She’s like a draft in nature-mellow, careful and yet does have a tendency to try and misbehave because she knows just how strong she is. Pity she’s so old though, workouts make her muscles hurt, otherwise I probably would’ve had a chance to ride her more often.

That doesn’t normally bother me, unless they start acting like a know-it-all or interrupting your stories and facts to say some meaningless unrelated crap about the horses. For example: “I was on a trail ride once and the horse wouldn’t walk through the creek.” “Oh yeah horses -“ “He obviously didn’t wanna get wet.” “...if you’d let me finish you’d know horses have terrible depth perception.” “Well he probably also didn’t wanna get wet. He hates water. I could tell.” Or: “So I was with my horse -“ “I saw a horse once!” “...ok great. So I was grooming him -“ “Horses are beautiful.” “...yeah. So I was saying -“ “I’d really like to ride some day.”

2:22 My friend acts like that too! Like, she'll say "I've ridden before! I was galloping!" Like gurl, riding is NOT about being able to sit on a horse without falling off! Riding is about being able to control and understand a horse, and sometimes straight-up expect getting thrown off. Edit: Even though I've kept on telling her she can't ride (I've seen her riding she does everything wrong.) she still gets offended and still keeps saying that "I'm also a rider." I'm getting so enraged at her sometimes.
