Actually, looking back at the poll options, within the last 6 months, I have gone from "living with partner" steadily down the list to "single-not looking."

Ooh - missed that. Not what you'd call a 'clean break', I guess...

Naaaa. Not at all. Can't tell you how much I enjoy coming home and hearing this sound: ______________________________

Yeah, that's right, SILENCE! No nagging girlfriend. And so glad to be rid of the last few girls that I've been dating. UGH! God, what the hell was I thinking. Obviously, the wrong "head" was doing the thinking! :D :(

Oh that was a clean break. Me and that girl had moved out here to Colorado together. We had been seeing eachother for 2 1/2 years.
4 months into our new Colorado home, she comes home and says that she wants to break up. I replied, "I agree with you 100%" She was being rather mean to me.

So she moved out. I started dating other girls here and there. One steadily, then another at the same time. UGH! Got rather irritating. So now I'm at the "single and not looking" stage.

No ill feelings here at all.

gotta admit, im pretty lucky. lauren isnt the nagging type, shes a go with the flo like me.
Must admit I'm pretty lucky in that regard - we're both 'consensus' types when there are 'relationship issues' to be dealt with - so we don't argue as such, just negotiation with both of us willing to concede ground to find resolution. I guess it's the accountant dealing with the engineer - that side of things is rationally dealt with...

Quite refreshing after the 'hand-to-hand combat' of dealing with stuff I've had in previous relationships....
 
We work quite well as a couple too. We're both quite indecisive, and looking for an easy life, so if someone feels really strongly about something, then they tend to get their way. If we both feel really strongly, then we'll hammer it out, and quite often I win because I'm more persuasive, and generally have stronger groundings for my feelings (because if I don't have grounds for my feelings, then my feelings don't exist, so she gets her way).

The only problem is when neither of us have any strong feelings. We can then spend hours doing nothing, because neither of us can come up with a decent suggestion!

We've been together for like 5 years now, so we know each other quite well. I know most of her moods, and she can be quite set in her ways, some of which are completely irrational. I can then sidestep them, or shame her out of them. The best example of this is when she's doing some household chore, and I'm idle, because my chores are done. She will do anything to get me to do some new chore. She can get quite inventive at times, but I know what she's up to so it doesn't work any more!!!
 
I'm guessing kesen said "what?" to everything she said, which made her giggle and wanted him right then and there.
 
im just doing a little sumtin sumtin with the girlies....but they are too exspensive to handle......a lot of maintnance if you catch my drift
 
Living with my girl for the past year and 4 months. Been together for 2 years 5 months. Ummm no marrage plans anytime soon. And no kids *knocks on wood* anytime soon also.
 
Well, I guess I'm a hermit...

The girl that got me into that big controversy thingy in the spring unblocked me on IM and I talk to her a lot...I got 2 classes with her next semester. I doubt that anything will happen but I'm not expecting anything to happen.

Other than that...I donno, don't really care either.
 
Bimmer, what does the "~R" mean in your avatar since it's a pic of a Mini Cooper S?
 
I've got a girlfriend who I will have been seeing for two years in October. She just moved out here from Denver to attend medical school at Northwestern, and I'm considering engagement when (or if) she graduates. But don't tell her that. Ha, ha, ha. She stole my car, too. Stealer!

By the way, if you want to know Snoopy's answer to this question with pictures, PM me. ;)

How long would long-term be?
Good question - given the number of relationships I had self-destruct at about the 6-8 week mark, it would need to be more than.

I guess it's probably more how you consider the relationship. If it's someone you go out with regularly, like but not yet serious about, then that would be a 'dating' girlfriend.

Someone you're serious about, where you might stay over at their place (and vice versa), that would be a long-term girlfriend.

Does that help?

Boomster, you're in denial...and I'm not talking about the river in Egypt. Stop playing GT3 and posting replies on this website and get a life! You post ~9 times a day! That's crazy. 😈
