2012 Whats happening Relationship Folks

VeryBecoming-

I would wear some jeans and a nice sweater. I would take a dessert, but not a traditional dessert. You don't want to feel like you're competing with Auntie So and So's pie or cake or whatever.
 
Made lots of progress with this guy I've been chatting with for a few weeks. We went to a "going away" shindig on Friday night. He walked me home.....it took us a long long time to get home. :blush:

Last night he made me dinner and we...well...ya know! It was a good morning.

I'm happy. We'll see where this goes.
 
I had a good time last night.

After dinner we went to the arcade and went on every single machine. He put £20 in the change machine and gave me £10 but kept feeding the machines with his money anyway. If he ran out of £1 coins I would take one of mine, put it in the machine and before I closed my purse he'd put in 2x50p coins. He doesn't want me to spend a single penny.
I beat him at arcade basketball and motorbike racing....lol....we are both so competitive....maybe I should've let him win.

Then went back to mine and watched 3 movies (one of them was Think Like a Man!!!)....then kissed for the first time - I had to keep controlling his hands....then sent him home...no you are not 'cuddling' with me all night.
 
Last night every restaurant we went to, was almost closed. We ended up at Bronx BBQ, LOL! We laughed all night about it. So there we were in our fancy clothes listening to Snoop's greatest hits. The music playing was nothing but Hot 97 music. I won't lie and act like we weren't singing right along.

I am just in love with his pretty eyes.
 
This girl is asking my friend to help pay on a warrant :dead: How little class, tact, pride, etc can you possibly have to ask a love interest some bull like that.

A guy I met in my running group. We've been flirting by text for a few weeks. Went out to a get-together on Friday night. He walked me home after and it took us a long time time....:look: At one point, he literally swept me off my feet and carried me! *swoon*

Last night, he made me dinner and I thanked him...well. :grin: He knows how to handle me. I didn't have to tell him what I wanted. I was a happy girl!

He's tall, cute, dry sense of humor. We have similar interests but are different enough that we can learn and teach each other. He's 6 years older than me.....perfect.

There are still a lot of things we need to talk about but for now....it's good. I'm not trying to get my hopes up. I hate being disappointed!

Aww.......... that is GREATTTTT hon! He cooks, cute, carries you, good humor, tall, seems promising. I wish you all of the best! :grin:

LOL @ it taking two runners a long time to WALK home. :rolleyes: Uh huh........... :lol:
 
I love that! I remember going to a party with my dude in the summer and we were on the dance floor and his BFF kept screaming for us to get a room. We never danced just kissed. We did not even realize it until we left that we were on the floor just kissing.

LOL @ the people honking at y'all. I would have honked too!

Where is my C'mon Son! gif. Maybe I would have more empathy if it was a dire bill, or an emergency car situation, but a warrant? :ohwell:
 
Counting down the days till I see the FH! This will be the last thanksgiving apart Lord Willing, I'm ready to be cooking dinner for my man and our family winding down with dessert and wine and quality time :-)
 
He showed me this really cute text that his aunt sent asking if I have any allergies because she wants to make sure she has something I like to eat and drink. Aww!
 
Welp... Either my relationship is falling apart or this is a just a rough patch we have to navigate through. We have to get back to effectively communicating or we are going to sink :nono:

If the majority of your relationship and compatibility is good (75,85,95%) then navigate like a ****:grin:. Learn new methods of communicating, I think people give up too easily personally. It's difficult and could take a lil while, but with both people trying new things it's definitely do-able.

If half or most of your days are miserable, plus this rough patch I wouldnt be hopeful. JMO.

Hm, yeah I should buy a sweater :lol: I'll be there for 4 days. I was thinking a dessert but I'd have to travel with it. Maybe cookies or something. They're also health nuts though...
 
relationships, no matter how positive they are, takes effort from both parties! no matter how much someone could have told me this, it is only now, from being in a relationship, do i truly understand what that means (and looks like). with that said, this past weekend was an emotional roller coaster for us. CA bar results came out friday night and we checked together. scariest 3 mins to boot computer and go to website. he PASSED. both sets of parents are so so proud of him and now my mom is super excited for "her turn" aka for me to pass the NY bar in 2013. no pressure right?

the next day, I (which turns into "we" - something else that I am learning) had to deal with sibling irresponsibility drama and later my mom freaking out b/c she couldn't' get a hold of my dad. I really wish my mom didn't watch the ID channel so much; it has really changed the way she sees the world and I really don't like being drawn into it and her "visyon" (visions). Everyone is fine but goodness, those few hours were tough for me which in turn ended up being tough on SO and I.

we had an amazing belated birthday and passing-the-bar dinner before that but the night did not end as positively as we had both hoped. with me being already vulnerable and sensitive from earlier, he put his foot in his mouth and said a comment that did not go over so well with me. instead of talking it out at the moment (which I am sometimes good at I will say), I just shut down for the rest of the evening. it wasn't the best way to go about things but you know when you just can't talk yourself out of an emotion or emotional response? you're just stuck there and only with time (and rest and maybe a good cry), your emotions releases its hold and you're able to think more clearly. well that was me sat night into sun morning. plus, pms'ing on top of it helped no one.

so (positively) working on us and working on me-in-a-relationship continues. not sure what will happen with SO and I in the future but I am very grateful to be able to self-reflect and grow in this context (and with a supportive person by my side). I am learning new things, both positive and negative, about myself and while it can be hard, I am appreciating the process.
 
Was talking with the Man last night as to what our plans are gonna be for Thanksgiving.
Since we're both working, we'll house hop afterwards. Still deciding whose houses to stop at, we have atleast 6 invites.

Honestly I wouldn't be mad if we just went to work and went home and got in the bed.
 
The grass isn't always greener. Single. In a relationship. Married. Somewhere out there someone is wishing to be where YOU are.
