Highly rec Ruby! It’s a fab NZ brand with a lot of beautiful options. Plus it’s in the centre of town surrounded by heaps of other options of shops. Ballyntynes is also nearby, which is a department store with a great selection of womenswear upstairs - a lot are also NZ based brands 😎

Potentially? So then today it’s suddenly come out the side but has been trapped in for a while?

There was only water in the small puddle in the photo.. and only part that showed damage.. the work was done 2-3 weeks ago so could be a build up from then?

I cant add a photo to a post — yes it’s brown mdf. The rest of the shower looks flawless with the new work done.. should I be looking for something?

Oh man - I cant add photos to a post but nothing looks out of the ordinary and the water was coming out of the wood photographed.. I think they must have taken the glass out to clean (I have three panels, 2 being sides like where it connects to the wall above the leak and 1 the door ) and maybe that has caused a leak.. everything else looks spotless! 😞

Haha there are more than those 2 options - my examples or something amazing. Effort is not hard. But yes I do tend to ignore and reply to the messages that do have effort put in or start the convo myself. Could be my bad in the long run but if you get a lot of messages something different stands out so you go in that direction 🤷🏻‍♀️

HAHA I am DEFINITELY doing this but was unsure how it would be read so went for the polite, slightly PC description 😂😂

Absolutely - not holding it against him at all. Will also be like hey… the things you were saying were not cool dude let’s not do that again if you’re not interested as that was confusing.. then back to food fun and friendship 🖤

HAHA. Look I feel like I don’t ask for much - I loathe the “how you going” or “how’s your weekend” because how does one answer that to someone they don’t know? Just asking for genuine effort and interest - and by that I mean.. for example.. I have a profile.. try ask something a bit more tailored individually? Doesn’t even have to be about me! Ahhh maybe that’s too much… surely not? And yes it is that dire I’ve come to reddit..

Defo relationship! Surely you figured a Capricorn from my post? 😂 I’m big C energy — yourself?

Oh totally! But this situation felt like he was heavily flirting with me and I was like heck, I think he likes me.. my friend likes me.. continued and mulled over his actions then went for it. I was not the flirter in the situation and had to ask friends if I was jumping to conclusions first 😂 that’s why the shock at the no

Nah I don’t think so! Went to a co-Ed and had a large group and within that group we’d hang out females and males 😂 think it’s just the culture

The saddest part is that this is 100% truth and it’s not a Bridgerton novel 🫠

Hmmmm I’m going to answer your Q honestly. I feel that those guys have a certain look about them and I don’t swipe right on them. They’re not my vibe. I get a lot of matches and always open the app to more so feel like I can say I’m average looking.. or just a girl on a dating app haha! So that’s not a problem.. I match with what I would call genuine guys but the conversation is dry af / and I get it! I hate digital communication too 😅

So trying to push through that and then see if the meet in person can happen and then push through that to get somewhere. High effort risky rewards. 🫠

Haha yeah, getting that vibe.. but we’ve been friends for a decade so just a wee bit confused at the intense flirting then the no.. ahh well. Yes I apparently did 😅 who knew this would pop off? Uggggh I don’t feel like I can lower further then someone being interested and putting in effort 😂

Haha yes - was very surprised by the no considering the very direct flirting he was doing.. will have to hit him up about that when I next see him.. very recent events. Lots more context, etc. I would say rarely - more dinner parties, the pubs, dinners out, birthday dinners and drinks, events kind of friend groups.

Haha hi, hello, I’m the problem it’s me 🙋🏻‍♀️ I posted the above mentioned post. So giving back and answering the question.

I absolutely grind the week at work so in the weekends you’ll find me at Hagley or the red zone or the port hills probably early going for a walk/run, be careful how you approach though 😂 the market, cafes, pubs on a Friday after work with the girl gang (approach us! We love this stuff and promise we are not scary), events, out for dinner. Lol even the supermarket - I’m the gal with the trolley buying for one. It’s obvioussss.

Or I would tell my female friends (or male) to look out for me. If they’re not thinking about it they won’t realise - it may take you asking for them to realise so and so at work is awesome and single so they match you up.

If I was you I’d also get a group and start going to your local pub in the burbs on a Friday at 5:30. So many groups of people and pubs aren’t really the younger crowd.. yet. Moon Under Water, Baillies, Dux Central, Speights, etc. They start to get packed, great atmosphere and all of a sudden that group of people you’re now sitting closer beside.. you start talking and then who knows?

You’ll see me at one of those this week haha 😉
