re: The never married guy. Yeah, that's one potential reason why a guy was never married, and of course there are others. - loosilu Jun 24, 09:27 54
- my bf has never even lived with a chick. i admit, i asked what was up with that. -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:28 53
  - *shrug* i never even lived with anyone before either. and i'm not 25. -- nm - Andie Jun 24, 09:41
  - I am very interested how your first year will go. Living with a woman for the first time is culture shock. - Redmond on a phone Jun 24, 09:38 19
    - yeah, me too. :\ -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:41
    - I'm sure living with a dude for the first time is no walk in the park either. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:39 17
      - She has lived with a man so that was my angle. She knows more what to expect than he does. - Redmond on a phone Jun 24, 09:41 16
        
        you know what i've learned? now i know for *sure* my ex definitely didn't do "at least 50%!" of the household chores - kare Jun 24, 09:44 1
        
        That's cool -- nm - Redmond on a phone Jun 24, 09:47
        
        what's so weird about living with a woman for the first time, out of curiosity? - loosilu Jun 24, 09:42 13
        
        seriously? total change in routine. sharing bathrooms. sharing everything. your house smells like flowers instead of cheetos. you get to watch - kare Jun 24, 09:50 4
        
        yep - it's the sharing that is the big adjustment, for both people. It's different than having a roommate because you share everything -- nm - Roger More Jun 24, 09:53
        
        All good examples. The going out after work is a good one -- nm - Redmond on a phone Jun 24, 09:53
        
        all of that. word. -- nm - TFox Jun 24, 09:52
        
        I'm just asking, having never done it. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:51
        
        The emotional swings for one. When you are dating you don't see them as much. -- nm - Redmond on a phone Jun 24, 09:49 4
        
        dude. guys have moods too! -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:52 2
        
        Hey, I am not giving a report on what sex is higher maint. Just anwering her question from my ppint of view - Redmond on a phone Jun 24, 09:56 1
        
        *narrows eyes* - kare Jun 24, 10:00
        
        oh, I don't do that at all. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:50
        
        1. Remembering to put the toilet seat down. - znufrii Jun 24, 09:42 2
        
        if that's the worst you have to worry about you're gold -- nm - 'lia Jun 24, 09:44
        
        ooooh. yeah, that's cattle-prod worthy. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:43
  - Um, a lot of times, it's the chick who has the hangup against living together. Also, living together is seen by many as a step right before marriage -- nm - con_carne Jun 24, 09:37 11
    - *cues georgia sallelites ~Always no huggin no kissin until I get a wedding ring~ -- nm - 'lia Jun 24, 09:42
    - of course. this conversation happened months ago, and i was just trying to feel out if he was a commitment-phobe, see - kare Jun 24, 09:39 9
      - I don't know about your bf's cultural background, but the concept of living together unmarried is not the norm among the majority of cultures -- nm - con_carne Jun 24, 09:41 8
        
        you really think so? my experience is the opposite amongst friends and family. -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:44 7
        
        OK, I'll spell it out. I'm thinking of WASPs :-) -- nm - con_carne Jun 24, 10:12 1
        
        *gasp* you didn't! - 'lia Jun 24, 10:14
        
        in my family, cohabitation is a one way ticket to hell. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:45 4
        
        my mom specifically told me she doesn't really approve. oh well. -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:47 3
        
        Typically, if it eventually leads to getting married, they forget that pretty quickly. - Spawn Jun 24, 09:58
        
        but she can deal? that's cool. mine can't deal, at all, under any circumstances. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:48 1
        
        yeah, she deals. -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:51
  - but you're giving him the chance to move things to the next level instead of just - 'lia Jun 24, 09:32
  - I never lived with a chick until SheFox... oh wait, not true, but I wasn't dating the other one. -- nm - TFox Jun 24, 09:31
  - "Just never found the right woman." - Will Hunting Jun 24, 09:30 1
    - it's certainly the "right" answer. -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:32
  - Uh... congrats on turning him? -- nm - Spawn Jun 24, 09:30 9
    - dude, what's up with the dickishness lately? did i do something to piss you off? -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:31 8
      - The norm. You have been around long enough to know this. -- nm - Spawn Jun 24, 09:37 5
        
        not really. you used to be pretty cool. -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:37 4
        
        I guess you have opened your eyes. - Spawn Jun 24, 09:41 3
        
        Spawn, man, you used to be about the music. -- nm - Max Jun 24, 09:46
        
        oh. okay. well i'm sorry i didn't give you the benefit of the doubt. - kare Jun 24, 09:46 1
        
        I think he was following up loosi's gay post. "Turning him" as in..making him straight. -- nm - Jim Jun 24, 09:48
      - He's a dick to all of us. Its just a Spawn is a dick thing -- nm - Redmond on a phone Jun 24, 09:35 1
        
        I mock because I love. -- nm - Spawn Jun 24, 09:43
  - what did he answer? I really don't care either way. My mom OTOH would bug the fuck out if I married a divorced guy. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:29 5
    - my gf is half-vietnamese. if she ever meets my racist granny, there will be sparks. - mafic Jun 24, 09:35 1
      - tats don't bother my mom at all for some reason. the only thing that bothers her is sex. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:36
    - ...and the next worst thing would be a guy who had lived with a woman without being married. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:30 2
      - good thing that's her problem and not yours. :) (he just hadn't found the right person) -- nm - kare Jun 24, 09:31 1
        
        oh yeah. No matter what I do, it's wrong. so ... *shrug* -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:31
...or just looking for excuses, period. -- nm - 'lia Jun 24, 09:24 1
- this is my guess. -- nm - loosilu Jun 24, 09:25
