I find it to be a delicate topic that most people feel quite passionate about. In my experience there are usually no winners and everyone goes home pissed off.
So I try to avoid it, but find it entertaining watching people try to convince each other with claims of "evidence" that are a bunch of malarcky.
I honestly don't know why anyone bothers to argue these points. No one has all of the answers and it is highly unlikely that anyone will ever convince you to change your beliefs. They are too ingrained in who you are.
A wedding band won't hold someone who isn't capable of sticking it out through the rough patches, and the lack of one wont make a true commitment any weaker.
I'm not saying that I won't ever marry again, just that it's not an expectation or need. I believe that if you love someone and want to be with them forever, you will do it whether or not there is a ring on your finger. However, if I find someone who feels very strongly about being married, I would certainly consider it.
There's a big difference between messy and dirty. I'm messy, too much stuff laying around and I don't want to spend what little free time I have getting everything in perfect order . But dirty, is scary, like not safe to use the toilet or eat anything off the dishes, feet stick to the floor, house smells like dirty socks. That would be a real turnoff for me.
I've already been married and had kids. I have no need for a legal document telling me that my partner is committed to me. I believe I can be in a happy, loving, stable, LTR without the paperwork.
I had no expectations when I first joined the site a few months ago. I have been very happy with the results. I've met some good people, live and on-line that I would never have met otherwise.
Now, my expectations have changed. I'm trying to manage that so they dont become too unrealistic. I have no hopes of marrying anyone, really don't feel a need to do that again. But I do hope to fall in love again. Just need to choose carefully so I don't set myself up for a broken heart.
I'm afraid I'm neither. My career is geographically limiting and he has ties to his area as well. But I really like him, and saying goodbye is heartbreaking. I need some hope.
one guy I dated was a real pig. His bath tub was so dirty, I didn't want his feet to touch mine just knowing where they'd been. He didnt own a mop, broom, vaccuum, any cleaning agents etc. There's messy and then there's mentally ill.
The good news is, the internet provides a much larger pool of candidates for potential relationships. The bad news is, I'm not a very good swimmer.
How many of you have tried a long distance relationship? Did it work? If not, was it related to the distance? What kind of issues did you encounter and how did you resolve them?
I havent had too many bad kissers (at least not since I was a teenager). I find that most guys will follow your lead. You do to them, what you want them to do to you. Usually works.
Think about it. There are 1000's?? of people on this site. Look at the forums and you'll see the same 15 or 20. Not everyone likes them. You could be missing out on all the others if you don't accept an occassional IM.
Not really a yes or no answer. With a friend, yes answer, but keep it short.
On a date, depends on circumstances. Since you can screen calls, you know in advance if its a call you should take, like the babysitter or one you shouldn't like the ex. If you know in advance that you will need to take a call, let your date know so they aren't offended. In any case, keep the call short and to the point so your date isn't left alone while you blabber on.
