2012 Whats happening Relationship Folks

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.

I think we are going through a growing/strech phase in our relationship. We both were single for well over five years and got into the habit of internalizing and managing on our own. We haven't had the luxury of having someone else there. So its about the logistics of making room for this other person for the long haul. Im grateful its happening now at six months rather than 2-3 years. The good thing is we are committed to seeing this through and want to come out on the other side still together. This is such a learning process.
 
Figured I'd update my "homeless" situation while he's cooking our dinner. He stuck to his word. After my condo flooded last week, I didn't have to take not ONE day off from work. He dealt with the contractors for me for 5 days so that I would not have to use my sick/personal days.

My son and I would go to work/school during the day and then spend evening/nights at his house. Every floor in every room of my house had to be replaced. The hardwoods had starting popping up and the carpet smelled like 50 year old turnip greens...ewww! All of the old flooring was taken up, a mildew treatment was put in and the new flooring was installed. So by Thursday night, I was back in my condo..no bad smells and beautiful carpet. No more hardwood...too many dust bunnies.

I felt some kinda way packing our little belongings and leaving his house Thursday night to go back home. He enjoyed us staying there and we really enjoyed being there with him. Anyway, I'm grateful for him being there for me and my son.

I'm sure I would have worked it out without him, but I'm so thankful that I didn't have to experience that.

Spend the evening with the new guy. I made an awesome dinner. He *loved* it. And then we went out for ice cream, made a fire, watched Game of Thrones and made out. :lol: I'm really digging him....he kisses me just right....
 
So I think we're just gonna go over to my God-parents house. He said he'd make bread pudding as our contribution! :-)
 
Blah. Have to drop in at his family's for Thanksgiving before we go to mine. I hope I don't have to eat twice.

LOL that's cute.

My SO, got caught watching RHOA on Sunday, i was shocked because everytime i turn to it or BBW he'll say "we not watching that, you can go to the other room and watch it"
His reasoning for watching it was, the football game that was on was boring & was flipping & landed on that station. LOL!

He makes a pretty good bread pudding & bourbon/whiskey sauce. I'm not a fan, of bread pudding, but the family likes it so......
 
^ He acts like it's the worst crap ever but he sure will stop and watch it for a good 30 minutes :lol:

Meeting the family tomorrow. Lawd...I hope they drink.
 
He's having a party at his house tonight. His friends are gonna be there. I don't wanna go... I said I'll stop by for a lil minute lol
 
He surprised me and took me to lunch. I wasn't expecting to see him until after the weekend. :spinning:

Sent from my iPhone. Excuse the typos!
 
I wish you all and your SO's/FH's/DH's all a Happy Thanksgiving. I hope it brings you a LOT of laughs, love and memories to build on. xo
 
We haven't really been vibing lately. At my mother's taking a breather from him and idk what he is gonna do tomorrow. Thanksgiving is hard for him cuz his grandmother died on thanksgiving in '06 so if he does stay home i will do what I can to keep his spirits lifted and his stomach full since my mom is givin me some extras :) after that though, we are back to not vibing lol.

Omg. Yes! One day I was at my SO's house and he turned the TV on RHOA. (Before the season started I had jokingly said "I'm going to need you to get into this show so I can watch it when I'm over here :look:") I said "oh, you don't have to put it on that. Put it on what you want to watch." He said ":ohwell: I want to watch this but I was trying to use you as the reason. :sad:" :rofl: :rofl:

He doesn't watch it right though :sad:

Been working all day and will get up early to handle most of the stuff for Thanksgiving. He is supposed to be sleeping in tomorrow, he's been working way too hard lately.
 
Some guy that I currently date asked me whether I missed him. I told him no and he said, "What???!!!! What do you mean?!" I always thought something was wrong (clingy? possessive?) I'm sorry but I don't tell people stuff unless I mean it. He's handsome and sexy as hell but no thanks. Now, he's acting cold and hasn't called (or texted) since earlier today. :nono: :lachen:

Well, get the hell on. I don't chase them I replace them most definitely. What in the world?! In jeezus name! Now I know how men feel when women be acting like that.
 
My first solo turkey day in 8 years and frankly I am beyond thankful for finally leaving a situation that proved unhealthy and untrusting. I may be alone but I'm not lonely. I have peace, quiet, and my sound mind.......and for that I am Thankful!!!!
