I don't know that she is as bad as WFF, but I DO have a friend who assumes that I am (or should be) romantically interested in EVERY man that I talk to.
Ex: I just happened to be talking to the youth group guy at church. Friend: You DO know that he's married? Me: Um, we were just talking about Veggie Tales. I really didn't know someone had to be single for me to have a convo with them... |

a)I am dating someone and have been for over a year now. b)She has known me for years and knows that most of my friends are male and that I've never had so much as a make out sesh with any of them. I did piss her off the last time she pulled this because she had been drinking and didn't realize her whisper was not exactly a whisper. The dude just rolled his eyes and I responded with, "Why no, I didn't know he is engaged. I was actually just about to take him to the pool table and yank those pants down. Thanks for the heads up." |

BF has this friend who is dating this girl and they are "THAT couple."
You know, the couple you don't want to hang out with because they get into a ridiculous argument while out and/or cause a scene. Their relationship reminds me of something out of a HS soap opera. He just asked if I wanted to go do something with them and I would rather eat glass. |

Yes, I've told them "you guys are making a scene" and "people are staring" but I don't really think they get it.
They also "break up" every other day. Then one of them comes to one of us, trashes the other person and tells all their business, then they're back together by the weekend. |

Would it be better if there was someone else along, not a date but another friend so at least you could commiserate? Or does it not matter who is there, it is time for some drama straight from an episode of Degrassi? |

I agree on the whole being inclusive thing. It's important to be able to be around your friends, with your bf, and not make them feel all awkward and third wheel-y. |
Holy crap, my boyfriend is the best thing since sliced bread. I am so freaking crazy about him!
:D <--- me at the thought of him |

Or you can just cut them loose, sometimes that's easier, I've done it. |
I think I am more friends with her, but these are more BF's friends than mine.
I told him today that I'd rather eat glass than hang out with them and see them fighting and being dramatic. He didn't care and he went and hug out with them by himself. I think that's what will happen from now on (Drama Couple can hang out with HIM and I'll go do something I want to do with people I can actually tolerate). |

I'm not someone who thinks that we need to do everything together and only hang out with couples (I actually find it nauseating when people ARE like that). Typically, I don't hang out with his friends. This is my first venture into hanging out with BF's friends and we see how well it's worked. lol. There ARE people who get along really well with most of their partner's friends and as a result, they do almost everything together in like, couples groups. That is not us and I'm perfectly ok with that. Other random sidenote: There are a lot of women who get into a relationship and dump their own friends, hobbies, and interests for their boyfriend's friends/hobbies/interests. That is also not me. As much as I like the BF, I will never be into playing Madden. I'm perfectly content to do something else I want to do while he does that. |

I'm friends with many of live-in's friends, but I think that's partially because I moved out here and only knew him, and for the longest time, I met only his friends. Now that I'm making friends on my own, it's a little more balanced. When we were both at Pitt we did not run in the same circles (mostly because he was in undergrad and I was in grad school - I hung out mostly with friends from class). I will say that being with live-in, I have picked up some of his interests. This is especially true of TV shows (and it goes both ways - he would never admit it but he likes Gossip Girl almost as much as I do). At least, my eyes no longer glaze over when he starts talking about troubleshooting crazy dodads and whatnots that I assume have something to do with the intertubes. |
On Monday, I'll have been with my boyfriend for 6 months. :)

^^Congrats!
Dear You: Enough is enough. So many women let their feelings and attachment lead their behavior rather than their values (I include myself in this) and it gets us NO WHERE. Honestly, if I said, "I have the perfect guy for you! He's hard working and makes a decent living and can provide for you. He will also yell at you, demean you, not communicate well, and beat your kids on occasion. But I just know you'll love him." How inclined would you be to marry that one? You'd tell me to get real! Well, that's the situation you're in and you need to get out. Your kids are over 18 so I'm not gonna do my mandated reporter bit but PLEASE stop letting your attachment to him lead you, go with the things you value instead. |
The latest creepy response from Plenty of Fish:
Hello, I saw your profile and am VERY interested! i dont live in conneticut..i dont know why my profile says that! Im a 47 yoa divorced white male and work in fed law enforcement in atlanta georgia but am moving to detroit in the next two months. I requested a transfer.....just getting tired of atlanta!I will actually be back there this week (thursday) leaving Friday, and would love to know more about you! I restore cars and motorcycles, read anything i can get my hands on, mainly history, love anything outdoors, and travel a LOT, be it weekend getaways in an old convertible or to europe!! I am just at home in a farm yard as I am in an art gallery or courtroom. I was born and raised in texas (typical ranch boy!) but joined the army to see the world and the rest is history! I hope I hear back from you VERY soon! tell me more about you! kids? still with you? what do you do for a living? what kind of hours do you work? what do you do for fun? that kind of stuff! i know this is short notice, but i would love to meet you for a drink thursday if you're available! how far are you from the airport area darlin? it could be the start of a great relationship! I hope i hear from you soon! bye for now, Red flags? His profile says he is from Hartford, CT yet he immediately denies this. Why would anybody move from Atlanta to Detroit??? I wrote back and told him that I am not available Thursday but if he's moving here in a couple months we could stay in touch and, even if there's no romantic connection, I'd enjoy showing him around Detroit. He responded with: what time do you plan on being finished thursday? im sort of a night owl!, brian Ummmm... sure dude. I'll meet you, for the first time, near the airport, late at night??? I don't THINK so. Too many things just don't add up. What's the big rush if you really are moving here? Sounds to me like the guy is from CT, not moving to Detroit but is going to be in town and is looking for a booty call. If you're *really* interested in me, you'll stay in touch for a couple months until you move here. If you're looking for a booty call for Thursday night, then you're out of luck from this woman. |
^^^ aw come on. what a dumbass. he shouldn't be allowed to breed :rolleyes:
|
Dee, get off PoF. I'm serious. One of my friends is STILL getting stalked by the nutjob she dated from there - she's had to change her blog, facebook etc etc.
|
That IS creepy.

That is full of win. |
This has the potential to knock me on my tushie. I don't know if I want it.

thanks for the unwanted attention. TRULY appreciate that. :eek:

I woke up in a man's bed for the very first time.
LOL:) I stayed with my best guy friend this weekend and I meant to sleep in the front room but we fell asleep watching a movie in his room. I was totally startled to see him laying there when I opened my eyes. I've never woken up next to a guy before and it was definitely weird. Even knowing full well why I was there, I automatically checked to make sure my clothes were on. :p |
:(
I hate loneliness. |
Dear Midterms,
Please stop eating my boyfriend's life. I could really use a cuddle. <3, Me |
Today, my co-worker showed me her daughter's wedding invitation. Get this: she went abroad to London for school. One day, she was in a London post office standing in line and she asks the man next to her a question. They start talking and he's interested....2 years later, they're getting married. The kicker: It turns out he's an extended part of the Royal Family. His parents are Lord and Lady Something-or-Other, making him the Honorable Something-or-Other. When the parents pass, they will inherit the title of Lord and Lady.
On their 2 year anniversary, they put on the same clothes they had been wearing that day and took their engagement photos in the post office. :) |

Dear Persons to Remain Unnamed,
If you all dislike my choice of formal date, feel free to not interact with us that night as I'm sure there will be plenty of other things occupying your time in the first place. I promised her I would take her and I'm not going to break her heart because you all take offense to her being shy/not getting hammered drunk/not being in a sorority/God knows what else since I can never get a straight answer from you. Sorry guys but this is my call and I've made it. If you guys can give me an objectively based logical argument as to why I shouldn't take her then maybe I'll listen, but I'm not holding my breath for one. |

In fact, the first time we hung out outside of work, I was coming straight from work, so I was wearing Target clothes then. Even on our first date, I ran home super fast, showered, and changed quick quick because he'd only ever seen me in non-Target clothes once or twice before that. I totally remember what he was wearing the first time I saw him on campus, though. |
I know what I was wearing when I met my current boyfriend: a red dress with a halter neckline and an empire waist. And the only reason I remember that is because a) there is photographic evidence because it was his formal, and b) that dress is my "lucky red dress" for some stories that I shall not tell here...
|
I really couldn't tell you what I was wearing when I met my current bf.
