my girlfriend is very independent. it rules. we actually have time apart without the guilt.

7/14/2008 4:17:27 PM

now i'm guilty of talking on the phone when i drive but that's just because that's the only time i have to talk on the phone...

i don't talk on the phone at work and i hardly ever answer my phone once i'm at home...unless it's my parents or somebody i just really want to talk to...


i probably don't spend more than 30 minutes a month on my phone that's not in the car...

besides...that's usually the only time i think about talking to anybody....

when i'm at home...that's my time

i hate the mall. i do love target. but when we go to target together i don't drag him around. UNLESS he goes to the video games then i am allowed to go to the clothes.

and i don't BEG someone to come with me places, but i just like spending time with my boyfriend and since we're really busy and have opposite schedules and live in different cities, if i ask him to come to the grocery store or target or want to tag along with him its because its one of the few opportunities we might have to hang out. and like i said i'm busy and he's busy so its often better to kill two birds with one stone...errands + hanging out.

7/14/2008 4:19:41 PM

Guys can walk into target, get what they need, and walk out.

Women walk into Target, get what they need, then spend an hour finding all kinds of other shit they "need"

7/14/2008 4:20:48 PM

what i need is not any kind of woman that posted in this thread.

7/14/2008 4:21:42 PM

i don't mind going anywhere with a girl, including shopping, as long as she is putting out and has her own money to waste.

see, now that's different. You guys already have your space from each other, so of course when you finally do get to see each other you want to do everything together.

having my girlfriend move in with me was what killed our relationship, imo. for the 6 months she lived in Raleigh, everything was awesome. when she moved to Greensboro, but we still had our own apartments, it was still good but started to get tense. when we moved in together, it went downhill fast. the problem was i wanted my space, and she also wanted my space.

actually, I think it's more of an example why it makes MORE sense to live with someone before you marry them. Imagine if i bought the ring, shelled out all the money for a wedding, bought a house, only to discover after a year of living together that it wasn't going to work.

7/14/2008 4:31:44 PM

i think that's just silly...

because if you were married and couldn't walk away from it so easily then you would be much more inclined to do the grown up thing and make it work

7/14/2008 4:33:20 PM

dude...she didn't cheat on you because you lived together...

she cheated on you because she's a psychopathic whore...

7/14/2008 4:34:16 PM

should have did a better job laying the pipe

7/14/2008 4:34:21 PM

i agree its more of a reason to live with someone before getting married...you need to make sure you can tolerate spending many consecutive days together, tolerate living habits, etc...don't rush into marriage without finding out things like that to make sure you're compatible

7/14/2008 4:34:27 PM

try before you buy, thats my theory

and furthermore, "making it work" isn't always the adult thing to do. you shouldn't have to "make a marriage work". sometimes the adult thing to do is cut your losses and move on, rather than wasting years of your life and your sanity on something that is going to fail anyway.

7/14/2008 4:35:31 PM

all i have to say, and i will say it again and again and again, is that if an attraction girl over 25 doesn't have a man or someone knocks the boots, thats raises a red flag in my book. not that it will prove to mean something bad, but it just does.

I go to the movies alone, i go to the bathroom alone, I do my shopping alone and i can even tie my own shoes like a fucking adult!
I don't understand the need to have people around you constantly and talking constantly. If I don't get my alone time or my "ass sitting" time I get extremely grouchy and will become a hermit until my need is filled.

of course you have to make a marriage work...life doesn't all of a sudden become rainbows and unicorns just because you get married...but it's a lot more appealing to work through bullshit that really isn't as detrimental to the relationship as it seems when you can't just pack your shit up one day and leave if things are getting tough...

besides...i am a firm believer that anybody can play the role they need to play long enough to get what they want...living with somebody doesn't change that...

if i wanted a boyfriend or just wanted to be a whore i could have all these things before i went to bed tonight....

of course...however that doesnt mean you shouldnt do some "compatibility tests" before you decide to get married...if more people took their time and tried to find the right person before tying the knot, we might not have such a gigantic divorce rate in this country

marriage isn't easy, theres going to be bumps in the road, but that doesnt mean you shouldnt test drive it and make sure the bumps are sustainable before you get locked into the lease /car analogy
