There are SO many red flags here--"G" sounds EXACTLY like my ex-husband. Same mood swings, same name-calling and emotional abuse, same everything. Picking on your friends is a emotional abuse tactic as well; it's an attempt to isolate you from other people and make you emotionally dependent on him. Same immaturity whenever I said "no" to the simplest thing, like a request to come over to his house when we were dating. And I'll bet he accuses you of cheating on him or sleeping around all the time too. My ex used to claim that he had PROOF i was cheating so I might as well 'fess up to it. I never did, but it still broke my heart to hear him say that.<BR/>Trust me on this--one day, you will realize that love isn't enough to put up with this garbage. You will want him and his crap and his issues out of your life, and you will no longer feel the "but i loooooove him!" twinges that you feel now. He will push you over the edge and that will be it. <BR/>whoo. God. I vented. Sorry about that! :-) <BR/>I do love your blog! Your barn sounds like so much fun and i LOVE how far you and Possum have come!Serenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050205666743076866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4952050352237571556.post-72848512151705813532008-09-17T13:14:00.000-07:002008-09-17T13:14:00.000-07:00Ok Stephanie, I was able to look at the picture mo...Ok Stephanie, I was able to look at the picture more closely and confirmed my suspicision of what he "bit" is. It's actually a mechanical jumping hack with a loose ring snaffle. This is to add nose pressure along with a regular snaffle in the mouth. In an interview Meredith stated that it did wonders for his control and comfort guiding to and over the jumps. It certainly is not traditional, but in the right hands it can also work. I would say that Meredith is qualified. Hope this helps to clarify. But this combination would certainly be illegial in ANY hunter or equitation ring.sidetrackedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16646438998655943806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4952050352237571556.post-8632075430390954392008-09-17T08:44:00.000-07:002008-09-17T08:44:00.000-07:00Stephanie,I emailed you back about the bit in ques...Stephanie,<BR/><BR/>I emailed you back about the bit in question.
