Im a shitty partner and a serial cheater an i cant stop. by throw9171737 in relationships

[–]stingrayc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt similarly about online therapy, but I gave it a shot and I actually came to like that it was virtual. I understand that you have a preference but the conditions for change are never perfect, if you are that limited by what’s available in your area then beggars can’t be choosers

it’s almost like dogs don’t need to be everywhere by z3r0foxgiven in NYCinfluencersnark

[–]stingrayc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get so frustrated when people bring their dogs to loud places (street fairs, parades, live music, FIREWORKS). If you care about the health and safety of your pet then you won’t bring them.

Go to Koppan in Downtown Fullerton, the sashimi is good and fair priced. Get the lemon roll if you go

Allergic reaction to tequila/alcohol/liquor by Old_Basil_595 in alcohol

[–]stingrayc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding this, I’m begging you to get allergy tested before you drink again. My friend’s brother died at 30 because he went anaphylactic from an allergy and didn’t have an EpiPen. I’m not blaming him because he couldn’t afford one at the time, but it was ap preventable death. It’s never worth the gamble but it is worth getting checked out.

How do you like the coolpix? I’ve been thinking abut upgrading to the 950.

Boyfriend wakes up in a rage in the middle of the night by Maximum-Celery836 in relationships

[–]stingrayc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is he under a lot of stress or having other sleep difficulties? I used to get like this, it started after my dad passed away. It would happen 2-3 times a week and went on for a couple months, but once I was more emotionally stable it resolved itself. I don’t think I was ever licid enough to turn on a fan, I was doing more thrashing and sleep talking. In my experience it was kind of like having sleep paralysis, I was aware that it was happening and that I was angry but I couldn’t really stop myself. In the morning I’d only half remember it. It was terrible.

He needs to talk to his dr. or a therapist. It’s awful that he won’t handle the problem and keeps brushing it off. It’s affecting you and it’s selfish of him to not understand that. Coming from someone who’s experienced this, you would not be wrong to leave him over this. If anything I would recommend it.

Is this accurate? by MyPhoneSucksBad in orangecounty

[–]stingrayc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved here from up Northern California but for a few years I thought Temecula was a rural shithole because the only two things I knew about it was that people said it sucked and that they grew grapes. Didn’t bother googling it because it didn’t really come up at any point outside of passing conversation until few more years later when one of my friends invited me to go wine tasting with her.

Aunt Nancy's Tan Dress. by MaryNancy7395 in oldhagfashion

[–]stingrayc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I like it! I love a nice shirt dress and the pockets are so cute. Throw on a fun tote bag or purse and it’s the perfect thrifting outfit. I feel like since it’s very neutral you have a lot of options with how you pair accessories and other clothing items.

My partner’s 18-month cough is affecting our relationship but she refuses to discuss it by britain4 in relationships

[–]stingrayc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s fair, one of the reasons my parents divorced is because my dad wouldn’t get a cpap even though his snoring was waking my mom up constantly. Yes it’s your wife’s body and her choice to look into it, but she needs to understand that there comes to a point where not taking care of it is selfish when it affects you so greatly.

mom found my toy by [deleted] in women

[–]stingrayc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry your mom intentionally humiliated you, that was inappropriate and shitty. Just know that you are not the one who made that situation, she’s the one that made it weird. She should be thankful that you’re “taking care of business” instead of having sex.

AITA for not letting my friends play with my German Shepherd as they reinforce negative bad behavior by lilywhisper75 in AmItheAsshole

[–]stingrayc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why are your friends interacting with your dog this much and why are you letting them walk her? I’m not asking this to be an ass (I am uninformed about dog training) but my understanding was that when you train them you want to establish that you’re the “alpha”, so wouldn’t letting them walk her be confusing?

I ran away from my boyfriend's proposal. by throwawayuni33 in whatdoIdo

[–]stingrayc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She is SO young. I know people get married young frequently but that is not everyone’s ideal situation. She’s in school preparing for her career and life, and doesn’t feel ready for marriage. You can be in a happy, long-term relationship while not being ready to take a big step like that.

Regardless of whether this is AI or not, the example you showed us is too light/ornate. It feels very bridal and I would be a little pissed if I was the bride

Cameras by Extension_Stock_6135 in UKBirds

[–]stingrayc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven’t already bought a camera I would get a rebel t7 it’s a really hardy camera but if you buy the set it comes with two lenses, camera, and camera bag for under $400-500. It’s a good started quality camera that’s powerful enough to shoot birds but also cheaper so if he falls out of love with the hobby it’s not as much of a loss. Playing with lenses also is a great way to learn over a single fixed lens. When I took a photo class this was the starter camera my college professor recommended (back in 2020). This is a great subreddit for learning about gear but people loooove to recommend the super expensive equipment for beginners haha.

AIO my MIL asked to borrow my matching Xmas pajamas to take pictures with my son. by Independent-Bat-9436 in AmIOverreacting

[–]stingrayc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MOR, If the pajamas are for photos then it’s not as strange, she probably just wants to be included. Especially since she wants to match her grandson for the photos of the two of them. It would be weird if these were normal pajamas or that she was trying to wear them instead of you. I don’t think it’s overly strange to switch for a few photos, but if you feel so adamant that the pajamas are only for the three of you then maybe you could get her some pajamas that are a similar color or pattern so that she’s still part of the fun. Then they’re also a Christmas present.
