I’ve mentioned this roommate dude so many times, but he merits being mentioned again:

My roommate and I both started dating our first boyfriends the summer before our third year of college. Roommate’s boyfriend broke up with her sometime around October, and she got crazy jealous and weird whenever my boyfriend was around. The most memorable incident was her picking through my trash can and counting…

Had a roommate in college who was so filthy that housing had to get involved. She never bathed or did laundry, and would eat takeout in the room and toss the leftovers under the bed to rot. She slept on top of a dark gray comforter that was white when she moved in. The RA finally listened to my complaints when we…

Meredith Grey and Cristina Yang. The way they are fiercely loyal to each, and depicted a strong female friendship that occasionally had bumps due to men, but in no way revolved solely around discussing men.

Omg that sounds awful. I hope it’s resolved soon!

I’ve been fucking since the late 90s. It’s not my favorite position, but imma have to respectfully disagree with you here...

Ginger brandy!?

Don’t judge, but Wine Inna Box. It’s cheap, it’s decent, and (this may be just me, but) it’s more potent than bottled wine. Plus, smaller environmental footprint, so win/win.

Hey Jezzies, whatcha drinking? B. Nektar’s The Dude’s Rug for me. It’s the only cider that is worth a damn. It’s a spiced chai cider that has cloves, cardamom and cinnamon in it, and it is delicious. It’s a shame I can only get it once a year. I mailed a bottle to my brother in Phoenix for his birthday, since he can’t…

I was talking to my mom about possibly breaking up with my long-term boyfriend. I was laying out the pros and cons and how things are stable but not passionate and I think I want more... She cuts me off and says, “Look. You’re pretty enough now, I guess, but you’re no spring chicken. Just lock this one down while you…

“She looks like a clown’s whore.”

Broken Harbor,I think, manages to do what fizzled in In The Woods: a mystery that appears to be supernatural but is ambiguous. In The Woods just flat drops it, and that’s what pissed me off “Oh well, I guess I’ll never know what happened to my friends!”

I loved In the Woods, about 75% of it. The ending pissed me off, though. I thought Broken Harbor was the best of the series.

Aww that’s awesome! My husband and I make our dog play Toby when we dance along to “Dance Magic.” She’s usually not amused ;)

YAY Costume thread! Thanks to my friend that let me use her baby as a prop.

There never needs to be a reason for wine. The sun coming up is a reason for wine.

Gin is an everyday drink

Her hair will most likely darken and become a tad less fine as she approaches the age of five or six.

You’re being way too empathetic and rational for this crowd. There’s a pre-established political orthodoxy in place with this community, and giving the benefit of the doubt doesn’t fit into it.

That said, you’re 100% correct. Human relationships are complex as hell. The wife’s libido could have died for any number of…

Can you do a similar piece with a woman on A.M? The only similar-ish story I found on here was about a woman who actually had an arrangement with her husband who had medical issues. I’d like to see if the responses are similar from the commentariat.
