I'm headed out to lunch with a friend in a little while and bonus baby time with her little one!
In high school I really thought I would be that girl that would get married and still be a virgin. Life changed things.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We suspect that one of the reasons that niece is getting married at 19 is so she can live with her BF. They neither of them have jobs or are in school and are going to be living in the spare room at his parents' house. But both sets of parents don't want them living together--even though marrying an unemployed 25-year-old who still lives at home hardly seems likes a wise life choice.
Signed,
Not Looking Forward to the Wedding on Saturday

I need no date-ma! I just dice-enable. (Trust me. I do. I'm the little devil on their shoulder saying "SHINY!")
I mean, not that I wouldn't mind going on a date, and I've suggested it to the spouse, but we'd have to get a babysitter. (I've been married almost a decade, and with the same person for 13 years at this point. I don't even remember what dating was like. I think it involved lots of wild sex and occasional heartache. But that could be me confusing TV with reality again.)

Wow. Did I ever miss a spirited, educational and LENGTHY discussion.
I must admit, after reading Gud's COMM-ent on a lack of ass hooks vis-a-vis why meetings are so boring, before having read the discussion here, I was envisioning a boardroom version of the hook they used to yank bombing perfomers off stage back in vaudeville. Was I EVER wrong!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I was Ms Serial Monogamist. So I'd fall into bed/dating a person, except for that weird period of almost a year where I sort of skipped the dating part or, rather, I went on dates, but all the people I slept with were people I wasn't dating, and I swear it made sense at the time.
Okay, I guess I was dating the married woman I slept with, but that was just weird. (Her husband wanted some sort of group marriage thing. I was just in it for the hot chick. I determined I'd rather date non-married, uncoupled people for a while and get back to them. During this period of time, she decided she would leave her husband. I am told he felt it ws My Fault. Whatevs.)

Yeah, that's been my experience of the thing.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah. Plus lots of anxiety and confusion.
Huh. I pretty much stopped dating after my last relationship ended. That was before the invasion of Iraq, because I remember arguing with her that it would be a bad idea....

I was serial fuck-buddy girl. The guys always made it clear they were in it for the fun, but I always, every single time, fell hard only to be heartbroken down the line. Joe was (and still is) my longest relationship and first guy I lived with that wasn't platonic.
