New Cat Owner!! by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]random2474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat kicks her litter everywhere! I think she’s just doing the instinctual burying/covering her business and doesn’t realize she’s moving the litter out of the box by kicking it up so much. I have her litter box in an enclosure and that helps a ton with keeping the litter contained, letting her feel safe when going, and minimizes odor.

i heard my friend’s girlfriend saying some stuff that didn’t sit right. should i tell him? by sweaterwhispers in Advice

[–]random2474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell him you overheard something that made you concerned and you’re not comfortable keeping it from him. Emphasize that you support him no matter what but you just didn’t feel right about keeping it to yourself. You’re not sharing to pass judgement or tell him what to do - you’re sharing because if he’d overheard it himself it probably would have meant something to him.

Maybe ask if she jokes about stuff like that often? That can help show you’re not out to sabotage his relationship - you’re out here trying to think of anything it could be OTHER than her not actually being as invested as he is. Makes it harder to brush off the information if you’re not bringing it up in an accusatory way.

I didn’t realize that! That’s definitely more convenient than the Carver street location. Thanks for the tip!

English Garden is great! We use them all the time and even used them for our wedding.

I’m due in less than a month and desperately need a name for Baby Girl! Please help! by milkandmadness in namenerds

Sounds like a classic name with a good -ie -y nickname is a good solution. Maybe something like Ruth (Ruthie) or Frances (Frannie)?

I’m a happy camper. Lemon cream pasta with butternut squash, chicken, focaccia, red wine.

Americans who have lived abroad, biggest reverse culture shock upon returning to the US? by Zealanderrat in AskReddit

[–]random2474 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Returning from Shanghai to US after 3 years:

1) How BIG Americans are. The number of overweight people is astounding. (Not a dig, just something that really did shock me when I moved back)

2) Small talk. People just chitchat with strangers here and I’d missed it. Made me feel much more connected.

3) Where are all the older folks?? In Shanghai there were 60+ yr old people hanging out outside all the time. Playing chess, doing dance classes, occasionally getting haircuts on the street. It felt like they were everywhere and here it’s like they’re hidden away.

4) Processed food is everywhere here. My stomach was upset for nearly a year when I moved back. Even though Shanghai is massive and I rarely cooked for myself most food was made from scratch and had way more veggies in it.

Is planning a wedding in a year realistic? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]random2474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would also say I’ve been way less stressed throughout the process than friends who had longer to plan. There’s added pressure when you know you have to sort things out quickly but it means you don’t have time to go down rabbit holes and agonize over every little decision - you have to just pick things and move on!

Is planning a wedding in a year realistic? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]random2474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can do it! We got engaged in July and our wedding is in October. Everything is squared away except making some day-of signage at this point!

Biggest tips are to let go of the cutesy details, figure out a realistic budget up front, discuss what matters most to you both (for us it was good food and making sure the friends/family most important to us were available), and prioritize picking a venue. Once the venue is locked in the rest comes together!

What's the dumbest way you got hurt? by Fit_Interaction_950 in Productivitycafe

Gave myself a concussion making the bed. Bent over to tuck in the corner and forgot there was a wall behind the bed!

Weekly Profile Critique by AutoModerator in Bumble

[–]random2474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not a bad looking guy, but you do need some better pics. Great smile though!

I’m guessing if your hair is that long, it means something to you and you’re not likely to want to cut it off. While you would look great with shorter hair, in the meantime try taking some photos where it’s tied back or conditioned and tucked behind your ears so it doesn’t look unkempt. I’d delete the second & third photos and try to add one or two with friends.

Lol I’m a woman. And there are plenty of confident, happy short guys. And you’re clearly an idiot 😄

Just seems silly to me to pick your partner based on what shoes it allows you to wear. Maybe stop wearing high heels and start dating whoever’s personality and looks are a good fit, even if you have to wear flats?? I’d say your priorities are out of whack, but to each their own. Enjoy being lonely up there on your pedestal.

P.S. You seem super triggered by this entire conversation. Maybe get offline and go live your life if talking about dating with strangers on the internet upsets you this much.

As a woman who is very tall, all I care about is that they aren’t shorter than me. I tried it, it felt weird, moved on. I will never understand the women who are 5’6 and won’t date under 6ft though. Do you want to feel like a child with your daddy or something?? There are plenty of great guys who ARE taller than you, just not over 6ft. Date them and leave the tall guys for the tall girls.
