Good points! Saying no does have its advantages, if you play it wisely.

It sure seems that way!

Good lord that first paragraph is difficult to decipher. Maybe I am just tired though.

Met my bf of almost 2 years on OKC, after swimming through tons of weird messages and going on a bunch of mediocre dates. If might not be the easiest route but it could pay off!

Ugh I hear that.

Haha, we should be crowd sourcing public policy ;)

Agreed, BC is not entirely safe - they can cause physical and emotional difficulties.

OMG. Just made some yeast waffles - I never knew such pleasure. Thanks so much for the tip!

I thought it was beautiful. I am trying not to look too much into it though

Haha fair enough, I see what you are saying. I don't think it's so bad when someone is like open to discussion or new information, you know?

Wow, I never even thought this was possible! Thanks internet!

Yes, and it was when I worked retail. Our shifts were not often on the same schedule so there wasn't too much distraction at work and we ended up dating on and off for the next 5 years. Eventually we almost forgot that is how we met!

Indeed - and yet for many in the US, homosexual couples are the ones making a mockery of marriage.

My case is kind of odd as we moved in after 3 months. We had not talked about marriage at that point and I was moving in half for convenience (his awful roommate just moved out) and half because we spent 7 days a week together anyway. It worked out well, and a year and a half later, we are very happy. We've discussed…

Gosh I'm sorry that happened. I think some people are just embarrassed with displays of affection? I'm not a huge fan of flowers myself but I take it as they were intended, i.e. a gesture of love.

I'm embarrassed to even type this because otherwise he's pretty normal but I think he thinks it's not only bad for children but also something to do with government mind control (sigh sigh sigh). He is open to reason though.

Something about the government? I dunno he's starting to come around on it but I think it was important for him that I heard him out first without dismissing his opinion on the matter completely. So I think your advice is good here, so see why he thinks that and feel that out. He's not dumb, he's just been convinced I…

Ugh this is such a huge issue between the bf and I. He is so dead against vaccinations and said if we have kids he would never consent to their being vaccinated. Furthermore, if I did it behind his back he would leave me. Otherwise he is sane.

Hey, you might want to look into the litter you are using. I have no idea how the two are related but when I switched from the clay stuff to newspaper pellets, my girl's glands were happier. Could have been something totally unrelated though and I am, obvs, not a vet. Could also be a stress thing? Good luck!

They're cute until they take the grossest poops ever. I've got 3 little muffins and when they poo, it's a hazmat situation.
