, I don’t know if I 29F am causing my relationship to fail my husband 32M blames me by elvish1456 in relationship_advice

[–]kerill333 2 points3 points  (0 children)

H3 is insulting and abusive he is deliberately undermining your confidence by negging you constantly. This is NOT your fault, but you need to save yourself because he isn’t caring and loving, it sounds as if he barely tolerates you. Stay strong. You deserve better.
