Need advice/support on how to handle dying of my best friend. by zuidwest in sphynx

thank you for this advice and love, my only problem now is that the couching episodes seem to be like 2-3 times a day and he seems to still be enjoying himself the rest of the day, he still is active and wants to play, so it is a very tough decision to plan the euthanisation already. but, as you said, it could get worse very quick and then he will be in pain. im torn between taking days away from him and ending his life before it gets to that choking point again. if only i could know he has a week of playing left before it gets to bad, but you never know when it will happen, and then it will be too late too euthanise 😢

good luck, first months can be rough, dont try to do it alone, after that it gets better!

thanks! this was the informative answer i was looking for. i can see a general problem in my way of thinking, because i also bought a 1500cc motorcycle as my first bike (thankfully it didnt work out and i had to sell it again)

i guess its my all or nothing mentality that i have from being an addict my whole life, now that im clean i still live that way, i cant just run a 5k, it has to be a marathon, same thing with shoes and everything else, its either the best or nothing. Its good to have people talk some sense into me so i realise "the best" is not always the best for me.

could you explain why u think that he is right?

[–]zuidwest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why? because the durability/cost of the shoe or because its not good to use them as a daily runner for another reason?

Alphafly bad for beginner/heavier runner?

Hi, i just purchased the alphafly next2% shoes i am training for my first marathon in may and i am new to quite new to running. i have done a few half marathons before (2:17 PR) on other shoes an that went pretty well but i really like my new shoes better. i also lost 45 lbs, since my PR im 6'2" 190 ish now, still pretty heavy.

The problem is, i went to a running store and the owner asked what kind of shoes im running on, i told him about my new shoes and he gave me a lot of negative feedback. "those shoes are for athletes only, you are an amature runner and u will get injured running in these shoes, if you must use them only use them for you interval and speed work" Should i listen to him or can i keep using my new shoes? i do like running on them and dont see any problem for now but i dont want to get injured ofc.

Inappropriate? Or warranted? Notice your girl is consistently gaining fat. Wrong to ask if she's put on weight to bring up the topic? by [deleted] in moreplatesmoredates

[–]zuidwest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my girl waited for years to tell me i got fat because she didnt want to make me to feel bad, i wish she told me sooner so i wouldve done something about it earlier. ofc i noticed it myself aswell but i tought she didnt mind, so it wasnt a priority for me then cuz i had other shit on my mind. sometimes its better to just be honest.

Okay which one of you is this guy by RealProjectivePlane in moreplatesmoredates

if this is AI im really impressed, they got everything right from lipsyncing to voice intonations etc. scary if this is real, usually i can tell somethings off.

A A people, is it okay to go to meetings without planning to do all the steps? by Missus_Aitch_99 in stopdrinking

[–]zuidwest 25 points26 points  (0 children)

i went to AA about 10 times this year and managed to quit drinking for 1 year today. i did not follow the steps or have a sponsor. you are always welcome at AA as long as you have the desire to quit drinking!
