23 [F4F] California - Seeking Authentic Connection

Howdy!! My name is Rio and I love women so fucking much. I am open to all sorts of connections, casual, friendly, or committed and deep. Anything that is genuine, open and honest. My personal preference is to not date multiple people at a time, if I feel a connection I want to explore with somebody, any flirting or anything with anyone else will stop, it is just my personal preference and it says nothing of my expectations of that person to commit to me. Meaning, just because I invest into only one romantic relationship, does not mean that person has to do the same for me, unless we have that talk and agree to be committed. Does that make sense? I hope it makes sense lol.

I would really love to date someone who is in California. I love California!! I've always lived here and it just feels like home. I'm 5'8, Caucasian, and honestly skinny but I am working on that, I have started working out and strength training to improve my physique and to look and feel strong. I am masc leaning and always have been, however I refuse to put myself in a box in terms of my expression. There are times I enjoy make up and stuff like that. I am autistic and have ADHD. Mental health is a priority for me, as is open and honest communication. I have worked very hard to love myself before getting into a relationship, I am at a point mentally that I feel very confident in my ability to be a loving and caring partner.

My style is very alternative (think 90s grunge lol) but again I do not feel the need to put myself in that box, and that box alone. I am a huge animal lover, I have 2 dogs and a cat. I have my own business where I board and train dogs. I want the type of relationship where we raise each other up, instead of dragging each other down. For me, having a real life outside of a relationship is vital, balance in life is key. I need someone who has personal goals for themselves and hopes and dreams! I love hiking, drawing, reading, true crime, animation and other stuff I just can't list them all. Oh, I'm also starting college in January, most likely for a Criminology degree :).

If I am interesting to you, reach out! I'd love to chat. And as mentioned previously, I love women. There are so many types of women I am attracted to it would be damn near impossible to list it here.

Edit: forgot to say, I don't really have any age preference, I do prefer older but it's not a deal breaker at all if you are younger. No, you're probably not too old for me. Older women are so fucking gorgeous.

Owner has not picked up dogs, has not communicated at all for this sit. What do I do?

Good God, me again. I accepted a new, one time client almost 2 weeks ago, she reached out last minute (about 4 days before the sit) and asked to book July 20th-27th. I had availability and she had good client profile reviews and reviews saying how well behaved her dogs are. She clearly is a very regular user of Rover, however didn't have any regular sitters due to travel. She drops off her dogs on time, they are very well behaved and well cared for, she drove a brand new Mercedes and I was like "oh cool, this won't be an issue"

She drops them off and it's fine. After she leaves she messages shortly after and says "I'm sorry, I have to extend until Wednesday" she had mentioned possibly needing an extension until Wednesday before even dropping off the dogs, she had been transparent about that so I didn't think much of it and just said "I can extend, but you have to request 2 more days on Rover so I can accept that sit too"

And that's when I stopped hearing from her. She never added the extra days. I've sent daily pictures of her dogs, updates no response. He dogs are supposed to be picked up tomorrow, there is absolutely NO communication from her whatsoever. I told her I would send pictures when she dropped off and she seemed appreciative and happy, she hasn't even opened a single message of mine. Hasn't looked at a single photo. I'm so confused, they seemed like typical very loved dogs. Very expensive beds, food, brand new toys, etc. this woman was responding very well up until she dropped them off and I haven't heard from her at all. I thought maybe she just didn't have wifi? But they're supposed to be picked up TOMORROW which dog parent is this comfortable not communicating? And now, because the sit has ended on Rover, I'm not ever sure if my messages are reaching her!! I mandate emergency contacts for these situations, turns out the emergency contact she wrote down is just her number. What do I do? Do I wait and see if she picks up some time tomorrow? Honestly I'm so frustrated at this.

ZANA CHILLS CONTAIN FENT

So, I've been doing Kratom and 7oh for about 4 years and I've been a very heavy user. Spent easily 10s of thousands on Kratom, never made a day without it. Several months ago I entered an out patient rehab for Kratom. Well strangely enough, I keep testing positive for Fentanyl, I test positive for Fent more often than I test positive for Kratom. I think I've only had 4 drug tests have no Fent in the 7 months I've been in rehab. But I don't take Fentanyl. I assumed it was a false positive type thing due to how common that can be with Fentanyl and never thought much of it.

Until a couple days ago, my counselor pointed out how odd it is I'm still testing positive for Fentanyl consistently, he expressed concern that the Kratom I take may be cut with Fent. I thought that didn't make much sense and wasn't realistic, but he offered Fent test strips for me to test some bottles. So yesterday I tested a bottle, it came back positive for Fent. I couldn't quite believe it and thought it was a fluke. So today, I got 2 bottles from 2 completely different stores and tested those, they both came back positive too. The crazy thing is, I don't take just Zana Chills. Some weeks I was taking other brands (like Kanva) and still testing positive for Fent. Zana Chills for sure contain Fent, but it wouldn't surprise me if other heavy hitting Kratom bottles contain Fent too.

Client Knowingly Gave Me Sick Dog

Please help, yesterday a long term client of mine dropped off their dog for boarding at my house, she is a young (1-2 y/o), very high energy French Bulldog. The day before they dropped her off at my house, they texted to say they took her to the vet for diarrhea and that she was fine and got sent home with probiotics and heartworm (?) meds. I found the choice of medications to be weird, but didn't think anything of it as they had been great clients. They stressed that she wasn't contagious at all.

Well, she has been here since yesterday at 8pm. She woke me up multiple times throughout the night to go potty due to diarrhea, she also had an accident in her crate which has never happened before. Her diarrhea is MUCH more severe than her owners made it out to be, it is completely liquid, and gets everywhere. Her crate was about 2 feet away from my wall, when she pottied in my room, it sprayed everywhere and splattered against my wall and SHOES. Something tells me they knew it was this bad, because when they dropped her off they brought this massive reusable potty pad to go under her crate (they have never done this before), I asked about it and they dodged the question.

Her diarrhea never cleared up, so I texted her owner earlier today to keep her posted on her condition and explain what was going on. The owner said she would contact her vet and get back to me. 3 or 4 hours later, the owner calls me and says that the diarrhea will take a couple more days to clear up, according to the vet, and just to keep her hydrated. Cool, that's fine with me. Well, the owner also sent me a screenshot of a message with the vet assistant that tells a completely different story.

The message from the vet's office specifically says to keep her isolated from other dogs (I have other dogs boarding, as well as my own dogs, which these owners know). It also says that she needs a fecal done. HOW exactly would the owners know that she isn't contagious, if they didn't do a fecal????? I don't know what to do. My own babies could be at risk, I requested to take her to the vet and apparently the vet said it wasn't necessary. What do I do if my own dogs ARE sick??? Why can't people just be honest????? I knew they weren't telling the truth.
