Poor bastard, you have my sympathy. I would have dumped my sorry ass ages ago, but I'm not really my type so we never would have hooked up to begin with. Does that mean you reject your own Adavances on yourself?

Whoa now, dating and sex are two different things. I wouldn't want to be stuck with me for life, but I'd totally do me. Especially when I wasn't such a lazy ass and was lifting and boxing. Sometimes I'd be walking by the bathroom mirror to get into or out of the shower and catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror and have an almost uncontrollable urge to run my tongue all over myself. I'm so-so from the neck up, not ugly mind, but not hot either, but with some effort I can get a decently rockin bod going. Not so much that I'm out of my own league, but enough that it's fun to fantasize about
....
....
if I, like, was forced to think about it... or something.

Finishing up the last of our batch of saison. It was alright. Pretty good for the style actually, but it's not really my thing. I like my beer dark and thick, almost to the point you want to chew on it a little. Everyone else says you need something light and refreshing in the summer... weirdos. My cousin won a brewery's contest with a jasmine saison. It was actually really good. Minus the part where I'm apparently allergic to jasmine so it made my nose run like crazy.

No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

DH wants to make a sorghum homebrew. He's gluten free and I think he found a kit recently. If we ever get the basement and kitchen dealt with, he'll go to town on brewing.
He's got a new GF beer, by the way - it's called Acapella (sp?) and it's more of an pale ale style. And made with sorghum.
*-*- As to the thread - I think in some ways it's a crapshoot. I meet my DH because a coworker I was friends with was dating a coworker of DH's, whom he was friends with. They flamed out spectacularly (apparently while on a cruise) after about 9 months. Whereas people started asking me when we were getting married after about 3 months of dating.
We've got 8+ years of marriage and dating 3+ before that. And yeah, there are days when I'd cheerfully divorce his ass. I assume he's also got days like that with me. But on the whole, we're better as a team than we would be apart. We have 2 accidental kids so if we do divorce we'll be stuck with each other anyway.

One of the reasons I like Sum Dum Gai and Loopdilou so much is that while they don't quite remind me of C and I, they very much feel like they would fit in with our group of friends. Sure. Until they asked you to do the kinky stuff. Unless you're into that.

Until they asked you to do the kinky stuff. Unless you're into that. Not into that, but a number of our friends are. And in my experience, people who are in to kinky things are actually much more respectful of boundaries than people who aren't. If they think you might be interested, hints will be dropped, an invitation might even be given, but when you say not interested, no one is mad and the friendship continues without issue.
I guess that goes along with marry the right person- find someone whose kink runs along the same lines as yours. Some of the most successful marriages I know are people in poly relationships.

When I look back and think about the casual way I decided to get married I want to slap my silly self.
I wasn't that young - 24 - so I have no excuse. He was a nice guy, we had fun together, and that, at the time, seemed to be a good enough reason to get married.
I am EXTREMELY lucky DH and I are actually a very good fit. Next year will be the big 30 year anniversary, and I can honestly say I can count the number of times we argued on one hand. Very grateful that I married well despite having put almost no thought into it at all.

If he would have posted that sexy pic with all guns ages ago he would have already gotten it.

I'm still stuck on the babysitter thing. I get that it was more 'just in case'. Whats the going rate to babysit an adult wife and a baby? It might make a great side gig!

Maybe. If I told my wife I was leaving to go babysit a grown woman I'm pretty sure she'd get pissy and say something like, "If you're going cheat and lie about it at least have the common courtesy to spend five seconds coming up with a slightly believable alibi."

You obviously don't annoy Loop nearly enough. I have a friend who's been on the road for at least half the year for the past 3.5 years. He was working at home for 2 weeks earlier this month and she asked him when in the hell he was leaving so she could have peace and quiet back.

He was working at home for 2 weeks earlier this month and she asked him when in the hell he was leaving so she could have peace and quiet back. I know someone that retired twice and both times he went back to work because his wife could not tolerate him at home anymore. She's a lifetime stay at home wife/mom and the house was/is her domain. When he retired he started to take it over and boss her around; she wouldn't have none of that. She said it is one thing to tolerate him a couple of hours a day or on the weekends, 24/7 is a total other level. Last I heard he was renting a small space somewhere and doing consulting work aka lots of golfing. Consulting income is close to nothing my step dad said (and costing money renting the space) but it keeps him out of the house and out of his wife hair. Seems to work for them.

My brother's employer runs 24-7. He says there are guys who only stayed happily married because they work midnight shift. In my friend's case I think the wife is used to him being on the road a lot. She only works part time as a hairdresser. The funny thing about it to me is she apparently wants him gone but he can't have any fun while he's gone. She'll flip out and call him yelling if he does anything like go to a baseball game.

Marry someone who is like the parent you loved. DF has the same qualities and faults of my Dad so now I know why sometimes my mom wanted to kill him. I HATE procrastinators, to me they are liars who just can't admit they don't want to do something so say OK and then never Fing do it!!! GRRRR!!!! But he also has the good qualities of my dad including being a patsy which is why my mom had to have a spine for him.

No, it isn't a good trait but my dad had it as well so I know how to deal with it. Doesn't make it less aggravating but I can handle it. He's a nice man, just too nice, just like my dad.
