Is it just me who has that wish to go back to being a child when it was acceptable to go into the stable when your horse was laying down and stroke them and cuddle up to them.

Just wish I could do that now! But as an adult and at this time at night it may be frowned upon but horses have such a great way of making you smile and making everything seem so much better. Something so therapeutic about them that it seems such a long wait till the morning before I can get my fix
 
Totally acceptable to do that I think!

I had a bad day last week, my OH had been down to feed them in the morning and I was on and off a bit weepy (possible horsey withdrawal), then we went to see them in the eve and I just love rubbing my hand in their fluffiness and watching them eat their hay, it makes everything better,especially my little companion pony who is just so extra cute and has no such things as bad moods and stroppiness unlike the biggun! I do love my big pony too though, we understand each other :-)
 
My girl turns her head towards me and will often nuzzle me, sometimes, she'll just stand and rest her head on my shoulder and blow gently on me! Love her so much, she and our other nag make the sh*** times easier :)
 
Had a rubbish day today, driving home moody as anything, went to see the horse and now all better :D he's on box rest I think his bad mood cheered me up. Naughty mummy finding pleasure in his unhappiness hehe
 
Too true. Nothing I like better than going outside in the field when they are lying down and sitting with them. Both of them will rest their heads on my lap. I don't give a monkeys fiddle if it's not the done thing, it's absolutely bliss and so therapeutic.
 
Oh I love leaving work going to muck out and give my girly kisses and cuddles n scratching her fav spot watching her almost melt with pleasure makes me smile
After a busy day at work its therapy to go to stables for your horsey fix
 
they really do don't they :) and I wouldn't give a fig about it being frowned upon.

I remember years and years ago a friend was out hacking and had one of those moments where you get overcome with love and fling your arms round their neck and say sloppy things as you ride along...then she noticed a boy she fancied from school was walking behind her - the was mortified!! I always do a quick check around me before I do that now :D
 
Totally agree! The thought if finishing work and going straight home really does not appeal to me, have to have my yard time to release all the stresses of the day and give my big girl a cuddle!
I don't know how I would cope if i didn't have a horse and a hobby!
 
I don't know how I've got through so much without them. When I was at uni I moved away and hardly saw them. I always wondered how I'd cope with them and a full time job since couldn't do them at uni. Quickly realised that it's the other way round. I wouldn't be anle to do my full time job without them. I'd lose my sanity. My smallest horse comes up to me when his in the field and stands with his head in my lap letting me stroke him. Under normal circumstances he hates being touched and groomed. Makes it all the more special. So glad I'm not the only one.

Click to expand...

can I ask why it is no longer acceptable??
is it leaving the family to go?

I spend as much time as I can with my horse and a few times have caught him lying down so I do go in and sit with him, as I am lucky to spend such quality time with him I don't feel the need to go back down when it is late, but if I did I would
but then I live alone so it wouldn't affect anyone else :) (another reason I love living alone)
 
i still go into my horses stable and lie down with him and cuddle him at 22:o
from a young childi have had social anxiety disorder,agoraphobia and depression and after leaving there was a few years i basically never left the house until me and my sister decided to buy a horse,and because of him i am out everyday and getting more confidence.
